I've always wondered what the world would be like
If we all just took two steps back
And prayed for peace

I always wondered how the air would smell
Do you think if we'd be able to tell
without the smell of fear
That we're going to hell

There is a fire in my heart you're not putting out
There's no need to scream or shout
Just pray for peace

There's a song in my soul try and beat it out
There's no need to scream or shout
Just pray for peace

My heart was pure and my soul was clean
Got shipped away to a war zone
Across the shining sea
In the name of peace

My momma told me youngest son
Don't lose your mind to that loaded gun
And I lost it now I'm on the run

There is a fire in my heart you're not putting out
There's no need to scream or shout
Just pray for peace

There's a song in my soul try and beat it out
There's no need to scream or shout
Just pray for peace

There is a fire in my heart you're not putting out
There's no need to scream or shout
Just pray for peace

There's a song in my soul try and beat it out
There's no need to scream or shout
Just pray for peace
Just pray for peace
