What comes up
So many many times
Seems i hear it
Every day
You know it’s always
On my mind
As i struggle
To find my way
But I can’t remember
Half the pain
Things
To set my mind at ease
‘Cause I know
We’re out here
Just searching
Struggling, struggling
As I am for peace
Echoes, echoes
Of another world
This world of ours
Always torn by wars
And it makes you
Sit down ask yourself
Just what am I
Living for
And in the darkness
Of the dawn
I get down on
My knees
Asking the heavens
Up above me
Where can a man
Find peace
I want to know
"Is it a dark for lying somewhere operation
Or my brothers "
Losing their lives in the street
Or in the shelter
Of my woman's arms
Want to know where
Where can a man find peace
It seems that thunder
Rules my life
Every day, every day
And every sleepless night
And I say tell me
Can anybody tell me please
Which way
Is the road to peace
I want to know
Where can a man find peace
Tell me where where
Where can a man find peace
Tell me which way which way
Is the road to peace
