Their not after PEACE



Someone is offering peace, but no one is buying
peace we all can afford
war leads to poverty of every kind

The world is in a terrible state
there's a man that fought
with peace for peace humblely
the world murdered him

there was a man that objected
with peace and Godly reason
the first tried slander
that didn't work
so they assassinated him...

the price of peace
saves lives
the price of peace
enriches the poor

there's no profit in peace
the greedy can't have that
peace is the unthinkable
their not after peace
peace takes the power away from them...
the poor can afford peace
therefore, the world is not after it...
