ONE LOVE

Britain sailed and shot themselves to "chosen"
Gandhi fought back peacefully, for freedom
Of caste and races he said, "Only one!"

Jews were the "elect" and the Puritan
But herrenvolk Nazis saw them undone
Hitler's myths died; we vowed "Never Again!"

The new world showed love and hate for England
For Native Indian, French Revolution
Yanked between Hamilton and Jefferson

We may count on friends, or on foes again
We - change our minds and hearts - all too human
Future foes and friends are unborn, unknown ...

So we dare devils and inner satans
Ah, humans! We lust for chosen notions
One Source, Origin, Nation - Africans!
