I am all those who are suffering across the world, I cannot turn away my blind, tear-filled eye. You are suffering with them behind your blindfold, You are terrified that you’ll be the next to die.
Is it that difficult to see? Doing a needless, senseless, heartless atrocity. Can we not wake up and be simply one? We have the power, we know what needs to be done.
There is an answer, but we will not submit. Violence upon violence, We continue to commit.
Victim after victim, Death after death, Pain after pain, Tear after tear.
We will burn in our own fire, Our hearts filled with rage. I did not want this funeral pyre, But you set an immutable stage.
God did not want this, We are all this merciful God. Accepting this will bring bliss, Remove this constricting façade.
We are all those who suffer, We are all those who cause suffering, We are all those who want to help, We are all those who allow it to happen.
If you take a moment to stop and believe, Instead of a sword, help the others to see.
We are the Question. We are the Answer. We are One.
End it now, it has been years and years, The oceans are rising with our salty tears.
