[Hook]

Feeling frightened, feeling scared, danger lurking everywhere

Feeling helpless, feeling spared, maybe next time I'll be there

Feeling sadness, feeling grief sharing the shock and disbelief

Feeling hopeful, feeling prepared, thankful others really cared

[Verse 1]

Have we lost respect and honor

Danger lurking around each corner

A new generation fallen from grace, feeling lost and out of place

With no respect for our freedom or life

Expressing loneliness, fear and strife

Victims fall and passers by cling to loved ones wondering why

Values change but faith must prevail

We can't live our life controlled by blackmail

Choose associations and do what you should

Encourage others to always do good

Don't get distracted by fame and attention

Decisions today have a lasting impression

On those who admire us and want to conform

Their opinions of us will seem the norm

[Hook]

Feeling frightened, feeling scared, danger lurking everywhere

Feeling helpless, feeling spared, maybe next time I'll be there

Feeling sadness, feeling grief sharing the shock and disbelief

Feeling hopeful, feeling prepared, thankful others really cared

[Verse 2]

Give the best in all you do, day by day good deeds accrue

Those that need you help the most, are often fast to even boast

Deep inside where fear resides, true hope lingers awaiting the tide

Where confidence is lacking

Never sharing or giving, never even laughing

Their tears of fear hidden deep inside

Are swiftly and boldly set aside

When realizing a friend who really cares

Stands by their side and really shares

Emotional healing of scars left by others

Brings freedom and relief that long has been smothered

[Hook]

Feeling frightened, feeling scared, danger lurking everywhere

Feeling helpless, feeling spared, maybe next time I'll be there

Feeling sadness, feeling grief sharing the shock and disbelief

Feeling hopeful, feeling prepared, thankful others really cared
