Our taxes sponsoring destruction
across the globe they're spreading death & fear
While we don't take care of our needy
They're lonely, getting raped on city streets

Evil men hide in the dark
Their war machine victims
are children who die

The Media is complicit in their plan
While they live lavish wasted lives
Our young are sent yet one more time to fight
A crisis of humanitarian lies
There's blood in their lies

When the wars are fought
In the name of peace
The one and only goal
Is feeding empires of greed
In the name of peace

(Trumpet & Guitar Soli) 

Evil men hide in the dark
Their war machine victims
are children who die

Geopolitics and full control
of others' natural resources
They also want to control human lives
Red stain on a spotless bed of their lies
There's blood in their lies

When the wars are fought
In the name of peace
The one and only goal
Is feeding empires of...

When the wars are fought
In the name of peace
The one and only goal
Is feeding empires of greed
In the name of peace

When the wars are fought...
In the name of peace!

In The Name Of Peace

MY LIKES AND REPOSTS POLICY:  It’s based on honesty and respect. 
MY LIKES TO YOU:  If I “Like” your track, it’s because I truly like it, and I expect nothing in return.  You to "Like" my song is not a requirement for me to "Like" your song, as it should never be.  That would be dishonest.
YOUR LIKES TO ME:  Honesty is important to me.  Please don’t “Like” my track if you don’t really like it or because you expect something in return.  And please don’t “Like” it if you’ve never even listened to it!  (as some promoters have done, seeking new customers)  I want to know that my likes are genuine.
REPOSTS:  I only repost tracks that I feel match my current page’s genre, with a few exceptions.  And I never repost someone’s track to try to persuade them to repost mine.  If you repost my track, great!   But please don’t do it because you want or expect me to repost yours.  And of course don’t repost it if you’ve never even listened to it.
HIP-HOP AND RAP:  It’s not my thing.  I fully respect it as a legitimate art form, but I don’t connect with it.  I wish those artists nothing but the best, but I probably won’t be liking or reposting much of it.
In summary, let’s please be both supportive and honest with each other.  We can be both without being mean or disrespectful.
Thanks for your understanding, and thanks for giving my music a listen!  I hope you like what you hear!
