AJJ - This Is Not a War lyrics

This is not a war It's a conversation about what people really need Fear is a poison It breeds violence And apathy and greed So people occupy the streets So they can occupy the hearts of the fearful This is not a war It's a conversation about what people really need This is not a movement It's a body's immune system reacting to a disease It's been trying to cure cancer with echinacea Vitamin C and lots of sleep Now the tumor got so big That the blood cells have started to speak This is not a movement It's a body's immune system reacting to a disease This is not a protest It's a tortoise slowly pushing through a race I hope the tortoise keeps its patience While the hair continues to pepper spray its face Unconditional positive regard to the ones who hurt you They're just scared This is not a protest It's a tortoise slowly pushing through a race There is no enemy there's only people that also love their families And they're scared that they won't have enough Long after they are deceased But how much money do they need? Love turns into fear And fear turns into greed There is no enemy there's only dummies That also love their families And this is not a phase It's just a matter of time With diligence and peacefulness You will reach them And you will change their minds If you stay there long enough They'll start to see you If you stay there long enough They'll start to hear you If you stay there long enough They'll stop trying to hurt you If you stay there long enough They'll understand you If you stay there long enough They will believe you If you stay there long enough They will work with you Because this is not a war It's a conversation about what people really need
