Lyrics

Arms held high All together now I'm dreaming of peace A place we can live in harmony Where we don't gotta worry about What's harming us so What's it going to take? Another dropped bomb Another mistake? All the hate I stand back I can't relate We just try to get by With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held... Look at the news Police brutality Overseas another fatility Shootings abound Mental insanity making the rounds Mob mentality suddenly sound I don't get it Why we scare to die If we can't even live On a planet we claim is advancing? Here I get shot a rude glance Cease fire excuse my firm stance I guess we all bought into the lies I guess money talks louder than lives Political agenda given the time You and I were always denied (You and I were always denied) Understand we can't get by Without the ones at our sides We see this color on the outside But can't see how primitive it is To base judgement on skin And I'm sick of it Arms held high All together now I'm dreaming of peace A place we can live in harmony Where we don't gotta worry about What's harming us so What's it going to take? Another dropped bomb Another mistake? All the hate I stand back I can't relate We just try to get by With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held... We have these enemies And we fight these wars But in the end What are we really fighting for? We've been settling scores the same way Since before Christ or Mohammed or Buddha was born Is it worth people killing? Is it worth people dying? Doesn't make sense to me The mind is more powerful than any weapon It will ever conceive Let me repeat The mind is more powerful than any weapon It will ever conceive Now we need every soul to believe it No doubt when the people of the world Come together for one goal Looking through one scope We will achieve it On that day, making that choice Six thousand languages will speak in one voice We'll only find peace if we never lose hope That one day The future will be better than the past we wrote Arms held high All together now I'm dreaming of peace A place we can live in harmony Where we don't gotta worry about What's harming us so What's it going to take? Another dropped bomb Another mistake? All the hate I stand back I can't relate We just try to get by With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held... Hand in hand we clutch Now I ask Who is stronger than us? Hand in hand we clutch Now I ask Who is stronger than us? Hand in hand we clutch Now I ask Who is stronger than us? Hand in hand we clutch Now I ask Who is stronger than us? Arms held high All together now I'm dreaming of peace A place we can live in harmony Where we don't gotta worry about What's harming us so What's it going to take? Another dropped bomb Another mistake? All the hate I stand back I can't relate We just try to get by With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held high With our arms held...
