I am not afraid of life 
Of the poor man's struggle of the killer's knife
I am not afraid of life 
Of an insane rage of the minimum wage 
I am not afraid of life

I'm not afraid of life
I'm not afraid of life

But I see an old lady with a shopping bag
And I wonder is life a drag

I am not afraid of pain but it hurts so bad
I feel so mad 
No one see the truth 
There's nothing to gain 
A life goes down the drain
I don't wanna die at an early age

I'm not afraid of life
I'm not afraid of life

But I see a street crazy shivering with gold 
Is it a crime to be old?

There's the threat of the nuclear bomb
We know it's wrong, we know it's wrong
Is there a chance for peace? 
Will the fighting ever cease?
Mankind's almost out of luck
A maniac could blow us up

I'm not afraid of life
I'm not afraid of life

But I get on my knees and I pray
Is there hope for the world today?
