Turn the Fire Into Water

When there is no peace, justice or equality
Turn the fire into water and defend yourself
Your right, your home, leave that alone
Turn the fire into water and defend yourself
Living and striving, free from false pretense
Flowing, not running. Defend yourself.
Turn the fire into water
Open your eyes and hearts to what’s there
It’s all a process, left in your care
Turn the fire into water and defend yourself 
Devour and not replenish is a fools dread
Turn the fire into water instead.
