Lyrics Anti–Flag – 911 For Peace (Live)
Text:
This song’s called 911 for peace
It’s in the paper every day
You see it in the headlines and you feel so sick, yeah
Another life leaves this world (this world) so full of hate
Short on compassion
Short on humanity
Asking myself in vain, shaken by the shock,
«Do we even have a chance?»
Chorus: x2
I don’t wanna die
(I don’t wanna kill)
I don’t wanna kill
(I don’t wanna die)
We are all human.
It’s time to prove it.
This is a plea for peace (world peace)
To the oppressors of the world and to
To the leaders of nations, corporate profit takers,
to the every day citizen
Greed, envy, fear, hate, the competition has to stop.
When you see someone down, now’s the time to pick them up
Set our differences aside and never look back, again
Chorus: x2
I don’t wanna die
(I don’t wanna kill)
I don’t wanna kill
(I don’t wanna die)
We are all human
It’s time to prove it.
Let me hear you sing
Isn’t everybody tired of the killing? (hey, hey)
Isn’t everybody tired of the dying? (hey, hey)
Isn’t everybody tired of the killing? (hey, hey)
Isn’t everybody tired of the hatred? (hey, hey)
Violence… (hey, hey)
fighting… (hey)
killing… (hey)
hatred.. (hey)
aaaaaah!!
Right now if you don’t know the person standing next to you,
Turn to them extend your hand, shake their hand, make a new friend,
This is our family, this is our community! Let’s fucking sing!
I don’t wanna die
I don’t wanna…
I don’t wanna die
I don’t wanna..
Let’s go!
Chorus: x2
I don’t wanna die
(I don’t wanna kill)
I don’t wanna kill
(I don’t wanna die)
We are all human
It’s time to prove it
We are all human
It’s time to prove it.
x2
We are all human…
And that’s the truth
