Who Wants Peace

What to believe in
In this darkness watchin our beings bleedin
I'm having trouble breathin
Stand up
Fight the night to push the light into sight
Stand tall
Together there is no chance you will fall
Who wants peace?
I take it you all 
But what I've seen, what I saw
We don't strike down 
The things that are wrong
Sing the song 
For generations to come
We are together 
All as one 
My brother please step back
With your knife and your gun
Lay them down and lets talk
If taking my life 
Will stop your tyrannical run
And bring my people some peace 
Then to all of my killers 
Let it be done
