Anti‐Flag - Power to the Peaceful Lyrics

Sons and daughters of a dream
The urge to struggle for an ideal
To stay and fight
Oppose war fever
Refuse to kill or be killed
There's voices calling in the wind and they sing
"power to the peaceful"
With a readiness of all forms
Blood hard on dissent
Has swept the country & militarism
There's voices calling in the wind
"power to the peaceful"
This is not a war
Of the urging people
This is not a war
Of economic independence
It is a war of conquest
Its a war for money
The road to universal slaughter
Check this out
There's repression and intolerance
On any deviation from the norm
In all factions of your life
At this time of entry
Into war say hey-hey
If you know what they sing say hey-hey
If you know what they sing say hey-hey
If you know what they sing say hey-hey-hey
Power to the peaceful-whoa-oh

Sons and daughters of a dream
The urge to struggle for an ideal
To stay and fight
Oppose war fever
Refuse to kill or be killed
There's voices calling in the wind and they sing
"power to the peaceful"
With a readiness of all forms
Blood hard on dissent
Has swept the country & militarism
There's voices calling in the wind
"power to the peaceful"
This is not a war
Of the urging people
This is not a war
Of economic independence
It is a war of conquest
Its a war for money
The road to universal slaughter
Check this out
There's repression and intolerance
On any deviation from the norm
In all factions of your life
At this time of entry
Into war say hey-hey
If you know what they sing say hey-hey
If you know what they sing say hey-hey
If you know what they sing say hey-hey-hey
Power to the peaceful-whoa-oh
