This is not a perfect world, we
see things everyday..
That make us take a second look,
or make us turn away..
The heart of man has turned to stone,
and compassion is not found..
We've taken love and friendship
and beat them to the ground..
No longer do we hold our dreams,
and all our hopes so dear..
At any given moment, we will
trade them in for fear..
Let's end this reign of violence, and
halt these evil designs..
We are all in this as one human race,
to that we must resign..
So, please reach out so all of us cease
the malice and the pain..
And maybe one day soon, we'll hear
sweet music in the rain..
And as you kneel and pray to God
for a better life for all..
Ask that Peace and Tolerance be
placed visible on the Wall..
