Silence The Violence

So many weapons and so much hate
Let's find a solution before it's too late
Children are dyin' in the street
I can see the rage I can feel the heat

My life has become a battle zone
Sometimes I feel like I'm all alone
But I won't give up hope, that's not my style
I'll carry on and go the extra mile

And you know I'm not down with a violent crew
I'm for peace and love, I've got better things to do

Silence the Violence and increase the peace
Silence the violence and increase the peace

Brothers and sisters throughout the land
We can play in a universal band
We can't fight injustice if we fight each other
We can't see the future if we kill one another

So take this advice 'cause it comes from the heart
Let's come together before we come apart
Listen to the chorus, here's the reason why
I'm part of the human family and I'm much too young to die

And you know I'm not down with a violent crew
I'm for peace and love, I've got better things to do

Silence the Violence and increase the peace
Silence the violence and increase the peace

It doesn't matter who you are
Everybody is a shining star
And every life is one worth saving
An end to violence is what I'm cravin'
I don't wanna preach so I guess I'll have to teach
Each and every one within reach
What it's about so there's no doubt
That life ain't fair but you can show you care
So get along, be strong, help me sing the song

Silence the Violence and increase the peace
Silence the violence and increase the peace

A unifying message against the increasing violence that must be checked before we destroy each other. There are better answers, let's try them first.
