Assalaamu alaikum
Give Peace A Chance..
Looking into the small broken mirror
I know I should’ve written this letter sooner
I see the children grown taller
Has it been this long?
These nights are getting colder
I wish the war were over sooner
The photo of you and the children
Help me to hold on
And deep inside I know - this war is wrong
Our leaders knew this all along
They knew we would find nothing
Baby, what’s going on?
This war is so wrong
Let me just share something with yah
I use to think I knew what I was fighting for
I’m trying so hard to keep my head together
I thought I came here as a peace maker
But baby, I ain’t so sure, anymore
For the reason we got into war
But what’s going on
Is all wrong
I get this sick feeling that this war is based on a lie
I’m not sure if I’m the only one but I’m asking ‘why’
We have to see grown men cry
And walk the streets to see children die
We fight for a cause that doesn’t exist
And still our leaders persist
To take a knife
And cut our own wrist
Is there something I missed?
Cause it looks like we are the terrorists
After all this craziness
We find no evidence
We should’ve given peace a chance
We should’ve given peace a chance
Give Peace A Chance..
