We Are Not Helpless Lyrics

(Stephen Stills)

We are not helpless, we are men

What lies between us

It can be set aside and ended

Ev'ryday we learn more how to hate

Shut the door

And then we tell ourselves we can't relate

Only to the ones who are the same

Yet even they are diff'rent

And ever so they shall remain

All are strangers, all are friends

All are brothers, brothers

Open up, my friend, and learn to hear

For even lying

When it has nothing you should fear

If you cannot let yourself be known

By anyone

Then you are hiding and not whole

All are strangers, all are friends

All are brothers, brothers

We, your children, we would ask you all

Please do not hide your eyes

And listen when we call

We will whisper, shout or make a scene

We are the answer

For we can live the peace we dream

All are strangers, all are friends

All are brothers, oh yeah, oh yeah

Yes, America's children

Are askin' ev'rybody some questions about how it is

Yes, America's children

Are makin' it hard to look them in the eyes

America's children

Are makin' it hard to live lies, you know, whoa, it is

And America's children

Are diggin' that ev'rywhere children

Are diggin' we live on the earth

We live on the earth, we live on the earth right now

Yes, and it's right on, children of the earth, and it's right on

Children of the earth, and it's right on

Children of the earth and it's right on, right on, yeah

This is what has made our nation free

For life is change

And only blind men cannot see

The new order is upon us now

It is the children

They have the wisdom to be free

All are strangers, all are friends

All are brothers
