Maybe...

In a cruel and far from perfect world
pressures are faced by each boy and girl
Once born they will never be filled with that same innocence
and every choice made will bear some consequence

Just when you think we are starting to learn
Experience shows us that Hatred is a fire that will always burn
We can't escape something we can't overcome
and when it comes to Peace, it seems as if we have just begun

Maybe if our minds weren't so Judgemental
or if people didn't have to be labeled by a symbol
If only we could free our hearts from Jealousy
and not form opinions based on what we see

Maybe if life weren't so hard
or love could heal us from all the things that have scarred
Maybe if we could see the beauty in all God's creation
We could stand together as one pround nation

We will never put the killing, discrimination, and evil to an end
Because no matter how we try it's in our nature to sin
