Shadowboxing

We came from the same source, what ails you?
Why do you hold onto this game like it's the truth?
I've spent half of my damn life caught fighting you
Like a shadow on the walls dance of mirrored moves

I tried to heal your pain, i tried to sooth
All the traumas dealt to a wounded youth
We have to reconcile before the hate consumes
She told me not to fear for the enemy is you

You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love
For your enemy is you

Consecrate the hate and all the hurt
And hold them as the greatest lessons learnt
From ashes once we came and we will return
We stand united by our fate here on earth

You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love
For your enemy is you

So run
With open loving arms to all you hate
Hold it to the light & consecrate!
You have to get down upon gracious knees
And make sweet sweet sweet love to your enemies
To your enemies
To your enemies

You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love your enemy
You've got to learn to Love
For your enemy is you
For your enemy is you
