What is peace?
Does it involve hate?
Does it involve ignorance?
Is this what it is all made of?
The breaking up of the church’s different denominations
Excuse me people
But this is not a competition
For who can preach the word of God better
Because it just becomes bitter.
Where does peace live?
Is there no place for it?
But is this what we look forward to?
A war started just because no one can tell the truth?
So I would like to know where did peace go?
But will we ever know
The feeling of peace?
Or are we just going to sit back and watch?
As our future becomes a knot
Who will stand up and fight?
When everyone is full of fright
Because this is not right
All this fight
Will lead nowhere
Except mayhem
While the innocent suffer
For the wrongful judgment of others
So ask each other
Who will be the one to stand up
And fight for one another?
