Lead the World To Peace

If you ruled with respect
you wouldn't need to be afraid
of what the people say
freedom of speech

we seek here we seek it there
in fact we seek it everywhere
Russia tried to stop the talk
people locked up silence brought

but still the people whispers truth
although behind the silent walls
they couldn't stop the truth of fools
respect can rule the day

American's the people 
can say what's on their mind
American's the people
can talk their live's away

They do not have to worry
they simply have their say
with one they stand together
with freedom speech is great

and yet with Muslim speaking
you are not allowed to think
you dare not speak about it
what will the people think

again with North Korea
you should not have a say
perhaps, they are, there afraid
one day they'll have to pay

Respect can move a Mountain
or gain the crowds respect
respect can build a nation
with praise their cups to drink

teach the people saving
teach them how to work
let them save together
and build your company's

the more your country's earning
the more you gain from tax
the more your country's earning
the more you can relax 

people that have money 
can feed their little sprog's
people that are happy
will thank their loving Gods
