Lyrics

PEACE IS MORE (Than The Absence of War)
words & music by Preston Glass, Larry Batiste and Clif Payne

Verse 1
What is freedom if you can’t achieve
The things you’re destined for
What is peace if you only believe
That peace is just the absence of war
 
People pointing fingers straight at us
And you know they might be right
These words I say might sound dangerous
You know we have to change this plight

CHORUS
Peace Is More (Than The Absence of War)
Love is still worth fighting for
Peace Is More Than The Absence of War
Let’s come together and love one another…..
Peace Is More (Than The Absence of War)
Love can open up any door
Peace Is More Than The Absence of War
Throw away the hatred if we going to make it…..

Na na na na na na na na…..(repeat)

Verse II
Young lady walking down the street
going nowhere fast
Young man no opportunities
Just can’t seem to get rid of his past
Grown folks can’t get no respect
Despite their years of wisdom
What’s up with generation next?
They need to go back to square one

CHORUS

Bridge
No more poverty
Only peace and harmony.....
That's what we need.......
(Breakdown)……………(CHORUS & CHANT)
