about

Ceasefire Now

is an open ended plea for peace
not intended to be anti anyone
or pro anyone
but rather aligning with humanity in general

i believe in essence we are all the same
and should be treated equally
and especially children should always be protected at all costs

hope you enjoy
hope the ceasefire lasts
and hope the holidays are full of love

Joseph

lyrics

Ceasefire now



How many children have to die

Cease fire now

There are no sides when their mothers cry

And no real way to justify

Their death that rains down from an evil sky



Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

In Gaza somehow



Damage like a nuclear bomb

Dresden In a kill box people can’t escape

They told them to leave

But where can they go

A genocide some say is Biblical fate



Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

In Gaza somehow



Cause this might be the last time

To raise a hand about who we are

What’s this say about who we are?



Digital images

Digital lies

Cut out their heart

Along with their supplies

The propaganda

Leads to dehumanize

Our fellow humans and

silence

their cries



Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

In Gaza somehow



Without equality

There will always be war

We have all of history to see

How it’s happened before

Travel as equals

Equality now!

Or else mankind

will surely fall



Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

Ceasefire now

In Gaza somehow



Cause this might be the last time

To raise a hand about who we are

What’s this say about who we are?
