"I'll be Honest with you.... I Hate War...." Committed to Life

in war •  7 years ago 

Asian Dub Foundation - Committed to Life

I'll be honest with you
I hate war in all its forms
Physical, psychological, spiritual
Emotional, environmental
I hate war
And I hate having to struggle, I honestly do
Because I wish I had been the into a world where it's unnecessary
This context of struggle and being a warrior and being a struggler
Has been forced on me by oppression
Otherwise I would be a, a sculptor, or a gardener, carpenter
You know, I would be free to be so much more

I guess part of me or a part of who I am, a part of what I do
Is being a warrior, a reluctant warrior, a reluctant struggler
But, I do it because I'm committed to life
We can't avoid it, we can't run away from it
Because to do that is to be cowardice
To do that is to be subservient
