every day I wake up and turn my phone on
I read the news of the day just as it's coming down
I do my best not to let it get me down
I try to keep my head up but this is Babylon
this worlds in crisis we try to fight it this changing climate
with scientists and the politicians divided by it
so many ways we can solve it but they will never sign it
this mountains tumbling down but still we try to climb it
it's in the torah quran and in the bible
love is the message but somehow we've turned to rivals
it's come to people always picking up their rifles
another school getting shot up homicidal
some people trying to look fly
some people trying to get high
some people losing their mind
some people trying to get by
when you look in my eyes you see the sign of the times
we all looking for the same thing
[CHORUS]
but what if this song was number one
would it mean that love had won
would it mean that the world was saved
and no bombs are being dropped today
and what if everybody had a job
and nobody had to break a law
what if everyone could say
that it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be ablive today
oh oh oh oh
no matter what they say
[VERSE]
people used to feel safer when they would hear a siren
like help is on it's way but now they only think of violence
another youth in the streets and police is in the conflict
and now we hear the guns click
ebola crisis and ISIS is taking heads off
a drones bombing the village and now the kids all
signing up to be soldiers cus they are willing now
to do the killing now
but are you willing now
some politicians out there making up some problems
and trying to tell the people that they can solve them
with TV shows and sound bytes and quotes
but everybody knows that it's all about the cash flow
they're telling you and me, they're making progress
but tell it to the millions of jobless
it's like a players club with billions of dollars
to get the votes you gotta make it rain in congress
some people trying to get high
some people trying to look fly
some people losing their minds
some people trying to get by
when you look in my eyes you see the sign of the times
we all looking for the same thing
[CHORUS]
but what if this song was number one
would it mean that love had won
would it mean that the world was saved
and no bombs are being dropped today
and what if everybody had a job
and nobody had to break a law
what if everyone could say
that it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
and we all say
[OUTRO]
one day, one day
one day, one day
one day we all will sing
that it's good to be alive today
one day, one day
one day, one day
one day we all will sing
that it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
oh oh oh oh
yes it's good to be alive today
[Instrumental]
and I say
one day, one day
one day, one day
one day we all will say
that it's good to be alive today
one day, one day
one day, one day
one day we all will say
that it's good to be alive today
