Ashes to Ashes Dust to Dust


What’s going on in the world today

So many people have gotten their lives taken away

A combination between love, hate, and war

Everyday life is more dangerous, tomorrow it will be more

Soliders being killed in the war in Iraq

The world is now spinning on a placque

A combination between love and hate

People always planning on a date

Many people don’t have healthcare

Let’s make it right, let’s make it fair

Murderers on the loose everyday

Keep things in silent just to get away

Instead of going out on the street smoking that weed

Why don’t you go to school, excel and succeed

Get a job instead of going to jail

Many people trying to break out of their shells

Am I the only one who wants to get rid of violence

Let’s come together to stop this nonsense

Let’s make it right, let’s the stop the fight

Stop the war it’s what right

Cuz ashes to ashes dust to dust

This is what life means to us
