Lyrics of Vive la vida

In this world there is so much anger
Our lives are in danger
We are all living in fears
We've got to stop the tears

Life is for living
So why must we wait?
We all need some loving
So then why do we hate?

In south africa, things are still the same
The face of humanity still hasn't changed
People have to fight to live together
And share with one another

Life is for living
So why must we wait?
We all need some loving
So then why do we hate?

We can change this to a better place for all
If we listen to others when they call
Give a shoulder to lean on when they fall
Let us bring down the apartheid wall

Innocent people pay with their lives
'cause the truth, it cuts like a knife
Mandala's life is wasted in jail
Raise your voices for freedom

Life is for living
So why must we wait?
We all need some loving
So then why do we hate?

Life is for living
So why must we wait?
We all need some loving
So then why do we hate?

Life is for living
So why must we wait?
We all need some loving
So then why do we hate?
