War, an animalistic reaction to human misunderstandings I wanna tell you about war! All over war! All over war! All over war! Everywhere! Please pause the applause and let me comment On the scores of wars in every continent To me it's clear to see and very evident That towards violence mankind is bent Check history from past to present Check the orient and then the occident It won't take you long to make a good a**essment That the human race is belligerent From primitive man to his now descendants That animal nature is still prevalent A knowledge of this is quite sufficient In understanding mankind's predicament Everyone is to blame no one is innocent No one is exempt from involvement They can't shut me up can't keep me silent I've got feelings to vent right now about war! Now some people say they want disarmament But in times like this we need arms for defense 'Cause certain world leaders that are hooked on decadence Would never consent to a peace settlement If this world was mine I would pa** judgement
On every crooked leader that promotes violence I'd give them a long term of imprisonment And then I lose the key! (oops) quite by accident I wouldn't feel sorry no I wouldn't lament 'cause I hold wicked people in utter contempt To be rid of all of them would be a great improvement On the world environment cause there'd be no war! War over here. War over there. War every where Every where, every where, every where's war Ain't got time to whine and pine about historical events What happened then is dead and gone and now is quite irrelevant What matters to me now is future events That's why I'm on the front line of the peace movement Sowing seeds of sense in a world of nonsense Yes I'm on a mission with a message heaven sent What the people of today need is enlightenment And then there'd be peace in every continent I know Jah children will agree with this statement 'cause in the victory of good over evil we are confident There's hope for us yet so don't get despondent There must be a way to prevent all the war!
