The Price of Peace Lyrics


Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
You stole my history
Destroyed my culture
Cut out my tongue
So I can't communicate
Then you mediate
And you separate
Hide my whole way of life
So my self I should hate
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Took away my name
Put me to shame

Made me a disgrace
As the world's laughing stock
Think of me as show
You jeer and to mock
But your time is at hand
So you better watch the clock
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
From the shores of Africa
To the mainlaind of Haiti
Caribbean and the Pacific
Central and South America
Yes you mediate
And you separate
You hide my whole way of life
So my self I should hate
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Brother what a price I've paid
Sister what a price I've paid
Mother what a price I've paid
Father what a price I've paid
To thee
To have peace
