Michael Jackson — Shout

[Intro] This is not your ordinary record Record, Re-re-record, re-re-re-cor-cor-cord (Hit it!) [Verse 1] Ignorance of people purchasing diamonds and necklaces And barely able to keep the payments up on their lessons And enrolled in a class and don't know who the professor is How low people go for the dough and make a mess of things? Kids are murdering other kids for the fun of it Instead of using their mind or their fist, they put a gun in it Wanna be a part of a clique, don't know who's runnin' it Tragedy on top of tragedy you know it's killin' me So many people in agony, this shouldn't have to be Too busy focusing on ourselves and not His Majesty There has to be some type of change for this day and age We gotta rearrange and flip the page Livin' encased like animals and cannibals Eatin' each other alive just to survive the nine to five Every single day is trouble while we struggle and strive Peace of mind's so hard to find [Chorus] I wanna shout, throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout You know it makes me wanna shout Throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout, come on now [Verse 2] Problems, complications and accusations Dividing the nations and races of empty faces, a war is taking place No substitution for restitution, the only solution for peace Is increasing the height of your spirituality Masses of minds are shrouded, clouded visions Deceptions and indecision, no faith or religion, how we're livin' The clock is tickin', the end is comin', there'll be no warnin' But we live to see the dawn [Bridge] How can we preach, when all we make this world to be Is a living hell torturing our minds? We all must unite, to turn darkness to light And the love in our hearts will shine [Verse 3] We're disconnected from love, we're disrespectin' each other Whatever happened to protectin' each other? Poisoned your body and your soul for a minute of pleasure But the damage that you've done is gonna last forever Babies being born in the world already drug addicted and afflicted Family values are contradicted, ashes to ashes and dust to dust The pressure is buildin' and I've had enough [Chorus] I wanna shout, throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout You know it makes me wanna shout Throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout, come on now [Verse 4] Problems, complications and accusations Dividing the nations and races of empty faces, a war is taking place No substitution for restitution, the only solution for peace Is increasing the height of your spirituality Masses of minds are shrouded, clouded visions Deceptions and indecision, no faith or religion, how we're living The clock is ticking, the end is coming, there'll be no warning But we live to see the dawn [Chorus] I wanna shout, throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout You know it makes me wanna shout Throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout, come on now [Outro] Shout Shout Shout Shout Shout, throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout You know it makes me wanna shout Throw my hands up and shout What's this madness all about? All this makes me wanna shout, come on now Shout
