Cover art for What Are We Fightin' For? lyrics by Tyrone Wells

People get ready, there's something in the air Creeping in slow so we don't even notice, brothers and sisters beware People get ready, open up your eyes Hatred and violence, millions fall silent, we don't even hear their cries

It's time to love one another, we're sisters and brothers, what are we fighting for Too many backs that are breaking and lives being taken, what are we killing for I think it's time for forgiveness, to rise up and end this, what are waiting for Love teach us the way to overcome hate and weapons of war

People get ready, put your loaded gun Silent indifference, hunger for a vengeance, are words from a wicked time People get ready, only you can choose What you will do when it comes down to you, no one else can walk in your shoes

It's time to love one another, we're sisters and brothers, what are we fighting for Too many backs that are breaking and lives being taken, what are we killing for I think it's time for forgiveness, to rise up and end this, what are waiting for Love teach us the way to overcome hate and weapons of war

Oh my Lord, I have a dream Oh my Lord, one that we'll see Oh my Lord, all men be free Oh my Lord, I still believe
