Fires are burning, up the forests
down along the amazon
there's children starving in guatemala
they're just barely hanging on
And i pray they'll find the answer
that there's a way to right the wrong
and lord while your listen
could i mention
some troubles of my own
i got problems right here at home
A teenage boy in mississippi
brings his daddy's gun to school
a little girl in new york city
buys cocaine for momma to use
And i pray they'll find the answer
that there's a way to right the wrong
and lord while your listen
could i mention
some troubles of my own
i got problems right here at home
My wife is crying
our baby's fighting
a battle she may not win
the doctors doing
all that he can
god now it's all in your hands
And i pray they'll find the answer
that there's a way to right the wrong
now i'm just one man a grain of sand
in a troubled world i know
but i've got a problem
right her at home
I've got a problem
