R-Three - Something to Believe In lyrics

Something to Believe In (words by Rhett Redelings-MacDermott)

I don't want to sing a song

about the war

I don't want to talk about

what it's really for

I don't wanna talk about

the VP getting rich off the

score

I don't want to watch the

rich killing off the poor

(Chorus)

I want something to

believe in

That doesn't cost another man

I want leaders not

deceiving CEOs on CNN

I want peace, peace, peace

I want a chance for an honest life

Not an endless war for a

bigger slice

I want Peace. Peace. Peace.

I don't want to think about the sons and daughters

Fighting a fight started by their fathers

or the mothers taking comfort from a statistician

and the hollow lies of a politician

They need something to believe in

That doesn't cost another girl

They need leaders not deceiving

businessmen using up the world

They need peace, peace, peace

They need a chance for their daughter's life

Not this endless war for a bigger slice

They need peace

(bridge)

They're telling us lies to keep us down and afraid

We're lining up to give our freedom away

They're killing thousands of people everyday,

breaking the heart of the US of A

Taking away our freedom to say

Give our freedom away

No one sane wants war

Even the terrified want something more

When hope looks like a weapon to a desperate man,

we can share the world, try to understand, or united we'll fall and divided we stand.

We need something to believe in

That doesn't take an eye for an eye

We need a future not a feeling

That won't be safe unless we buy the lies

We need peace, peace, peace

We need a chance for a better state

Not an endless flow Of blood, oil and hate

We need peace, peace, peace

I don't want to talk about what it's going to cost

I don't want to sing about a generation lost

They need something to believe in

They need something to believe

(Don't let it be this)

They're waving their flags, standing tall with pride,

clinging to rhetoric to justify

the immeasurable loss of those who'll die

And who can blame them?

They need something to believe in

Don't let it be this

We need peace peace peace
