Lyric Hand Over Fist

not long ago i was full of anger and
you really pissed me off and i lashed out
but now i know violence is not the answer
it never was and it never will be
now i know what it is all about
when the chips are down and there s
still some time for us to reach a common ground

cause i m sick of all the dying
i m sick of all the crying
there s gotta be a better way

just look around at our society
it s survival of the fittest on the street
can t you see violence is not the answer,
it never was, and it never will be
can t you see what it s all about
when the chips are down
there s still some time for us
to reach a common ground

we gotta stop the violence
cause if we don t care
and you don t care
and they don t care
who s gonna care?
now i know
