Why must we resort to war when we meet resistance?
Does war give us that much greater assistance?
Our politicians will use the word evil when they speak of our foe
But our foe prays to God - they like us - yearn for a desire to know
We are told we must fight for our country, and keep it strong.
Let’s face it; we all have our own sense of right and wrong
Freedom is only a word used by tedious politicians
To Americans freedom has always brought about a coalition
Certainly, politicians are free - with their positions, wealth, and fame
To them freedom is personal - a whole new ballgame
I believe I speak for all of humankind when I say" freedom is to serve"
To serve requires love,- this is what must be preserved.
E
nlighten us and show us the way
N o way, - are we to be led astray
E choes from the cries of yesterday’s heroes
M en who played the part of lonely desperadoes
