Luyện nghe bài hát A Different Kind of War

from
..............................................

was a long haired guy who drew a crowd outside
He got all angry over national pride
He was talking of the war that's on our
And how never had to fight so hard beforer
a war to fight and a war to win he said
But how do we strike and to begin?
We want to those guilty of the crimes they've made
But don't live in one city; there's no fortress to invade
This war is psychological and it starts here
So in my defiance, I will not live in
fear is their weapon so I won't give in to that
They know that fear to rage, and thats just their trap
The way win is to make us strike back
They want us to a dreadful counterattack
The more that die at the hand of our nation
The more hate it will breed in the next
In kind of war, they're not after our land
They want their children's blood on our vengeful
They want to make us act an angry mob
So we look like a that hates their god
Their plan is to hurt us with our own brute
Like a herd stampeding down a deadly
If they can get us running a rage like this
They can lead the free off the edge of a cliff
And the cliff is to fall for the they've sprung
To make us the role of the vengeful one
They want us to chase them and them down
To their people and burn their towns
The few people are happy to die
If can make us kill a few thousand more besides
Becuase the death of the innocents just fuels the
Until the war starts and its all the same
And the future for a hundred years
As the terror grows and it breeds more
So who will decide the of our nation?
Will we follow along with invitation?
The is to trust our hate
To let revenge define our
To never see that a different war
And we can't fight the same way we before
We're not by a tiger, or a lion or a shark, its more
Like that's the danger and the enemy's a spark
But the trickiest spin the devil could twist
Was convincing the that he didn't exist
If you don't believe in evil, then they're dangerous men
And you'll fire with fire, and you'll be just like them
An eye for an eye, time after
Eye after eye the whole world is blind
If our enemy is evil, like a of the mind
And its through the body of all humankind
Then the evil brilliance of this virus is hate
Is that our reaction makes it replicate
We want to shoot at a target thats easy to
But the enemy is in us - all
We to kill the invader like we could in the past
But you can't kill a virus with a blast
This is not a nation that up against
If it's good against evil what's our best
The man on the street was drawing a
Some got angry and voices got loud
The answered back to the sidewalk guy
That we have revenge for the people that died
But the man kept talking love and light
As if that were any way to fight the
And a scuffle started and they him in
He was of crimes and convicted of sins
And for national safety and pride
That sidewalk preacher was
