Something to See - Tracy Chapman

No war, no greed

That would be something to see

I hope I live that long

No blood in the streets

Just a distant memory

The history books recount

Now we’re all free

Now we’re all free

No war, no greed

That would be something to see

I hope I live that long

No want, no need

The struggle to end poverty

Finally has been won

Now we’re all free

Now we’re all free

No war, no greed

That would be something to see

I hope I live that long

Hold my constitution

And have the courage of heart and mind

To right what is wrong

Now we’re all free

Now we’re all free

But now you can’t believe

What you’re told

You can’t believe what you hear

The speeches of the politicians

Ring untrue and insincere

You can’t believe what you read

You can’t believe what’s said

They count the targets and the bombs

But do not count the dead

They do not count the dead

No war, no greed

That would be something to see

I hope I live that long

Not lose my faith

In every word on the page

In the face of freedom

No war, no greed

No war, no greed

No war, no greed
