Let's Not
You start a war, while telling me
That you're liberating me,
As bombs explode and people flee
From burning buildings and babies cry--
Maimed, homeless and left to die--
Don't tell me to believe your lie
Of tolerant diversity.
When you bring death, don't say to me--
Let us agree to disagree--
Like some cerebral exercise,
For it is nothing but a lie--
When you've forced me from my home
And taken everything I own,
While murdering my family--
No, I'll fight you till I'm free.
For I can't possibly agree
To live under your tyranny
And your Creator's harmony,
When harmony means robbing me
And taking my autonomy--
No, I'd rather die than live
Under your fake democracy.
