We search for peace to flood the streets
Flicker of light to drive out the night
Abundance of love to dissolve disgust
But I'm still searching for
What that looks like for us

Love, it will not cease
Even when breath
No longer passes through our teeth
Love, like the clouds over our heads
Showering droughts and nurturing
What's left for dead

Yet the only light that I can see
The burning eyes from this monster
Marching the streets
Picket signs for scales, discourse for teeth

We are fighting fire with fire
And leaving devastation in our wake
Overcoming darkness with twilight
And the night tides immerse us
In their waves
We are waging wrath against hatred
And we battle each war after war

Our nation drowning in it's own tears
A body with a virus but we ignore the cure
How is it that we are too ignorant to know
That this hate that we cling to
It will get us nowhere
And still we rise
Against our very own brother

Lighting candles, we're burning bridges
Breaking bread, we're breaking skin
Take this cup, we're spilling blood
This one body has separated

Gluttony, debauchery
Outside these walls torsos empty
Hypocrites, rash judgments
Are we the salt, are we sulfur
Where is the compassion
From pulpits that we preach
We cannot abide by these patterns anymore

So retract your claws
Let's put anguish to rest
Because I swear
We're called for something more
Oh generation, no house can stand divided
It's time that we take on a new lead of love

We are the letters not written by pen or ink
But transcribed by the spirit of the I Am

We search for peace to flood the streets
Flicker of light to drive out the night
Abundance of love to dissolve disgust
And all of this has been written
On our hearts since day one
Live by the love
That is written on your hearts
