This Is Not A War

(앨범: Rompilation - 2012)

(One, two, one, two, three, four)

This is not a war, it's a conversation about what people really need
Fear is a poison, it breeds violence and apathy and greed
So people occupy the streets
So they can occupy the hearts of the fearful
This is not a war, it's a conversation about what people really need

This is not a movement, it's a body's immune system reacting to a disease
It's been trying to cure cancer with echinacea, vitamin C, and lots of sleep
Now the tumor got so big
That the blood cells have started to speak
This is not a movement, it's a body's immune system reacting to a disease

This is not a protest, it's a tortoise slowly pushing through a race
I hope the tortoise keeps its patience while the hare continues to pepper-spray its face
Unconditional positive regard
To the ones who hurt you, they're just scared
This is not a protest, it's a tortoise slowly pushing through a race

There is no enemy, there's only people that also love their families
And they're scared that they won't have enough long after they are deceased
But how much money do they need?
Love turns into fear, and fear turns into greed
There is no enemy, there's only dummies that also love their families

And this is not a phase, it's just a matter of time
With diligence and peacefulness, you will reach them and you will change their minds
If you stay there long enough, they'll start to see you
If you stay there long enough, they'll start to hear you
If you stay there long enough, they'll stop trying to hurt you
If you stay there long enough, they'll understand you
If you stay there long enough, they will believe you
If you stay there long enough, they will work with you because
This is not a war, it's a conversation about what people really need
