Surrender Your Ideals

''If we take from the rich ''And give to the poor ''Both are just left ''Wanting for more

''If we strike down evil ''And help spread good ''The good will be evil ''And the evil be good

''So surrender your armor ''Surrender your arms ''Surrender the alibi ''You used to cause harm

''Surrender your ideals ''And the lines on your palm ''To give hope to the future ''And to a world always calm

''When you charge the guilty ''And the sinless are freed ''The guilty learn kindness ''And the sinless learn greed

''If all are born equal ''But a person can change ''Will they always be sinful ''Or will there be an exchange?

''So surrender your armor ''Surrender your arms ''Surrender the alibi ''You used to cause harm

''Surrender your ideals ''And the lines on your palm ''To give hope to the future ''And to a world always calm
