BATTLEFIELD



When you are in the battlefield
The enemy armed and ready for war
Drop your arms, throw up a white flag
It is high time to call for a truce

We want peace and no more war
How can we tell our children stories
Of violence, murder and destruction
And blame the gods for our deeds

On both side, war is self-destruct 
In our homes, loved ones are deceased
This brings sadness and hate
To an already dilapidated society

We ought to fight to save the world
Tyranny from harming our children unborn
When the sun set at the edge of a new day
Embrace one another with an open hand
