Put Down the Gun



Put down the gun and we can talk.
This world is too small for our hate.
There are many paths we walk.       
Put down the gun.

There is time it is not too late.
We can live with the paths we walk.
There is one thing we can get straight,
There can be no hate in our talk.

This world is too small for our hate.
There is much to say in our talk.
Put down the gun.
