In Peace We Cry

The world we live in, 
confuse even best,
wisdom worth little,
with new daily tests,
learn as you move,
all change so fast now,
don't get stuck in a groove,
one way slaughtered cow.

Be not the sheep,
following blind,
seek everyday truth,
it's out there to find,
you're mind's are your own,
they scare you into control,
weak feel your bone's,
but strong are your souls.

There it lay waiting,
deep down inside,
buried anticipating,
when you no longer hide,
please don't swallow words,
the money men send,
they'd love you in herds,
your will must not bend.

Follow the law,
remember law follows you,
our voice will grow stronger,
when we're not just a few,
one voice can echo,
the million's shout,
don't be scared to speak up,
let the old freedom out.

They say we have freedom,
of speech, feet and will,
but you'll get locked up,
for not swallowing that pill,
beware their forked tongue's,
those sick by their power,
if they were speaking the truth,
then why would they cower.

Peace be the way,
peace be the shout,
peace be the end,
to those who cast doubt,
peace be the truth,
peace conquer fear,
with these peaceful words echo,
hate must end here.
