Story behind the song
Irie all.... this is a riddim I wrote some time ago under the title of Watcha Gonna Do Rachid....This tune came to the ears of a songwriter from Australia (the power of the internet..)Mr.Graham Henderson ( www.MP3.com.au/GrahamHenderson,www.songramp.com/homepace.ez?Who=grahamhenderson ) that liked it and felt inspired to write those great lyrics...this is the result of the collaboration between two person living in the opposite parts of the world sharing the same passion for music and the same feelings towards this bloody war....STOP THE WAR..STOP THE KILLINGS..STOP THE MISERY!
Lyrics
Young boy. In an ancient land. Will he ever grow. To understand. Hate is not the way. Peace is brought to be. And retribution is a poor excuse. To prolong the misery. Young boy. In a battle zone. Steeped in tradition His faith cast in stone. But his holy war is fought. With modern weaponry. Does he fight for his beliefs. Or to prolong the misery? Who’s right or wrong, has been lost. In the minefields of commerce. Those who sell the bullets. Are governed by the purse. They don’t care their product. Feeds the misery. It’s been so through the ages. So bring on the misery. The all mighty dollar. The yen and rupee. British pence and the pound. Grow fat on the misery. It is a vicious circle. Its radius is wide. Its axle lubricated by. The misery, of all, who have died
