WWIII protest song

I could't put this song into the fiction area of ATS,
got a message that it was prohibited. I hope i can
post it here. Its a song about the oncomming war(?).
I like to know what my fellow ATS's think of it.
Any comments are welcome...

--------------------------------------------------

I can feel the pain of the people, the world gone insane
everybody wants the power, but dont take the blame
killing each other for the good of the many
life costs no money, not even a penny

as soldiers of god, they march trough darkness
walking over nations, people left helpless
thinking they do the right thing by the actions they take
but the reasons and religions they use are fake

Blowing yourself up to become a hero
but the result always be less then zero
there's other ways to express your choice
by protest, songs and a strong voice

the government uses the new rules
state above all, hurdling the fools
got no rights, got nothing to say
we all just waiting for a better day

World war 3 is close at hand
dead, disease and a scorched land
i get sick when i watch the evening news
al those fools with backwards views

They dont care about life and living
only grabbing and no giving
to destroy is the new way of living
no happiness, love and singing

very depressing you could have pt a bright side to it maybe just a bit to depressing for me

Yeah, why does a World War III song have to be depressing?

Couldn't you work on it's nicer points?

It's hard to sing it without knowing the tune that goes along with it, so I sang it to the tune of the US National Anthem, which didn't seem to work really.

Keep up the good work sebastiaan.

Thx for the reply's. I wil make my next song a little less depressing.
btw. the tune is a gangsta-2pac-biggie-hiphop-ghetto-rap song.
So, with a little imagination i can make a hit record ;-)

Peace....

very good one, sebastiaan. It perfectly sums up the world of today.

Do you like "Weapons of Mass Destruction" by "Faithless", I can't stop playing it at the moment.

Another favourite of mine is "Changes" by "Tupac"

Don't worry about the "depressing" comments, all songs/raps should be emotive and thought provoking. Unlike most of the cack in the charts at the moment.

Thx. Koka,

I'fe wrote this song in a reaction of what i see on the TV and
read on ATS. I'm not a negative person, but with all the BS thats
going on in the world, i looking with a dark cloud above my head
to the future. Maby WWIII is the only solution to end all the arguments
and unite the people of the world so whe can build a steady co excistence.

"Universal peace is the only solution"
ps. The songs you mentiond are my favorites too.

ROCK ON!!!

Nice. Tells what the worl'ds about. That sucks. It would sound good with rock music. (Im guessing it was meant to fit with rap?)

Yup, it pretty much sums up the current
situation......could be a hit, need a manager?
