Verse
1) I'm holding back ...what don't feel right ...it keeps me up through sleepless nights. It can't come true ... our rights are a few.
I'll fight for you Red, White and Blue.
I'll learn to turn the cheek ...and walk the other away,
but until that time comes, I'm keeping my peace ...for another day.
Chorus
Little bit older... Done being soldier.
Ain't playing cowboys and Indians no more.
Little bit older, no chip on my shoulder.
Can't find a reason to fight with you today.
After the last fight, laughter and tears wiped.
I'm smoking, a peace pipe with you tonight.
Verse
2) In better times we fought for peace ...we paid the price ...we found release... From evil winds, and poison darts, burning inside our broken hearts.
3) When we were taught ...to stand up, tall, we used to fight when freedom called, we found that we were told a lie that kept the wars and took our lives.
I'll learn to turn the cheek ...and walk the other away,
but until that time comes, I'm keeping my peace ...for another day.
I'll learn to turn the cheek and walk the other away,
but I'm taking it easy I'm keeping the peace today.
