Maybe the best way to fight back against the madness engulfing our world is to be good, kind and peaceful.
"It's down to us": Brian Haw 1948-2011 Peace campaigner ☮

lyrics

It's down to us. It's down to us. It's down to us. It's down to us

Say what you like, the world's messed up
There's people trying to kill - truth and love
And the ones we have relied on for support
Have let us down, left us to drown, without a second thought

So who you gonna call in your hour of need
Who is gonna stem this tide of hate and greed
There's no-one left we are bereft of people on our side
At the end of the day

It is down to us; to fight this threat
It's down to us; we'll defeat this yet
It's down to us
At the end of the day, it's down to us

Sometimes it seems as if there is nowhere else to turn
And all that we can do is sit and watch the world burn
And though we know down deep inside we're all one family
We're tricked through fear 'til we can't hear the song we all should be

Cos in post-truth, alt-fact, trumped up world
We need to stand together have our message told
It's not the end, yeah we must send - a song of love and trust
When the chips are down...

It is down to us; to fight this threat
It's down to us; we'll defeat this yet
It's down to us
When the chips are down, it's down to us
It's down to us. It's down to us. It's down to us

When you feel you're gonna fall (It's down to us)
And there's no one left at all (It's down to us)
And your back's against the wall (it's down to us)
Who you gonna call

It is down to us; to fight this threat
It's down to us; we'll defeat this yet
It's down to us. It's down to us

So now we know what we must do it's down to you and me
Stand as one under the sun in solidarity
Not part of the problem, we're part of the solution
Be the change you want to be, be part of the resolution

Perhaps it won't be easy, perhaps we'll have to fight
Perhaps there is a chance if we all unite
If it comes to nought at least we fought as we knew we must
Cos when all is said and done...

It is down to us; to fight this threat
It's down to us; we'll defeat this yet
It's down to us.
Cos at the end of the day
There is only one way
Hear what we say
It is down to us!
