October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month
But I say,
I'm already aware
How about we call it what it needs to be
Prevention is easier than cure
Because awareness without action is just...
watching
World peace starts in me Not a law,
not a sign, not a policy
It's a choice I make when I wake up each day Every
word that I speak,
every step that I take
I've seen too much pain,
I've cried too many tears
I've lost my own blood,
faced my deepest fears
But I'm still standing,
I'm still here
And I'm choosing peace,
let me make it clear
I pledge to be
nonviolent
Respect my body, protect the Earth I am
NVP!
Nonviolent Person, that's me!
Aw yeah, that's me!
My body's a temple,
I treat it with care
Clean air in my lungs,
good food that I share I put down the phone,
step into the sun This life is a treasure,
my race has just begun
No smoke, no drink,
no drugs in my life
I'm walking in the sun to get vitamin D
Learn something new,
to be all I can be
Mamas and Papas, hear this plea Don't lose your child to the
streets
I lost my grandson,
Adam, too
Let's turn our grief
into saving a life
Let's change the world,
starting with
you and me
World peace starts in my heart
World peace starts in my
heart
I am NVP
Aw yeah,
that's me
