War
Until the philosophy,
which holds one race superior
and another inferior,
is finally and permanently
discredited and abandoned,
everywhere is war.
Until there is no longer first class
or second class citizens of any nation
Until the color of a man’s skin
is of no more significance than
the color of his eyes,
I’ve got to say “war.”
That until the basic human rights
are equally guaranteed to all
without regret to race
I’ll say “war”
Until that day the dream of lasting peace,
world citizenship and the rule of
international morality will remain
just a fleeting illusion to be persued
but never obtained
and everywhere is war.
Until the ignoble and unhappy regime
which holds all of us through
child abuse, yeah, child abuse, yeah
sub-human bondage has been toppled
utterly destroyed
everywhere is war
war in the east
war in the west
war up north
war down south
there is war
and the rumors of war
Until that day
there is no continent
which will know peace
children, children
Fight!
we find it necessary
we know we will win
we have confidence in the victory
of good over evil
fight the real enemy!
