Lyrics, music and performance by Doc Jazz.

The newspaper - and the politicians - are full of talk about Peace ... and still many are disappointed or surprised that after many years of 'talks', nothing has been achieved. Why? Because one must aim for Justice, before one can attain Peace.
Like a sea
without shores
Like a home
without doors

Like a meadow
without grass
Like a window
without glass

It takes much more than words to achieve
So much more than a promise to believe

No justice, No peace
No justice, No peace
It is crystal clear to anyone who sees
Without justice there never will be peace

Like a heart
that never beats
Like a city
without streets

Like a safe
out a lock
Like no digits
on a clock

It takes much more than words to achieve
So much more than a promise to believe

No justice, no peace
No justice, no peace
It is crystal clear to anyone who sees
Without justice - there never will be peace

Like a forest
without trees
Like a hive
without bees

Like a wheel
that is square
Like a fur
without hair

It takes much more than words to achieve
So much more than a promise to believe

No justice, no peace
No justice, no peace
It is crystal clear to anyone who sees
Without justice - there never will be peace

What was stolen
has to be returned
Or the lesson
never will be learned.

There's no peace
on this we will insist
Without justice
We'll continue to resist

It takes much more than words to achieve
So much more than a promise, a promise to believe

No justice, no peace
No justice, no peace
It is crystal clear to anyone who sees
Without justice – there never will be peace

(To Palestine we shall return)

No justice, no peace
No justice, no peace
It is crystal clear to anyone who sees
Without justice – there never will be peace..
