Peace To One and All
Be careful
I said carefully come nearer
Be careful
I said carefully take my sword
Be careful
I said carefully read my lip
Be careful
I said carefully draw my sword
Be careful
I said carefully pierce my body apart from my soul
Be careful
I said carefully send me there now...
Why do you withhold?
Be careful
Have your sword, shield it
And have your seat
Politics has not completely darken my heart
I still sense the part I belong
I know I aren't born this way
I know I aren't call to this way
I know God don't support my way-
Bloodshed day and night
All in the name of satisfying
Whims and caprices of the few
The world led with the words of the opportunist
And built by struggles and sacrifices of the full
Since you are now born again
Be careful
I said carefully come nearer
Be careful
I said carefully take my sword
Be careful
I said carefully read my lip
Be careful
I said carefully draw my sword
Be careful
I said carefully pierce my body apart from my soul
Be careful
I said carefully send me there now
Why do you withhold?
Be careful
Have your sword, shield it
And have your seat
Politics has not completely darken my heart
I still sense the part I belong
I know I aren't born this way
I know I aren't call to this way
I know God don't support my way-
Bloodshed day and night
All in the name of satisfying
Whims and caprices of the few
The world led with the words of the opportunist
And built by struggles and sacrifices of the full
Since you are now born again
Be careful
And carefully convey my message to those privilege few
Be careful
And don't change my words
Be careful
And listen carefully
Be careful
And tell them I said...
Peace be upon thou
That values this singular word in action
Who give room for this course to thrive
And carry the day
Peace be upon those
That gives it a chance
The Word in question is PEACE
Peace and Unity is what I preach
Carefully
Convey my message to one and all.
