What is the matter?

What is the matter with our country anyways,
what is the matter with this country nowadays.
At 18 you are not old enough to have a beer,
but you are allowed to go and people kill.
Everything we own we haven't paid,
we just don't seem to keep violence at bay.
Nobody talks anymore,
it's not like it was before:
we now offer death from door to door.
What have we become?
there are people dying of hunger, I ask myself, how come?

war is the problem, not the solution,
that's why our new year's resolution,
should be: bring peace to our society of injustice,
because no matter what the circumstance is,
you shouldn't run to a man,
because no man can,
not now not never, sweat this fever,
called greed.
It's time for our generation to lead,
this society to peace
and time for us to increase
our love for our brothers,
time to let go of angriness and bothers.

to all peace and love,
and pray to the lord above,
that he listens to us.
