War Lyrics - Ben Harper

( Bob Marley Cover ) 

Until the philosophy which holds one race 

Superior and another inferior 

Is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned 

Everywhere is war 

War - War - Oh... 

Until there is no longer first class 

And second class citizens of any nation 

I got to say War 

Until the colour of a man's skin 

Is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes 

I got to say War 

That until the basic human rights are equally 

Guaranteed to all, without regard to race 

I got to say War

And until that day of the dream of lasting peace 

And world citizenship 

And rule of international morality 

Will remain in but a fleeting illusion 

To be pursued, but never attained 

Now everywhere is War 

War - War... Oh... 

Oh - Oh no more 

War in the east and, war in the west 

War up north, war down south 

And war down south 

War in the east, war in the west 

War up north, war down south 

Oh War - Oh war... No more war... 

Oh - we got to use 

We got to - We got to...

Of good over evil 

Oh we know we shall win 

We are confident in good over evil 

You got to use your own....
