Lyrics
Verse

How much longer is this war going to last
We really should have learned from our past
Men and women they are dying every day
Just so the mighty rich can have their say
The government is really getting out of control
To gain the world they'll even sell their soul
Listen closely now to what I have to say
It's time we stood our ground not back away

Chorus

We don't need a war we need a change
We don't need to play these dangerous games
God gave man free will and there's no time left to kill
We don't need a war we need a change

Verse

The rich are getting richer and the poor are poorer
Our leaders keep us insecure
Uncle Sam you say is great to be
But you look at what he's doing overseas
The government has got this world so f**cked
It's getting tough to tell which way is up
They keep us in the dark feed us full of lies
They can't conceal the truth with their alibi's

Chorus

Verse

They always tell us what they want us to hear
Hoping that we'll always be standing near.
It's time for a change I'm telling you now
Before it's too late and we get too far down
How much longer is this war going to last
We really should have learned from our past
Men and women they are dying everyday
Just so the mighty rich can have their say

Chorus
