Steemitcentral Lyrics Challenge Day 30/60 - "360°" by Asa
Lyrics
We don't have to go
the 360 degrees,
Now it's time to go the 180
You don't have to climb
The highest mountain
For all you're looking for
Is within you
Open the eyes of your mind
Your ears and mouth
As I sing my song
Open the eyes of your mind
Your ears and mouth
As you hear my words o o o
Pa ra ra n pa n pa ra re
I'll be waiting
I'll be
We still live in yesterday
Many today they waste away
But never the less it's never late o
See the times have changed
I thought you knew
That this world, will
Never ever wait for you
The world has gone past times of fighting
So drop your guns and your swords
And let us live all as one
We all need love and understanding
So drop your guns and your swords
And let us live all as one hohoo
Pa ra ra n pa n pa ra re
I'll be waiting
I'll be
Every nation across the ocean
It's more than just our colours
We all need one another
Every people, where ever you be
It's more than just our colours
We all need one another

Most people agree that "the time for fighting" is long past.
Unfortunately, our so-called "leaders" are intent on continuing the fight. As long as we human beings are fighting amongst ourselves, the masters of war continue to hold power and to gain profits.
It's well past the "time to drop our guns." Rising up in peaceful protest is noble and honorable. Killing is not.
I agree with that the world has really gone past the time of killing and fighting. We need to embrace peace and harmony for the good of the whole of humanity.
PS: Pardon my late response I had a hefty workload in the past few days.
