Big little boys


Big little boys
playing big with big weapons
weapons too big for their little understanding
of what is worth fighting for
Blood on their dirty, greedy hands
grabbing for more
more land, more oil, more money
to put in their already full pockets
Innocent land conquered with lies
fooling the masses
that these killings, these murders of innocent millions
are somehow
justified

But we're waking up now
We stand up, lift our head, open our eyes
We turn off the television,
we walk away from meaningless jobs
that only put more money
in the pockets of the few
We're done with obeying fools
we don't need their toys, their drugs, their plastic crap anymore
we've had enough
We want the truth
we want transparency, true democracy and equality
We want love to rule the world

We're not here to live in the shadows of insanity
We were born to live in the light of the human potential
and we know what that means
we know what we can create
we know how to love one and other
we know how to care, how to share
We can build what is sustainable
and break down the destructive
