(Ain’t Gonna Find) No Peace

(Ain’t Gonna Find) No Peace ©E.Mason/L.App

Soul of my ancestors
Out there among the stars.
I'm writing you to let you know
Mankind is still at war.

Leaders running to and fro
In their quest for peace.
The conference table just ain't able
To muzzle the beast

Yeah, we made a lot of progress
But we're still not civilized.
The law of the jungle still holds true:
Only the strong survive.

Ain't gonna find no peace
Out here in outer space. No we
Ain't gonna find no peace
In the arctic wasteland. No we

Ain't gonna find no peace
Because our mind's not right.
Ain't gonna find no peace
Until we see Jah's light.

Soul of my ancestors
My prayer goes out to you:
Send us strength and guidance
'cause we know not what we do.

Millions starving daily
While we rape our native lands.
Mankind ain't gonna feed his brother
With his head stuck in the sand.

Knowledge is increasing but
We still remain damn fools.
Say of our inventions
We're not masters but their tools.
