I had to write a song for a class I took concerning religion and conflict. I used the philosophies of peace from Thich Nhat Hanh and Desmond Tutu
lyrics
We look within ourselves to face the darkness there
To help us overcome the darkness everywhere
Forgiveness - face the darkness everywhere
We must listen to the trials of every man
To feel remorse and seek the pain to understand
Forgiveness - we must listen to the trial of every man
We must face the ugliness of how these things began
To hear the voice of others - if we can.
When we find our inner peace we will concede
To seek the stillness of our mind we can procede
Stillness - we can now build peace.
To be exiled from our selfish inner needs
To find the solitude and build a world of peace
Stillness - build a world of peace.
Forgiveness - build a world of peace.
