We wanted peace so we bought guns
Music
We wanted freedom to make food
We wanted to feel safe when I pray
Music
They won't let freedom or me fade
I taste to lay my head down
And go out into the streets
I let my children play outside
I want to be the one to change the way
Music
Oh, with my soul
Love, love within my heart
And it's love, and it's love
It's loving all the time
It's love, love, love, love loving all the time
Music
I'm here because it's like
This is a fever that's catching on around the world
And it's nice to have so many people
So many different backgrounds coming together
And fighting for the same thing
And it's great to see so many people all of a sudden care
About the disenfranchisement
So many people, especially in the poorer neighborhoods
Have suffered for a long time
But they're finally standing up for everybody
Around the whole city
It's just a good feeling
I didn't want to miss out on something like this
When I see a sign like that
I want to stand up and share
Because that sign said it all
For me, that's it
It's me and my friends who've been here
Who are at the sixties ourselves
They've been saying
In the last couple of years
Where the fuck are people?
We should be in the streets
And now we are in the streets
And this is where we meet
Where we belong
This is our home
I'm very grateful
But this is where I sleep
If this is not a preview party
And an American opportunity to thank you
Keeping the country clean
And they need to realize
If you don't do something now
If you don't help us now
It's hitting the French Revolution all over again
We're going to overthrow you
We're going to fix this ourselves
And we're going to make things better on our own
Because you're not doing your job
You're not doing a job that we pay you
Our tax dollars pay you to do
And that needs to change
That's why people are here
I do what I can to keep their community healthy
Make sure people have a place to sleep
And what I can to help out Amy over in the food
Arrange stuff so people stuff doesn't get in this place
They have to be taken away
So they can't find it anymore
Make sure everybody's warm and dry and healthy
Because the politics will follow
And the politics will be healthy
And the community's healthy
The longer we're here
The more people get past that cynicism
And say these people have been here for so long
And see that we've been here believing in what we believe in
Whatever the fuck that is for individuals
And say maybe I can show up now
And that's what keeps more people from being here
Is that they're scared to actually believe in what they believe in
When I was in high school and applying to colleges
I was a dumbass and a social climber
And I was that asshole who applied to every I believe in
And I got into PID and I got into NYU
And I came to NYU which is hugely expensive
And now I know better and now I regret it
And I am the 99%
We're on a nail and we got dirt
We're on a home, we got blood
We need the peace from God above
To bury it down instead of pain
Give us peace in this name
Peace, peace within my mind
Oh, it's love, it's love
Love, love is in my heart
And it's love, and it's love
And it's loving all the time
It's love, love, love, love living all the time
Oh, war's a waste of time
Oh, war's a waste of time
Oh, war's a waste of time
What a waste of time
Peace within my mind
Oh, within my soul
Love, love is in my heart
And it's love, and it's love
And it's loving all the time
It's love, love, love, love living all the time
