Lyrics Toward the Fray - The Infamous Stringdusters

Death unfolds before my eyes
A frightened man's unheeded cries

People, oh, people, trapped beneath the knee
Of the law gone wrong and the force of history

Another too soon laid to rest
Some folks weep, some beat their chests

People, oh, people, let us stand on freedom's side
For there can be no peace wherever justice is denied

As cities burn in summer heat
Temptation bids us to retreat

People, my people, there is no other way
To love, except to turn our timid souls toward the fray

There is no other way
To love, except to turn our timid souls toward the fray
