Story behind the song
i came up with this song walking to the gas station, after hearing about a local crime where 3 kids my age beat a 90 year old woman and left her for dead, it's also about hate crimes
Lyrics
Hey Mr. News Man, what's the news today
Is it people killing each other like it was yesterday
Is it white man against black
Tell me what started this racial attack
Cuz I can't take all this fighting
People doing the wrong instead of right thing
(chorus)
Why can't there be peace
Set aside our differences
Let there be peace
Instead of hateful sentences
Mr. News Man, what will happen tomorrow
Will the world still be in sorrow
From war after war after war after war
Why can't you put down your weapons and fight no more
Cuz you're leading mankind to disappearence
All over some silly difference
(repeat chorus)
