"Why Can't We All Unite" lyrics

I need an explanation
For brothers dying, black and white
Two wrongs don't make a right
Why can't we all unite

The way of true salvation
Is to love both black and white
Instead we fuss and fight
Why can't we all unite

And help a brother
When he's doing bad (When he's doing bad)
Oh, try to cheer him up, people (Cheer him up)
When he's feeling sad (When he's feeling sad)

Oh, be his light
When his darkest day is here
And be his strength
When his mind is filled with fear (Fear)

Show your love for mankind

War machines keep on moving (Keep on moving)
Killing everything in sight
It makes me so uptight
Why can't we all unite

Hallelujah, and help a brother
When he's doing bad (When he's doing bad)
Oh, try to cheer him up, people (Cheer him up)
When he's feeling sad (When he's feeling sad)

Oh, be his light
When his darkest day is here
And be his strength
When his mind is filled with fear (Fear)

Show your love for mankind
Show your love for mankind
Show your love for mankind

We fuss and we fight (Why can't we all unite, well, alright)
Why can't we unite (Why can't we all unite, well, alright)
Doing bad (Why can't we all unite, well, alright)
Oh, make me glad (Why can't we all unite, well, alright)
Killing, yeah (Why can't we all unite, well, alright)
Don't make sense to me (Why can't we all unite, well, alright)
