IN CHARGE?
Another man, another president
Taking charge, becoming resident
Following policies leading to war
Always this way, What is it all for?
Time for a change now
Men have tried for too long
As the lines become blurred
Over the right and the wrong
It is natural for man
To want to fight
For he has to prove
What he thinks to be right
Keeping territories safe
Perceived boundaries intact
He loses the balance
and overreacts.
Now we have nations,
Facing each other,
Man against man
Brother against brother.
Let us move on
With a different approach
Calmness and dignity
Not one of reproach
Women and girls
Of the World can you see?
The World would be better
Ruled by you and by me!
