In a world of winners and losers

Some are used, some are the users

It's a push and shove race

Of trying to get ahead

In the dust of all the confusion

We make a choice, truth or illusion

Will we listen to lies

Or hear what the father says

[Chorus]

We are running in a human race

Where nobody wants to settle for second place

But we've got to run it at a different pace

'cause the first will be last

And the last will be first

At the end of the human race

In a day when values are changing

What kind of ground are we really gaining

Who are we trying to serve by going the extra mile

We can't trade the truth for the fashion

We've got to live a life of compassion

And those we touch are the prize

That waits at the finish line

[Chorus]

We are running in the human race

We must run it at a different pace

'cause we'll all meet the father face to face

At the finish line of the human race

[Chorus]
