Brothers and sisters
We only have one world
Regardless of what we see
With our physical human sight
We are the same in the darkness of night
Hate spreads and society dreads
Spilling blood till the streets run red
Inner conflict grows as the wars grow old
So many question truly what they know
Fighting humanities battles of every shore
While the thirst of our world hungers for more
Inside every family brothers and sisters fight
In the world it’s the division and blindness that jades our sight
Long ago as the world conquered and chained men to be slaves
That Neolithic thinking has overshadowed all our days
Our existence threatened merely by the words we say
While the faith in humanity slowly fades away
Brothers and sisters let this be our battle cry Change will take more than the tears from our eyes
As we remember hatred planted only grows lies
