It's in the paper every day
You see it in the headlines and you feel so sick
As another life leaves this world - this world so full of hate - but short!
Short on compassion, short on humanity
Asking myself in vain, shaken by the shock…
Do we even have a chance?
I don't want to die
I don't want to kill
We are all human
It's time to prove it
This is a plea for peace, world peace
To the oppressors of the world and to…
To the leaders of nations,
Corporate profit takers,
To the every day citizen
Greed, envy, fear, hate- the competition has to stop!
When you see someone down - now is the time to pick them up
Set our difference aside and never look back!
I don't want to die
I don't want to kill
We are all human
It's time to prove it
Isn't everybody tired of the fighting?
Isn't everybody tired of the Killing?
Isn't everybody tired of the Dying?
Isn't everybody tired of the Hatred?
Isn't everybody tired of the Violence?
"So even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream" "we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children — black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics - will be able to join hands" "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
I don't want to die
I don't want to kill
We are all human
It's time to prove it
You see it in the headlines and you feel so sick
