Why so blindly

Do we let dictate

The setting of a sun

Why so lazily

Do we let them rape

The people we should love

Why can’t we raise our voices

Why can’t we take our places

Why do we live in this land of lies

Why do we sit and ignore all the flies

We pretend it’s useless to fight

Well it is if we don’t want a thing

I know that this is not right

You should know what I mean

-

One more bout around the world

Another dawn, last spoken word

A person dies but dies together

Hatred burns inside his brother

These children grow up different skinned

But refuse to love their own true kin

Like they saw the morning sun

The day by peace is only won

-

So settle down and find some silence

Settle down and stop the violence

Children now smile on your brother

Stop the fighting and love one another

-

Hypocrisy does no deed to any man

It has the power to reach under sand

Genocide only takes away beautiful dreams

It only adds more voice to screams

Take all of the tears and settle them here

Take my words, take my words and hold them near
