But truth should prevail;
We might hate the other guys,
But love should prevail.
We might be glad at their misfortune,
But compassion should prevail,
We might be on different sides,
But peace should prevail.
We might be at loggerheads,
But understanding should prevail,
We might be mutual in loathing,
But respect should prevail.
We should protect our interests,
But empathy should prevail,
We might be greedy,
But equity should prevail.
We've seen our world ruled by desire,
Old men with power who should have retired,
Our friends are wrong, but we back them up,
At the expense of another to prove a point!
It's good to be together, but there's a but—
To know the truth, have your sense of worth!
To be in a party, but in love with the truth,
Not with evil dwell under a roof!
We've seen divisions eat up the country,
One against another, then all and sundry;
Divisions setting fire to the world,
We've seen the earth polluted with blood!
Party spirit at the helm of affairs,
Nothing changes until we do;
To evaluate the actions of our friends,
In the light of God and humanity.
