Go In Peace
Go in peace
our tommy is empty
our pocket is empty
our food storage are so empty
our fridges is cooling empty
our salaries last too empty
our hopes are running empty
yet at the end of every
church mass the priest
always ask us to
go in peace
go in peace
our economy is leaving us to nothing
our resources is been controlled to nothing
our society is hiding us nothing
our schools are close for nothing
our hospitals are old for nothing
our old are forgotten for nothing
our salaries are good for nothing
yet every church service
the big church auditorium
is filled with confuse people
whose lifes are left for nothing
and still at the end of the church
the priest always tell us to
go in peace
go in peace
yes I wish we could
I wish other side the church door
our life could be a peace full one
I wish our world was peace full
I wish our right was given peacefully
I wish our life was dealt with peacefully
I wish just outside that church door
we could find that very peace
the priest always send us to
at every mass end
go in peace
yes I will
when that very change
that very Cry's
that very hopeless
that very serious important needs
that very suffering
that took us to the church
is eliminated and chase
away from our lands
our communities
our life
then tell the priest
I said that will be the
very appointed time to
go in peace
