Who Needs You

It's been said that the pendulum always swings back and hopefully this is the age where it's stuck in the frame of observance of diversity and appreciation of such. We're all more similar than different.

Lyrics
Who Needs You
(©1994 Don McAvoy, MMP, Inc., ASCAP)
Who needs you
Who needs you
Who needs your kind anyway
* Oh I been walking the street, so many people I meet
Are happy with who they are
But for all that is built, 100 stand around
Plotting how to destroy it and kill
So who needs them
Who needs them
Who needs their kind anyway
* For what they hold in chains, may hold that key
To unlock their guilt and shame
For I feel we've reached this age, in which everyone
Has finally joined this human race
We need you
We need you
We need your kind every day and every way
Makes You Strong
(© 1993 Don McAvoy, MMP Inc., ASCAP )
* You have done me wrong, but I feel all right
You know I'm strong to walk away from your fight
You have stolen all my money, you've been tellin' lies
But it won't be funny when you have to sympathize, oh yeah
*** And if it don't kill me and no, no it won't kill me
It only makes me strong
And if it don't kill me and no, no it won't kill me
It only makes me strong
* Now I don't hate you, there's no challenge to that
But nor do I love you I don't play it like that
Two sides to every story, no one's asked for mine
But ain't that funny how the truth comes out in time
