Lyrics
White People For Peace
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
East and west could not agree
So their generals gave call
Gathered troops at the border
With guns and ready, drawn and aimed
Each side was praying to a God
To bless them with strength and courage
And it was in his name
Artillery lit the sky on fire
The people sang protest songs
Try to stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
But the battle raged on
Sirens filled the air
And the ground shook with war
Civilian casualties had been a cost
That was predetermined
When interviewed for report
Victims plead in frustration
Their claim
That this was a war without reason
Bureacrats engaged in debate
To try and reach a resolution
The people sang protest songs
Try to stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
But the battle raged on
The broadcast like their prayers
Went unanswered and ignored
God, like the rest of the world
Just watched in silence
There was purpose to be served
There were fortunes to be earned
Before a peace could be called
To stop the fighting
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
Protest songs in response to military aggression
Protest songs try to stop the soldier's gun
But the battle raged on
