So many people

I know only a few

Yes I may say I love this man and that man

But what keeps me from loving you?



Date of birth, geography

The color of my skin, ideology

You got ten fingers, two legs, one nose

like me

just like me



And it's as simple as that

you see



And if I don't know who to love

I love them all

And if I don't know who to trust

I trust them all

And if I don't know who to kill

I may kill myself instead



From the mouth of a baby

Will come the world-saving words

that will save us all

And from the lungs of a child

will come the everlasting breath of God



Increasing peace and honesty

and not carrying on despite of me

Don't you know

this ain't about no race, no creed

no race, no creed



And it's as simple as that

you see



And if I don't know who to love

I love them all

And if I don't know who to trust

I trust them all

And if I don't know who to kill

No suicide

I'm already dead
