War
You've been fighting this war since before we woke up
It's about damn time that somebody spoke up
It feels like we were together and then we broke up
And these bombs they drop have me choking up
Shrapnel blasting in all directions
When the protectors won't give any more protections
Anger burning a nation down in sections
I can't forget eight minutes and forty-six seconds
I join the fight because there's something worth fighting for
In one voice we take a stand on a knee and scream "no more"
We don't need talk from the ceiling to the floor
We need more action and less words to win this war
The same politicians keep echoing the same thing
They all play the same tune with no lyrics to sing
N' talk about all the new jobs that they'll bring
Then tax us to broke so they can have a new diamond ring
And I know I don't have every answer
And I'm no singer and an even worse dancer
But I know it takes love to kill this cancer
Meeting violence with violence doesn't bring what we're after
And I'm so sick of seeing mothers crying
And they're scared cause' their children are the ones dying
And I'm scared cause' my silence is the same as complying
Tell me what it takes to help and I'll be trying
I'm packing my bags for the fight
I don't see an end in sight
But I'll keep up my end to make it right
I'll join you in war tonight
I know I won't say the right thing every time
All I can do is speak from my heart and my mind
I'll take your hand and I'll give you mine
That goes for both sides of this broken line
So let's come together and clean up this mess
We've been in worse times before and worked with less
Let's leave space for those who need to confess
Unite for peace after so much hate and unrest
I don't want any more bad cops
I don't want any more lives lost
I don't want any more dead cops
I don't want any more lives lost
I'm packing my bags for the fight
I don't see an end in sight
But I'll keep up my end to make it right
I'll join you in war tonight
I'm packing my bags for the fight
I don't see an end in sight
But I'll keep up my end to make it right
I'll join you in war tonight
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
It's about damn time that somebody spoke up

No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
No more
No more violence
No more silence
No more
