Peace is now, peace is now
And I, yes I am the world
I am here to say that
Poets and preachers and politicians
Peace is now, peace is now
Peace is now, peace must be now
If all of the ignorance in the world
Peace is now, peace is now
Passes a second ago
And you are the world
And who would you obey?
Peace is now, peace is now
Peace is now, peace is now
What would you say?
And who would you obey now?
Mr. President, I hereby pardon you of all your crimes
Selfishness and separation have led me
The world is not my problem
If all of the ignorance in the world
I am the world and you are the world
To believe that the world is not my problem
For they are just as much mine
Peace is now, peace is now
This demon, she is everywhere
I am here to say that
But tomorrow and yesterday, 10,000 years
What would you say?
War, disease and famine
Peace is now, peace is now
Passes a second ago
And we got 10,000 years devoted to nothing
They've all had their say
