Love Not War - Emeli Sandé

The politics, the politics be crazy

I swear the television’s trying to kill my baby

This crazy guy is holding driver’s crazy

Autumn mansion’s really kinda scary

Now he said, «Why you acting like you’ll live forever?»

You gotta cherish anytime you get together

The world can change its ways, it must stay changing

But every time I pray I hear the same thing

Put down your sword, take less and give more

Love your sister brother like before

Make love and not war

Make love and not war, not war, not war, not war, not war, not war

Love your sister brother like before

Make love not war

I know that disrespect can get your blood to boiling

But keep in my mind that violence is a poison

Raise your hand up Baby you’re anointed

You are loved and needed so important

Now what a shame bullies left in charge now

Intimidation always trying to bring my heart down

But no matter how much gravity the rain brings

Every time I pray I hear the same thing

Put down your sword, take less and give more

Love your sister brother like before

Make love and not war

Make love and not war, not war, not war, not war, not war, not war

Love your sister brother like before

Make love not war

Every time I use my third eye, message is the same

We all have an equal part and choice to love or hate

But humans have a tendency to fear and aggravate

Find your truest power when you meditate

But when you find it hold on tight and you shall elevate

Love is needed more than ever do not hesitate

Mother needs some life support we cannot be late

Love is needed more than ever do not hesitate

Now ego is the friendliest of your frenemies

Be careful or he’ll rob you of all your energy

Power struggles will forever be a waste of time

What’s yours is yours, what’s God’s is God’s, cannot be mine

What’s yours is yours, what’s God’s is God’s, cannot be mine

So put down your sword, take less and give more

Love your sister brother like before

Make love not war
