Tell me why do we fight, stay away from what's right,
extinguish all the light that's within us?
Why can't we already see what could be if we'd agree
to let our hearts free, love our enemies, because we must?
We don't need to make one bleed, we succeed with love to lead,
help the weak, we can feed those who are starving.
The world depends on love and friends, no bloody hand can make wars end,
I know we can get along and end all suffering.

Tell me what made us shut up, not give a fuck when someone's struck?
What we got is based on luck and that's not alright.
Believe in peace, make harm cease, we don't need these hateful deeds.
Can we not at the very least keep kindness in sight?
What's this war and bloodshed for? Don't need more closing doors.
Selfishness is at the core, but we can improve.
Stop to hate, it's not too late, but don't wait, don't hesitate,
change the fate of the human race, show them the truth.

Tell me when things are better than now, yeah, can we be friends?
Can we end us pretending there's no hope?
Love one another, sisters and brothers, care for each other, don't be a bother,
be friends and lovers, we can go farther, don't want to need to cope.
Yes, I say it'll be okay if we stay on the right way,
don't need to make anyone pay, let us forgive.
Forgiveness and nothing less can clean this mess, I'm serious.
That's the quest, so do your best. United we'll live.

Tell me how you feel now, scream it out, clear and loud,
it's time to shout what love's about. Make love, not war.
Flower power, no gun powder, the world's our big shared house, yeah.
No one has to win this hour, let's end in a draw.
Let's rewind to a child's mind, when we were blind to why people fight.
Weren't we taught to be kind? What happened to that?
One more thing for memorizing: Every life is worth something.
Now let's begin to start listening to where our heart's at.
