Peace And Love

We got to make a change
We got to make a cha-aa-aaa-ange

Yesterday I heard this voice in my head
Warning me, begging me, telling me
It said too much of our people are dea-eaa-ad
And if we don't try to do something before it's too late
Agony, poverty, misery is the only thing it's going to create

We need some more peace and love, yeah yeah
Too much of the youths dem take up gun play
Hold up your head youth and walk away
Come be a part of the brighter day
We need some more peace and love, yeah yeah
Too much of the youths dem take up gun play
Hold up your head youth and walk away
Come be a part of the brighter day

It will be better for you
There's a lot of things that I know you can do
To your own self you got to be true
You will be judged by the things that you do-ooo
So let's give love a try
Too much of dem little children die
And no one can tell me the reason why
All dem mothers do is cry-yyy

We need some more peace and love, yeah yeah
Too much of the youths dem take up gun play
Hold up your head youth and walk away
Come be a part of the brighter day
We need some more peace and love, yeah yeah
Too much of the youths dem take up gun play
Hold up your head youth and walk away
Come be a part of the brighter day

If each of us could really make the change now
Happiness, joy and gladness
Everyone living apart their ways
And only in that way you gonna find peace
Harmony, love and unity
Cause we really don't want the violence increa-eaa-sed

We need some more peace and love, yeah yeah
Too much of the youths dem take up gun play
