Why War and Peace Shack Up
Throw the world in shackles
throw the keys away
Could justice exist without sword?
if the sword then blood must pay.
Let all be innocent?
Heaven forbid!
The sword couldn't be picked up that way
Let there be peace
let its practitioners be pure
dry up the world from all that it must now endure
rid the world of vice and sin
regardless of which paradigm your in.
Do all that
cause Jihad, holy war, more
truth inviolate causes what is good for one
is sacrilege for one or more.
Add to all agency most dear
(T'would be null and void
if the right to do wrong we lose)
when that right we have, you see,
some will choose the dark path while free
and lose their innocence
going beyond the pail
then justice must come and blood must fall
Remember this cycle before the end
t'sn't worth the cost
to try to shackle the world
until all believe in the same way.
Which way to choose?
Which end to seek?
Your way? I laugh at you.
Who has the answer
A secret I will tell you
the good and the meek
Turn the cheek and cough
they seem
no wiser then you...
but then you might still peek
note their hopes on are penning
a resurrected Jew.
