Would the Sun Still Rise
How can you stop the terrorists?
We can stop by go on living
We can stop by showing our true color
Show them who we are
That we mean it
We mean what we do
We mean what we say
That we are not someone they should be afraid of
People lash out when they are afraid
We can show them what it means to live
To live in harmony
Where everyone is equal
Of course there will always be someone
Who is crazy
Who does not follow any ideologies
But those are lone wolfs
We should try to reach out to show
our humanities, our human fragilities
That we all want the world full of peace
Would that work?
Time will tell
But we cannot go on
Killings with killings
Retaliations against retaliations
Try to tell that to Mars
Because no one will hear it
But would God hear?
