Lyrics King For a Day - Matthew Grant

Wars and rumors of war
We're filled with so much hatred and we don't know what for
We do what we think's right and we shed innocent blood
We segregate our lives
What ever happened to love?
If I was king for a day
I would take all this hurt away
And restore our faith in each other again,
I'd make a decree
That would end poverty
Giving back what was lost
I'd change this world at any cost
If I was a king
Mindless choices have the loudest voices
We save the birds and trees
But for ourselves we give no choice
Corrupted politicians making laws for the land
They keep us on the ground
And we don't understand
If I was king for a day
I would take all this hurt away
And restore our faith in each other again,
I'd make a decree
That would end poverty
Giving back what was lost
I'd change this world at any cost
If I was a king
(All this hatred got to go)
We Got to do better!
(All this segregation got to go)
To make this world better
(We got to stop all this killing)
We Got to do better!
(If we want to change this world around)
To make this world better
