Be Not Always

作词 : Michael Jackson/Marlon Jackson

作曲 : Michael Jackson

Always be not always and if always,

bow our heads in shame.

Always, please be not always.

And if always,

bow our heads in blame.

'Cause time has made promises,

just promises.

Faces, did you see their faces?

Did they touch you?

Have you felt such pain?

To have nothing,

to dream something,

then lose hoping.

Is not life but lame?

But time has made promises,

just promises.

Mothers cry,

babies die helplessly in arms

while rockets fly

and research lies in progress to become.

But what of men are flesh and blood?

We turn our backs on life.

How can we claim to stand for peace

when the race is armed in strife,

destroying life?

Always, be not always.

But if always,

bow our heads in shame.

Always, please, be not always.

'Cause if always,

bow our heads in blame.

'Cause time has made promises,

Death promises.
