Imagine down the street on an average day The suns out, and a warm breeze your way You witness play as you walk towards the store, you just need to finish a quick chore So many feet rapidly across the concrete floor You soon approach the market door, but suddenly you feel a searing fire your skin And then you hear a pop so loud that a roaring sound pierces into your Never in your life have you felt such You couldn't fathom what is on You around you but your world is gone Never did such chaos encompass existence Smoke and fire the air the floor is stained in blood from severed limbs So many lay all around you You look to the sky and how such horror found you And why would 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 body is so damaged you wonder how you're holding on And you soon you never may have love again And to your family and friends you'll never get to say So you start to cry as you die on cold hard ground The piercing ringing of your vanishing hopes and dreams be the last sound As you take your final the sharpest pain emanates from your core And you Ask What
(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 bring peace That the of an entire nation to war only creates oppression And oppression, has been historically To only more war So as we continue to kill other I ask What For?

Its written the Koran do not kill disbelievers, Let them be, and Coexist in Peace Jesus said love your enemies and it's written within the that thou shall not kill Then why in the name of religion so much innocent blood spill? What must it be, is religious the key? Because I hope we see its religions were created to decree Peaceful notions to help unity Not more that will never set us free Creating and repeating more and more If we just open our eyes we see The Destruction that has havocked from city to city So many dead as it seem this bloodshed is endless How can it not be evident taking peoples loved ones is Taking people's Right to Live, to Love And enforcing belief systems violence Trying to force into silence Will only breed hatred and And without the proper treatment and rights people will organize fights to live in than die in oppression Therefore the Blood we spill will quickly spark more war And is that really religion is for? A ending cycle of war? Or is there something 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 fall That is the interpretation of religion that can bring peace And as before Religions were created to bring peace not war So as we continue to kill other I ask What For?
(Chorus Repeat)

From Syria to Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Turkey and So many Oppressive governments have repeatedly uprisings and war So I ask What Are we going to continue to history? Because we on repeating the past and that's no mystery So I to say this to be, Crystal Clear History has shown people will revolt from tactics based upon People would rather die for Freedom Than under Oppression So governments stop the aggression and either be for the people By the people, or Be Because we need a helpful caring for us all to get along And governments; should helping be wrong? Don't you all want to feel like your efforts have made a Instead of spending your whole lives repeating the problems that have been there since your birth Don't you all want to feel like has actually changed since you entered this earth? Because is exactly what you will feel when you choose to help people out And the great rate of infinitesimal that will arise from it will prove to you what life is all about But is no doubt without change every one of you oppressive governments will continue to fall And these senseless battles continue to re-upload and install So let us and stop these senseless wars for us all Before die Before hundreds of thousands lives are wasted Wasted thousands of building and streets Wasted over Power and Greed Wasted fighting tears in hatred Wasted in misinterpreted Wasted not making a And In Oppression So let us the Aggression before we repeat the same mistakes anymore And ask
What
