Gil Scott-Heron - Peace lyrics
[Gil Scott-Heron - Peace lyrics]
What comes up so many many times
Seems i hear it every day
You know it’s always on my mind
As i struggle to find my way
But I can’t remember half the pain
Things to set my mind at ease
‘Cause I know we’re out here
Just searching
Struggling, struggling as I am for peace
Echoes, echoes of another world
This world of ours always torn by wars
And it makes you sit down ask yourself
Just what am I living for
And in the darkness of the dawn
I get down on my knees
Asking the heavens up above me
Where can a man find peace
I want to know
"Is it a dark for lying somewhere operation
Or my brothers "
Losing their lives in the street
Or in the shelter of my woman's arms
Want to know where
Where can a man find peace
It seems that thunder rules my life
Every day, every day
And every sleepless night
And I say tell me can anybody tell me please
Which way is the road to peace
I want to know where can a man find peace
Tell me where where
Where can a man find peace
Tell me which way which way
Is the road to peace
Seems i hear it every day
You know it’s always on my mind
As i struggle to find my way
But I can’t remember half the pain
Things to set my mind at ease
‘Cause I know we’re out here
Just searching
Struggling, struggling as I am for peace
Echoes, echoes of another world
This world of ours always torn by wars
And it makes you sit down ask yourself
Just what am I living for
And in the darkness of the dawn
I get down on my knees
Asking the heavens up above me
Where can a man find peace
I want to know
"Is it a dark for lying somewhere operation
Or my brothers "
Losing their lives in the street
Or in the shelter of my woman's arms
Want to know where
Where can a man find peace
It seems that thunder rules my life
Every day, every day
And every sleepless night
And I say tell me can anybody tell me please
Which way is the road to peace
I want to know where can a man find peace
Tell me where where
Where can a man find peace
Tell me which way which way
Is the road to peace
