WE HAVE A CHOICE

We are all born for such a time as this today
Everyone had enough of the worlds fighting

How long will this selfish greed carry on for?
Are we any different from all our ancestors
Viewing the world for what's it has to hold
Eventually, we became consumers of greed

Anger only hurts those showing the anger

Children's we got to learn from each other
Hope we can learn to overcome our failure 
Of learning from our own holding of our past
Inside every one of us is that willingness  to
Correcting that what was wrong within us all
Even now, we can learn to share as one voice
