Verse 1
Yeah, you sit there lookin’ so cool
While the whole show is passin’ you by
Better come to terms with your fellow man soon, ‘cause
The whole world is shakin’ now
Can you feel it?
A new dawn is breakin’ now
Can you see it?

Tell me who’s been foolin’ you?

Now who’s been foolin’ who?
Verse 2
It doesn’t matter just who you are
Or where you’re goin’ or been
Open your eyes and look into your heart, Lord

Can’t you see it?
I said see it, yeah
