This song was inspired by Singing Resistance. I hope people will learn and sing those songs whenever they get together in protest against Trumpism and the U.S. oligarchy. With the onset of the illegal war against Iran I hope the following verses will provide a common voice to the values that will bring peace.
Only peace in the present
Will bring peace in the future
Only love right now can show us how
We are brothers and sisters
And we walk together
In a world that’s one
We take care of each other
There’s a world where our children
Can prosper and thrive
Where truth and justice
Keep hope alive
We don’t need your hatred
We don’t want your wars
We know love and kindness
Will open any door
Only peace in the present
Will bring peace in the future
Only love right now
Can show us how
