"Imagine"

Imagine there's no heaven

Its easy if you try
No hell bellow us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries

It isnt hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm dreamer

But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Its a great idea to not have hell or heaven but like the song says, its only for dreamers, I
wish the world could go on without any kind of religion and just live in peace, with no
anger of the countrys or any war, but the people cant live without possessions, even the
smallest thing can be and precious object or just a thing that its yours, so you cant live
without possessions, even the nomads had possession without the knowledge so its
going to be impossible for the world to live the way he thinks.
Living without hunger is the worlds dream, but its something that even with all the years
that the human kind have in earth its almost impossible to achieve, people around the
world live with greed in his heart, even lust, envy and more sins to talk about, and thats
the main problem of the world, the people that arent willing to change for the sake of
the world population.

I hope the world can find peace among all the countrys and we can live as one big
country or just people of plant earth, but like the song says, its only for dreamers, but
dreaming cost nothing so I expect for the people of the world to change how they think
and with that change the world.
