Title: London's Yearning
Looting's in the air
Instead of love flair
Everybody's in despair
What has come to our kids
Mothers and fathers
Are to dismissed
London's burning
Can you hear the yearning
What's missing in this place
Are we pretending in disgrace?
Have our children lost their faith?
Our world is a reflection
What's our misconception?
What's our true identity?
Money, greed, power, conspiracy?
Deep rooted in our society
We need community
Live in unity
Share and care
Our true aspirations
Positive identifications...
Having a whale of a time
Living in peace and harmony
Like a big family
With all people
All nations
All living beings on Earth
Love education
Peace celebration
All starts at home.
Mothers mistreating
Fathers abusing
Surfacing issues
Hatred and misuse
Poverty is lurking
In the poor man's home
Where is the love gone?
Where is the peace gone?
Last drops overflowing?
Are we now growing?
Blaming the muggers
We point at each other
Are we too blind to see?
We all play a part to be
No separation
No inequality
No war
No hate
Justice for all
Nurture the love
Bring back the peace
Listen carefully
Our mothers in need
Materialistic society
Self-destructive human race
Focus on peace
Focus on love
Focus on harmony
Learn to respect
Seek to reflect
Exploitation, power and greed
Looting for trainers
Killing for business
What's the difference
What are we teaching
To our children in need
Silent waters are deep
