MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Writers: 

Carole King, Carole Bayer Sager and MC Lyte

Lyrics: 

It's not my business, it's not my place
And it's not my child and I've run out of faith
It's not my problem, it's not my race
Why don't you just stop trying to push it in my face

Problems are problems we all have to solve
I dare you say that you won't get involved
You put us here in this state of confusion
Now you wanna leave 'cause it looks like we're losin'
I've got news for you, you've got no choice
Don't let us down and give up, we need your voice
We can work it out, it's up for debate

It's too late, baby

I can't make a difference
Leave me my indifference
Nothing's gonna make a difference
So I tell myself

Now what I tell myself is the sun still shines
And although it's hard you gotta keep that in mind
There's a whole lot of children depending on you
Left things messed up, we still gotta make do

News at ten, world attack, gangsta kid got shot in the back
Peace is dead of a heart attack
You lock the front door, they come in the back

What about the boy that's getting educated
What about the girl that just graduated
The ten o'clock news is way overrated

I can't make a difference
Yes, you can
Leave me my indifference
We need you
Nothing's gonna make a difference
You gotta try
So I tell myself
So you tell yourself
So I tell myself

Weren't you the one who said, you've got a friend
Weren't you the one who said you'd stay to the end
I can't make a difference
Weren't you the one who said, you've got a friend
Weren't you the one who said you'd stay to the end
I can't make a difference
People like me believed people like you
I'll never give up, and neither should you
It's not too late
