GOOD PEACE

Good peace its what we all dream
Never to be out of reach
Should never be too far to see

Why you need all the attention
When a family lives in desperation
Fame alone will never pay the bills

Good peace it should be the reality
Never to be a footnote in history
A man should never have to take a knee

Why we treated different ways
When I stood in line right behind you
I am no better I have nothing to prove

Good peace it should be more than a feeling
Never to be an idea of an educated mind
When we hear our leaders lie another child dies

Why you need to be rich
When the poor only dreams of it
Living a lie when you have to pay someone to be by your side

Good peace is more than thoughts and prayers
Should be service without a care
The proof shouldn't be recorded on your phone

Why not live in purity 
You'll have so much dignity
*Loving your self till everyone else does too

Good peace should be more than a thought
Good peace should come from the heart
Good peace should start from right where you are
