General of Peace

Put down that gun if you please There's so much smoke now I can hardly see P.E.A.C.E. ain't no profanity So don't think there's something wrong with me The men with the funds The men on the top They pass out the guns They call the shots They say "strap on your mask and get your ass in the heat" But they're not around when there are bullets to meet Now Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King Are not around to see us through this thing But if they were alive today I think you know what they'd say We need a General of Peace To plan our strategy We need a General of Peace More smoke is not what we need P.E.A.C.E. that's what we really need P.E.A.C.E. a General of Peace They show it all on TV Except the casualties In this democracy They choose what we all should see The men with the funds The men on the top They pass out the guns They call the shots They say "strap on your mask and get your ass in the heat" But they're not around when there are bullets to meet Now Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King Are not around to see us through this thing But if they were alive today I think you know what they'd say We need a General of Peace We need a General of Peace Solving problems with guns Means you're killing someone That's no solution to me More smoke is not what we need We need someone who can see We need a General of Peace Solving problems with guns Means you're killing someone That's no solution to me More smoke is not what we need We need someone who can see We need a General of Peace Solving problems with guns Means you're killing someone That's no solution to me More smoke is not what we need We need someone who can see We need a General of Peace
