No More

Times up won't somebody save me
The church tried but I don't buy lies
Hear kids cry in the middle of the night
Where gun fire is an every day sound byte
We turn off so we don't hear the screams
Mothers want peace more than they want dreams
Mothers want food more than they want wealth
Soldiers make their life a living hell
Colonization continues this year
Borders pushed back in Palestine brings tears
Kufiyas are worn from ear to ear
Symbol dilutes pride will never disappear
Kids don't know what they wear brings fear
To those that oppose what it all really means
Freedom to a people who are held captive
Told how to live and controlled by the pigs
Right wingers everywhere pushing your ideas on me
I decide what is right and which God I believe
Isn't it enough you control my needs
Making billions everyday with your oil companies?
Economic hitmen employed by the banks
Design for decline now whose the real gang?
Digging deeper in our pockets trying to get all we have
Never ending cycle always wanting more from our land
Gang raped the Earth and left her dying
When the rape kit comes there's no denying

Generations of oppressors
Dirty dictators
Cultural devastators
Freedom imitators
Greedy calculators
Health perpetrators
People put up your fist
For the Peace cultivators
Children educators
People motivators
Freedom Liberators
Rights Activators
Unity creators
We won't go on like this
No More

Will there be Peace?
Never be an equal playing field
When you're always changing up the rules
I jump to continue
Will there be Peace?
Must find a way, must find a way
Will there be Peace?
Refuse to believe my brown skin is worth less
Caught up in a system of backwardness
Will there be Peace?
Must find a way, must find a way

Money disappearing from my hands and I blame the man
Who developed this monetary plan
The more that I earn the less that I make
More vex I get when the tax man take
And I hate, when companies discriminate against Mothers
Trying to put peas on the plate
As if they had no purpose, their work was worthless
Corporations make me nervous
Starting wars that don't make sense
So they can pocket tax dollars in the name of defense
And you can see it from the evidence
When businessmen become Presidents
Like after World War two
My Grandpa vaccinated cattle to prevent disease
What they told him was untrue
Mexico's livestock was killed for America's greed

Dirty dictators, cultural devastators
Freedom imitators, greedy calculators
Health perpetrators
War instigators
People put up your fist
For the Peace cultivators
Children educators
People motivators
Freedom Liberators
Rights Activators
Unity Creators
We won't go on like this!

Must find a way, must find a way
Will there be Peace?
Refuse to believe my brown skin is worth less
Caught up in a system of backwardness
