What's the Solution

Some Americans Don't want retaliation Call them Peace-sayers... Others want blood now Bomb them back to the stone age Call them War-mongers... And some are just scared They want to be safe from harm Call them what you will... All our reactions Are endless and as many As we are diverse What's the solution? How can we end the evil? And stop the killing? If we do nothing They will attack us again Many more will die... If we do something They could attack us again But not easily... We have to stop them They will NOT just go away Or negotiate They hate us because We have what they do not have Peace, freedom, justice It's our heritage But we became complacent Took things for granted... That terrible day Evil stabbed us in the heart And opened our eyes We were awaken From our utopian dreams To reality...
