perhaps these are the challenges

while children giggle, men go to war and neither the child nor the man really know what for, some say ideals and different ways, but who is the fool who wants to die today - who wants a child to die today?

while children play, men go to war and still neither one really can say what for, some say for land, for oil, for gold, but who is the fool who wants to be sold - who wants their child bought or sold?

while children learn, men go to war and still you can't teach the child what for, some say protection from one and other, but who is the fool who wants to kill his brother - who wants their child to kill his brother?

while children train, men go to war and still you can't train them to know what for, they learn all the skills that glorify kills, but who is the fool that glorifies kills - do you want your child to kill?

and then the child is called a man, and then the child follows the plan, and then the child goes to war, but still we do not know what for...

while children giggle, men go to war and either the child nor the man know what for, some say it's war's holy and justice is blind - but we all see the men learn their children behind - do you want to leave your child behind?

while children giggle, men go to war... men go to war where children play... who wants a child to die... today?
