| Everybody’s got their cross to bear
|
| You got yours and I got mine
|
| Our hearts are beating to a different drum
|
| The time has come to get in line
|
| I say KNOCK KNOCK,
|
| is there anybody out there
|
| Anybody who knows it all
|
| Or are you just another pessimistic hero
|
| Waiting for the sky to fall
|
| I ain’t here to draw no pretty little picture
|
| Open up your eyes
|
| I need some peace, a little peace
|
| We got to get out alive
|
| Peace in our time, peace in our mind
|
| Everybody’s got their cross to bear
|
| Tell me, where do we go from here
|
| I need some peace in my mind
|
| We need some peace in our time
|
| Wake up, take a look around
|
| Tell me what you think you see
|
| There’s a whole lot of people in the lost and found
|
| Looking for their liberty
|
| There’s a prime time war on my TV screen
|
| There’s a dope deal down on my city streets
|
| And the only one who’s losing out
|
| Is you and me I ain’t here to paint no pretty little picture
|
| We’re running out of time
|
| I need some peace
|
| A little peace
|
| If we’re gonna survive
|
| Peace in our time, peace in our mind |
| Everybody’s got their cross to bear
|
| Tell me, where do we go from here
|
| I need some peace in my mind
|
| We need some peace in our time
|
| Now I ain’t here to be no politician
|
| Open up your mind
|
| You better open up your eyes
|
| Peace in our time, peace in our mind
|
| Everybody’s got their cross to bear
|
| Tell me, where do we go from here
|
| I need some peace in my mind
|
| We need some peace in our time |
