Only love can do That

Hate can't drive out hate

Only love can do that

Can't do it with explosives, bullets or a bat

People try to solve this with a travesty called war

It will never fix the problem, although that is what it's for

We can't find a solution

Not anywhere in sight

Instead of trying to keep the peace, our countries choose to fight

We choose to fight each other, it happens all the time

Nothing more then ignorance

A true horrific crime

People are just people, we're very much the same

Doesn't matter who we are or where it is we came

We gotta try a better way for all to get along

Try a different tactic

Sing a different song

Some people just don't understand that's not the way to be

Oppression means that people aren't able to be free

Shine the light upon them

Help them to their feet

Give shelter to the homeless 

Food for them to eat

Can't do it with explosives, bullets or a bat

Hate can't drive out hate

Only love can do that
