Album: Peace (canadian)

Land Of Broken Dreams (Stand Up)

They got the truth on their tongue but they won't speak it, I got the truth on my mind and i ain't sleepin,and if peace is a treasure man i don't believe it,cuz every time we got it man we never keep it, let the bombing resume, so that the ecomony booms,young man uncle sam wants u to do the things that he can't, bomb iraq and iran palistine, pakistan or afghanistan man, i got no beef with indians or persians, japanese chinese korean any person for that matter any matter, it ain't right to me, the war is on but who's fightin' for peace?who's fighting for peace?(peace peace fight fight) who's fighting for peace?..........

chorus:Stand up and be seen young man,in the land of broken dreams you can't plan, on an honest word from any man, i tell you honestly, Stand up and be seen young man, in the land of broken dreams you can't plan, on a better work for every man, cuz this shit don't work for me.....

there's a bully in a school yard usin' his fists, everybody gets hit man nobody's missed, the cowards get together cuz the cowards are pissed, they team power on the bully so the bully gets his, the bully ain't a dummy he gotta handle his biz, he pulls a knife out of his pocket points it straight at the kids, the kids are afraid they're kinda scared for a bit, they get some knives of their own they ain't no shit, the bully gets worried and he tells the teacher man about the gangs of little cowards with the knives in their hands, with a knife in his own much bigger no doubt, you both need to put the shit down and figure it out (you need to figure it out you need to figure it out)you need to put down the weapons and try to figure it out.......

Chorus

Well i dunno but i've been told so other man can be bought and sold ,but what do i know man about a war i know 1 2 3 what the fuck is it even good for? furthermore murder and war, murder of love
what is worth more oil or love
soil or scuds man they don't make sense
we spend money on defense not on offense
i'm a soldier using battle lines deliverance
words on significance spend for the innocence
the casualities they take casually
when war is a business a death of formality

stand up and just see young man in a land of broken dreams can't plan
on an honest word from any man i'll tell you honestly
stand up and just see young man in a land of broken dreams can't plan
on a better world for a every man cuz this shit won't work for me
