One Nation

A vision of unselfishness, a union of black and white

One nation of all races, it's clear within my sight

I see it clear, no hate, no fear, no soldiers sent to die

A state that's free and thrives on peace, no greed, no threat to life

We won't build the weapons of war which loom over our heads

We will not feed the war machine, which leads our youth to death

We'll not close our eyes to the atrocities which abound

We'll not stand and watch until we're six feet underground

The future is our burden, we cannot stand and watch

As the world around us crumbles and opposing armies march

We'll work towards our goal, one nation unity

And you must be the convert who work towards world peace

There are those around us who stand and say no way

Opposing lessened armies, they say they're here to stay

No one knows until we try, what we all can do

I won't stand by while children die, it's up to me and you

Our world's been divided, boundaries have been drawn

Ideas are decided by where you have been born

Can't judge the people by the government of their land

They're flesh and blood like us, and our prejudice is sad

The future is our burden, we can't stand and watch

As the world around us crumbles and opposing armies march

We'll work towards our goal, one nation unity

And you must be the convert who work towards world peace
