People get ready
|
There's something in the air
|
Creeping in slow so we don't even notice
|
Brothers and sisters beware
|
|
People get ready
|
Open up your eyes
|
Hatred and violence, millions fall silent
|
We don't even hear their cries
|
|
It's time to love one another, we're sisters and brothers
|
What are we fighting for?
|
Too many backs that are breaking, lives being taken
|
What are we killing for?
|
I think it's time for forgiveness, to rise up and end this
|
What are we waiting for?
|
Love teach us the way, to overcome hate
|
And weapons of war
|
|
People get ready
|
What's your loaded gun?
|
Silent indifference
|
Hunger for vengeance
|
Or words from a wicked tongue
|
|
People get ready
|
Only you can choose
|
What you will do
|
When it comes down to you
|
No one else can walk in your shoes
|
|
It's time to love one another, we're sisters and brothers
|
What are we fighting for?
|
Too many backs that are breaking, lives being taken
|
What are we killing for?
|
I think it's time for forgiveness, to rise up and end this
|
What are we waiting for?
|
Love teach us the way, to overcome hate
|
And weapons of war
|
|
Oh my Lord
|
I have a dream
|
Oh my Lord
|
One day we'll see
|
Oh my Lord
|
All men be free
|
Oh my Lord
|
I still believe
|
|
People let's love one another, we're sisters and brothers
|
What are we fighting for?
|
Too many backs that are breaking, lives being taken
|
What are we killing for?
|
I think it's time for forgiveness, to rise up and end this
|
What are we waiting for?
|
Love teach us the way, to overcome hate
|
And weapons of war
|
