Lyrics:



     Here on terra firma

     The violence is spreading

     The walls are collapsing

     Into your back yards



     Here on terra firma

     The fires are raging

     The riots up staging

     To prove a point to none

     Here on terra firma

     The fear is choking

     The life out of each and every one



     Here on terra firma

     Where TV is King

     Where a black man with the same name

     Had a televised beating



     It's not too late

     Yeah it's never too late

     To heal these wounds

     That are fatal to the end

     To understand our sins

     To make amends



     See 'em down in hell

     Must turn back the tide

     This hatred must be stopped

     Let's throw our arms out wide

     And the dead are breaking in

     When your world comes to an end

     Will you say you did all could

     And then just hang your head



     Why not believe

     In the good of man

     Not bricks and burn

     Take all that you can

     To love your fellow man

     With all of your heart

     As you would yourself

     We must try not to stand above

     And hate you go to hell

     Put love in your heart

     God is not some TV show

     Our life is not some part

     Try to believe

     That only good will come

     If you give not to receive

     That is kingdom come



     Here on terra firma

     The violence is spreading

     Spread to your back yard



     Here in firma terror

     Leads to hatred and unrest

     Not only can we beat it

     No, that would be best
