Violence is never the answer!


Violence is never the answer!

Although people may argue it was necessary to conquer,

New worlds and lands were found and taken from others,

Industrialist and industrial change took over sharecroppers.

 

Violence is never the answer!

Although people may argue it was necessary to maintain power,

Slave masters used pain and violence to control a slave,

But never considered that with peace and equality, they will also behave.

 

Violence is never the answer!

Although people may argue it was necessary to fight back a law violator,

I heard of a resilient non-violent protestor named Ghandi

Because of him, he freed India from the control of Great B.
