No Way We Can Lose
Yes · Essentially Yes (Spec) [2006]
There can be no stopping what is ever changing
Living for the perfect dream, it's time to make a resolution
There will be some peace in our hearts and our minds
We can all find a way to resolve our differences
There's no way we can lose
When we all realize that there are no differences
There's no way we can lose
Ready or not
We can all find a way
We will be forgiving to the ones we love
We will see the blossoming of the new spirit
Shaping everything to our design, we'll build a brighter future
We will free ourselves from the chains that would bind
We can all find a way to resolve our differences
There's no way we can lose
When we all realize that there are no differences
There's no way we can lose
No way we can lose
Ready or not, ready or not
There's no way we can lose
We can all find a way
Ready or not, ready or not
We can all find a way to resolve our differences
There's no way we can lose
When we all realize that there are no differences
There's no way we can lose
No way we can lose
Ready or not, ready or not
Ready or not
No way we can lose
