TERROR WAR

----------VERSE #01----------
Jah pained, and Him not want no more,
We got to stop this here, terror war,
We've got to stop these ways today,
'Cus in a terror from our Jah we stray.

We've got to have one love and live in peace,
Be free to be who we want to be,
No want no terror, that'll make us afraid,
'Cus in a Jah love, we all made.

I say, we've got to live in harmony,
Terror no good and it have no need.
In Jah love our soul is based,
Better in a love, than in hate be placed.

But it a true hard reality,
War is all, some want to see,
So we've got to hold our face in shame,
And let peace be the name of our game.
----------CHORUS----------
It a terror war, a terror war.
All over the Earth face.

It a terror war, a terror war.
Why so foolish them a human race.

It a terror war, a terror war.
All around it a huge disgrace.

It a terror war, a terror war.
To the Rastaman who Jah them faced.
----------VERSE 02----------
I say we no want no more,
We've got to stop this here, terror war,
We no want it in any way,
We've got to stand up, be strong in our way.

We've got to use peace against fear,
'Cus in a love we know Jah Him near,
So we must stand firm today,
And in Jah love make terror go away.

'Cus Violence it not have no worth,
Better to have peace on earth,
And we are all one family,
And the terror it a waste you'll see.

To the place of birth we all return,
Where we all have equal worth,
In Zion, where we're all free,
And war and terror, it not have no need.

[CHORUS]
