[Verse 1]
I am not afraid of life
Of the poor man's struggle
Of the killer's knife
I am not afraid of life
Of an insane rage
Of the minimum wage
I am not afraid of life

[Chorus]
I am not afraid of life
I am not afraid of life

[Post-Chorus]
But I see an old lady with a shopping bag
And I wonder, is life a drag?

[Verse 2]
I am not afraid of pain
But it hurts so bad
I feel so mad
No one sees the truth
There's nothing to gain
A life goes down the drain
I don't want to die at an early age
[Chorus]
I am not afraid of life
I am not afraid of life

[Post-Chorus]
But I see a street crazy shivering with cold
Is it a crime to be old?

[Bridge]
Alright!

[Verse 3]
There's the threat of the nuclear bomb
We know it's wrong
We know it's wrong
Is there a chance for peace
Will the fighting ever cease
Mankind's almost out of luck
A maniac could blow us up

[Chorus]
I am not afraid of life
I am not afraid of life

[Post-Chorus]
But I get on my knees, and I pray
Is there hope for the world today?
