I Don’t Have to Agree.
I am truly listening, but I don\'t have to agree.
Just Because you are pointing that gun at me.
I was raised in a land of choice, a democracy.
The person you want to be you are free to be.
I am free to believe what I choose to believe.
To not have my own opinions dictated to me.
Where all religions exist and live side by side.
No preacher man constantly trying to divide.
The children can choose on their own friends.
Not controlled by the view of any old religion.
Where all people of the land are free to speak.
Although some may not like what you preach.
Tolerance, Care and kindness is what we teach.
Where desires are dreams are not out of reach.
We understand success can come out of failure.
We do not all expect religion to be our saviour.
Problems will be solved by us talking together.
No preaching hatred, division so it stays forever.
As individuals we are free to speak and disagree.
Without running the risk of ending up deceased.
Nothing is ever resolved by a bullet from a gun.
That just ensures all the hatred gets ever strong.
So put down your gun and come and talk to me.
We both listen, and I won\'t mind if you disagree.
