Ray Toro - Hope for the World lyrics

Turn off the sound of war and hate Honor the cries for a world That decides on love not race Follow me now if you can In your heart is there a space? Open your eyes to a light That will never fade or die Hold on to a hope for the world Turn up the sound of a peaceful rest Drown out the tears and the pain Of our forefather's old game I tell you it's not too late To change our own mistakes Swallow your fear and your pride In ourselves, we can live or die Hold on to a hope for the world Put down your guns, we all bleed the same Colors run red, who's to blame For the loss and the hurt, for shame God given right, take my hand To a time and a place, disgrace Is a word that you won't understand Be my brother, my sister, friend Hold on to a hope for the world
