Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a war coming down
Between my brothers tonight
I don't want no war
Going down, going down tonight
[Verse 2]
Stop this war
Stop this war
[Verse 3]
Civilization? Ha! I call it as I see it
I call it bullshit, you know, I still cannot believe it
Our evolution now has gone the way of hate
A world evolved resolved into a stupid fate
[Verse 4]
Stop this war
Stop this war
[Verse 5]
All so different, yeah, I say we're all the same
All caught, you know, in the division game
Self destruction fast, impending like a bullet
No one can stop it, once it's fired, no one can control it
[Verse 6]
Stop this war
Stop this war
[Verse 7]
A final word, wait, it's not a call to action
We ain't no sect, no, this ain't no fucking faction
Unity, unity, unity, you've heard it all before
This time it's not exclusive – we want to stop a war
[Verse 8]
Stop this war
Stop this war
[Verse 9]
Ain't nothing wrong
With another unity song
Ain't nothing wrong
With another unity song
Ain't nothing wrong
Ain't nothing wrong
Ain't nothing wrong
Ain't nothing wrong with a unity song
[Verse 10]
Stop this war
Stop this war
[Verse 11]
Unity, as one, stand together
Unity, evolution's gonna come
Unity, as one, stand together
Unity, evolution's gonna come
[Verse 12]
Unity, as one, stand together
Unity, evolution's gonna come
Unity, as one, stand together
Unity, evolution's gonna come
