New Kicks - (Long Version)

Peace now
Peace now
Peace now
Peace now

We are gathered here, we come from so many different places
From different identities, different cultures
Different backgrounds, different religions
And yet we can gather, under the guides of peace now
Peace now

We say no to war
(Peace up, war down)
We say no to war
(Peace up, war down)
We say no to war
(Peace up, war down)
We say no to war
(Peace up, war down)

We made it, we're here
We're here right now and we're not leaving

Now I hear you, I hear you people
Now I hear you, I hear you people
Now I hear you, I hear you people
Now I hear you, I hear you people

We have reports that more and more people are just taking on ramps on the bridge
And are just taking over it
I mean, I'm just

This is what democracy looks like
(This is what democracy sounds like)
This is what democracy looks like
(This is what democracy sounds like)

Reports from protests from among Georgia, Amsterdam, and Fort Lebanon, East Seymour, Florence, Italy, London, Milano, Italy, Paris, France (peace now)
Dozens of cities in Spain
Reports in Athens, Georgia and Austin Texas, West ford, Virginia, Charleston, South Carolina, Colorado Springs and Defiance, Ohio
Denver, Colorado as well as Durango
Geneva, New York and Houston, Texas, and also Massachusetts, in Hawaii as well
Lawrence, Kansas, uh Los Angeles, California
And I am only naming a few

Peace now
Peace now

And as Eleanor Roosevelt said,
"It isn't enough to talk about peace, one must believe in it
It isn't enough to believe in it, one must work at it"
And we here today are working at it

This is possible, and even necessary
So grab the sword, pick up the hammer and the saw
And let's build a better world

No blood for oil
We will not be violent
No blood for oil
We will not be violent
No blood for oil

We will not go to war, for a selected president who wasn't even elected

We must stand unbroken, unbound and unashamed
We need healthcare
We need education
We need freedom in this nation
Freedom in damnation
Freedom in damnation
Freedom in damnation

Thousands of people have taken over 3rd Avenue and are marching North
The crowd stretches at least fifteen blocks from 44th street to 59th street
The police have just simply given up

This is what democracy looks like
(This is what democracy sounds like)
This is what democracy looks like
(This is what democracy sounds like)

We will not sell out
We will not back down
We will not compromise
We will go forward
Until peace is on the world's agenda

I started a theory that there were no more heroes in the World
But today, I see all the World's heroes standing before me

We say no to war
(No war)
We say no to war
(No war)
We say no to war
(No war)
