Fight me, isn't that what lifes for
Dollars for deals and leaders for war
A voice is silenced by population
Calm becomes violence by mediation
Waving false propaganda signs
That are fed to you in media lines
Today it said, and including the toll
That four are dead among the USS Cole
And whats to say, for rules of war times
Let the blood spray, make'em pay for war crimes
How many more before the treaty's enacted
What'll be the score, 97 in fact dead
Here in the US, and Afican gem mines
In Yugoslavia, Isreal and Palestine
History learns nothing from its past
Generations of confrontation last
Not enough years here will ever fix these
Love and peace are lost dreams of the '60s
FIGHT ME

Very powerful message, Bob. Sad but true. Excellent expression.
