If You’re Out There Songtext
von John Legend

If you hear this message, wherever you stand
I′m calling every woman, calling every man
We're the generation
We can′t afford to wait
The future started yesterday and we're already late

We've been looking for a song to sing
Searched for a melody
Searched for someone to lead
We′ve been looking for the world to change
If you feel the same
Then go on and say

If you′re out there
Sing along with me
If you're out there
I′m dying to believe that you're out there
Stand up and say it loud
If you′re out there
Tomorrow's starting now
Now, now


No more broken promises
No more call to war
Unless it′s love and peace that we're really fighting for
We can destroy hunger
We can conquer hate
Put down the arms and raise your voice
We're joining hands today

Oh I was looking for a song to sing
I searched for a leader
But the leader was me
We were looking for the world to change
We can be heroes
Just go on and say

If you′re out there
Sing along with me
If you′re out there
I'm dying to believe that you′re out there
Stand up and say it loud
If you're out there
Tomorrow′s starting now
Now, now
Oh now, now, now


If you're ready we can save the world
Believe again
It starts within
We don′t have to wait for destiny
We should be the change that we want to see

If you're out there
Ohh
If you're out there
And you′re ready now
Say it loud
Scream it out

If you′re out there
Sing along with me
If you're out there
I′m dying to believe that you're out there
Stand up and say it loud
If you′re out there
Tomorrow's starting now
If you′re out there
If you're out there
If you're out there

If you hear this message, wherever you stand
I′m calling every woman, calling every man
We′re the generation
We can't afford to wait
The future started yesterday and we′re already late
