Love & Peace

Love & Peace

Guns
We dont need

People
will only bleed
 
Love and Peace
different creed

Strife
division
We seem to be
on a collision

Lot of smack
being said
do you really think
they care
if your alive
 or
 if your dead

They want to awaken
the beast inside
They want to see
whos on
the throne

Brothers and sisters
that confide
know their
not alone

Where were the patriots
when they deny the constitution
All one hears
is revolution
but no resolution
no solution

They like to parade their guns
for everyone to see
They have shown them
to you
they have shown them
to me

We dont hear about peace
we dont hear about love

We dont hear much
about the values
of our Lord
whos from above

Violence and hate
will only perpetuate
more death and misery
oh why cant they see

To many listen to clowns
vying for the spotlight
instead of using their brains
and
holding their loved ones tight

They loathe and dispise
All who realize
they are simply feeding the beast
inside

Cults of personality
fashion police
war and fearmongers
very few speak of
Love & Peace

Redneck
Paranoid socio and phsycopaths
each one with a gun
each one saying
run rabbit run

They may call you
a passivist
They may call you a freak
because
love & peace
is all that
you seek

They will call you
a hippie
or a stoned punk
but each one of them
has a gun
and they are always
drunk

Dont listen to mindless drones
dont listen to Alex Jones
Dont fall for foolish stunts
just follow your gut

Phsyops being played
on us all
but
dont let that be
your downfall

Life is to short
enjoy it
while you still can
you will be a better woman
you will be a
better man

I understand
all to well
I hear
the patriots bell
but
I also
smell that smell

We all know
whats going down
it's happening in every city
it's happening in
every town

War for your mind
War for your soul
and
it's taking a heavy
toll

Hold your ground
turn the other cheek

We know who
get's this world in the end
it's the meek

Times of trouble
times of toil
the lies
make our blood boil

dont give in to the anger
dont give in to
the hate
 stop playing their mind game
before
it's to late

Our Lord died on
the cross
for me
and for you

He did it for Love
not
the red white and blue

Lay your fear and anger
at the foot of the cross

let Jesus Christ of Nazareth
be your guide
and
be your boss


2009 Howard C Holbert
