Take a look in the mirror, look at yourself
But don't you look too close,
'Cause you just might see the personThat you hate the most, Lord
What's happening to this human race
I can't even see one friendly face
Brothers fight brothers and sisters wink their eyesWhile silver tongues bear fruits of poison lies
Take a look at your children
Born innocent, every boy and every girl
Denying themselves a real chanceTo build a better world
Oh, dear lord what's happening
To your precious dreamI think its washing away
On a bloody, bloody stream
Yes, take a look at your childrenBefore it's too late and tell them nobody
Nobody wins when the prize is hateOh, no, no, no it's not too late
We gotta tell all of our children
That love, love, love is the way, yeah, yeah
