God
They say for Muslim, Christian and Jew
That we worship the same single God
And that Jerusalem was the centre of religion
But there are differences in these religions
Where we believe different things
We should all be able to believe
What we want to believe for our God
So I wonder why these religions
Cannot preach tolerance to each other
In peace to go about our individual lives
Where the presence of God can be mapped
In the frontal lobes of our brains
To contemplate what God means to us
And not bring war down on each other.
