Imagine walking the street on an average day The suns out, and a breeze blows your way You witness children play as you walk towards the store, you just need to finish a chore So many feet rapidly across the concrete floor You soon approach the market door, but suddenly you feel a fire melt your skin And then you hear a pop so loud that a sound pierces into your brain Never in your have you felt such pain You fathom what is going on You look around you but your is gone did such chaos encompass your existence Smoke and fill the air Everywhere the floor is stained in blood from limbs So many lay all around you You look to the sky and how such horror found you And why someone kill such innocent people the reality astounds you Then you try to get up but the ground you You lift your head to find your legs are And the rest of your body is so you wonder how you're holding on And you soon realize you never may have love And to your and friends you'll never get to say goodbye So you start to cry as you die on this hard ground The piercing ringing of your vanishing hopes and dreams will be the last As you take your final breath the pain emanates from your core And you Ask For?
(Melodic Interlude)
Why are we killing so many Every day the news is the same nightmare but a We are all But who of us to see it? Religions tell us to be but who of us want to be it? Am I the only one sees it? That these wars cannot bring That the subjugation of an entire to war only creates oppression And oppression, has been proven To bring more war So as we continue to each other I ask What For?

Its written within the Koran do not kill disbelievers, Let be, and Coexist in Peace Jesus love your enemies and it's written within the Torah that thou shall not kill Then why in the name of religion does so innocent blood spill? What must it be, is misinterpretation the key? Because I we see its religions that were created to decree Peaceful to help bring unity Not more that will never set us free Creating and repeating and more negativity If we just open our eyes we see The that has been havocked from city to city So many dead as though it seem this bloodshed is How can it not be evident taking loved ones is senseless Taking people's Right to Live, Right to And enforcing systems through violence Trying to force people into Will only breed and oppression And the proper treatment and rights people will organize fights to live in freedom than die in oppression Therefore the Blood we will quickly spark into more war And is that really religion is for? A ending cycle of war? Or is something more? Are religious struggles never ending struggles through death? Or are they battles of the mind? Struggles to spread knowledge and wisdom for that is the only way we will not behind is the only interpretation of religion that can bring peace And as before Religions were created to bring peace not war So as we continue to kill each other I ask What
(Chorus Repeat)
Verse
From Syria to Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Turkey and So many Oppressive governments have repeatedly cause and war So I ask For? Are we going to to ignore history? we keep on repeating the past and that's no mystery So I want to say this to be, Crystal History has shown people will revolt from based upon Fear People would die fighting for Freedom Than live under So governments must the aggression and either be for the people By the people, or Be Because we a helpful caring government for us all to get along And should helping people be wrong? Don't you all want to feel like your have made a difference? Instead of your whole lives repeating the same problems that have been there since your birth Don't you all want to feel something has actually changed since you entered this earth? Because that is exactly what you will when you choose to help people out And the great rate of infinitesimal change that will arise from it will prove to you what life is all But there is no That change every one of you oppressive governments will continue to fall And senseless battles will continue to re-upload and install So let us unite and stop senseless wars for us all Before die hundreds of thousands more lives are wasted Wasted thousands of building and streets Wasted Fighting over and Greed Wasted fighting tears Wasted in in misinterpreted religion Wasted not making a And In Oppression So let us the Aggression before we repeat the same mistakes anymore And ask
For?
