We Live In An Age When Wars

We live in an age when wars and rumors of war are rife But one fight worth fighting for is the fight for life The fight for to live for as long as you can Should apply to every girl and boy and every woman and man Leave it to patriots and nationalists the praises of dead war heroes to sing But of all of humanity's gifts the great gift of life is the most important thing The will is in most people for to live on Even though their best physical years are in the long forever gone The gift of life is worth fighting for as the one true just fight To live till you die by Nature's law should be everyone's right As a gift the gift of life does not have an equal to say otherwise would be telling a lie A gift we do lose on the moment we die We live in an age when so called successful people are admired And impressionable people to be like them do feel inspired And though they may be quite gifted in some ways as most would agree We all share the greatest gift is how it seems to be.
