lyrics

Do we have to wait for love?
To stab us in the back
Before we learn the ways of love, peace and harmony

Misery has held the people hostage
You never see them smile when they are working
Them always tell you say money matters,
Where me go sleep? What me go eat?
In a world where everybody’s running
Nobody seems to be thinking and
Nobody seems to be loving

Do we have to wait for love?
To stab us in the back
Before we learn the ways of love, peace and harmony

They will promise you the riches of Ceasar
Wild grapes and wine to drink forever
Away from the people who always suffer
Like a two way street downtown Accra
What matters is love never fails
It’s a blanket of hope sown by the Lord
With strands of faith we are never down

Do we have to wait for love?
To stab us in the back
Before we learn the ways of love, peace and harmony
