Lyrics

Fighting For Peace
Frank Blades

[Verse]
It was one hundred years or more
Since the war to end all wars
And even as they signed the pacts
They were already planning the next attack.
Politicians barely hit pause
Claim a justifiable cause
So to get peace across this land
We need to take things into our own hands.

[Prechorus]
Raising my voice; won't look away,
Change begins with what we do today.

[Chorus]
I’m fighting for peace,
When will these wars ever cease?
We are all warriors; yes all of us,
We have to believe.
We are all fighting for peace,
Search to cure this disease,
There’s no defence; it’s common sense,
We can bring an end to war.

[Postchorus]
And that’s what we’re fighting for,
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Cause peace is worth fighting for.

[Verse]
A peaceful world is what I crave
Too many children in their graves
Sometimes you have to make a stand
We could have peace here in the palm of our hands.

[Prechorus]
Raising my voice; won't look away,
Change begins with what we do today.



[Chorus]
I’m fighting for peace,
When will these wars ever cease?
We are all warriors; yes all of us,
We have to believe.
We are all fighting for peace,
Search to cure this disease,
There’s no defence; it’s common sense,
We can bring an end to war.

[Postchorus]
And that’s what we’re fighting for,
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Cause peace is worth fighting for.

[Bridge]
There's never justification, to wage wars across the nations,
And this need for domination causing every confrontation,
And the death and devastation feeds the press's fascination,
A fixation, adoration in their latest sensations,
Watch the starvation, mutilation, deprivation dripping from their pens,
Oh the media’s fascination never ends.

[Chorus]
I’m fighting for peace,
When will these wars ever cease?
We are all warriors; yes all of us,
We have to believe.

[Chorus]
I’m fighting for peace,
When will these wars ever cease?
We are all warriors; yes all of us,
We have to believe.
We are all fighting for peace,
Search to cure this disease,
There’s no defence; it’s common sense,
We can bring an end to war.

[Postchorus/Outro]
And that’s what we’re fighting for,
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Fighting for peace (Fighting for peace)
Cause peace is worth fighting for.
