All My People

All my people right here and right now,
Let's stop this fight before our time is through.
One two three four!
You and I maybe the only ones
To rise above this madness called hate, (Called hate!)
Still I hope that we're not the only ones
To hear the bells of liberty reverberate.
All my people right here and right now,
Let's stop this fight before our time is through.
If the price of peace is violence, I'm not gonna buy it,
Let's end this hate before our time is due.
Well let's try understanding for a change,
The point of view of other people's lives. (Their lives!)
And this might not be what you see as truth,
But let's try not to stereotype realities.
All my people right here and right now,
Let's stop this fight before our time is through.
If the price of peace is violence, I'm not gonna buy it,
Let's end this hate before our time is due.
Oh yeah, try understanding for a change,
Oh yeah, use some compassion for a change.
Oh yeah, try understanding for a change,
Oh yeah, use some compassion for a change.
We know that we've gone so far astray,
Its true humanity that's lacking in our lives. (Our lives!)
And you know I can't do this all alone,
It's up to you and I to end this fucking fight.
All my people right here and right now,
Let's stop this fight before our time is through.
If the price of peace is violence, I'm not gonna buy it,
Let's end this hate before our time is due.
