Don't hate my brother, God is our friend I've walked for miles and I see no end To the hate, oh, to the hate And we just, sit and wait on... Who can save the world, my friend? Who can save the world, my friend? Who can save the world, my friend? All we need is love Who's gonna save the dyin' man from his hunger? Who's gonna take from the rich And give to the ones who never had a chance? Who's gonna wipe the tears? Are we ever gonna overcome the fear? We've got a battle Who can save the world, my friend? Who can save the world, my friend? Who can save the world, my friend? All we need is love And now I'm just 18 in the summer The world is hot as Hell as the devil walks up my street And I'm out on my Georgia porch Scorchin' the board with the pen My hand has been forced We're meant to be tools of God But instead we cop us a Porsche Temperature risin', money disguise the fact That we need to discover love in the earth and sky and beyond Love is what's missin', love don't live here no more Dear America, please listen, that sound will open the door To new reality, palpable types of fallacy Live my life young and reckless But keep that shit on the balance beam What do you love? Find it, let it consume you Deserve it after the things you've endure, I know that your pupils Have seen Hell twisted over and backwards Soon as we learn to speak we begin our career as actors Always agreein' with things we're told to believe in Time is repeatin', somebody knows what is needed
