I asked my mother why do you cry
She said your brother had… he just died
Well I told him not to go outside
He said he had to fight for his country’s right
But don’t you know that mo-mother
Don’t you know that we can’t stop the violence, no
Because the war is not over
Until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence
But I smell gunpowder (pow)
My brother’s been dead ever since
I didn’t beleive it, but when I saw him I was convinced
Two shots to the head he was already dead Lord,
I headed for revenge in the city of Port Au Prince
Screaming bro-brother
Don’t you know that we can’t stop the violence, no
Because the war is not over
Until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence
But I smell gunpowder (Pow)
Zion’s gunpowder (pow)
