On a dit non à la guerre, personne n'écoute, personne n'entend
Avant tout enfant de la terre, les frontières ne sont qu'illusion
Une seule et même planète, une humanité aux mille facettes
Une humanité aux mille couleurs, une humanité qui meurt dans sa chair
On a dit non à la guerre, non à la famine, non à la peur de l'Autre
Non à obéir à la hiérarchie lorsqu'elle prononce des paroles de mort
Du sud au nord, qu'est-ce qu'on honore ? Quelles sont les valeurs ?
L'autre est ton miroir, frapper son reflet c'est s'frapper soi-même
Et l'briser c'est plus de 7 ans de malheur
Et l'histoire se répète... x4
On a dit non à la guerre, à la guerre, à la guerre... On a dit non ! x2
On a dit non à la guerre, non à la spirale meurtrière
C'est toujours les civils qui payent et toujours les mêmes erreurs qu'hier
Dis-moi qui a son cœur est fidèle ? Et je te dirai qui pense par lui-même
A l'ombre d'une querelle millénaire, il ne tient qu'à nous pour rejoindre la lumière
On a dit non à la mort de l'Autre, non à la haine, non aux rapports de forces
Non aux troupes armées d'une vengeance à vif
Dis, tes terroristes, qui leur vend leurs drogues ? qui leur vend leurs armes ?
C'est bien plus rentable d'tirer des engins que de faire la paix
Trouver des ennemis, l'innocent meurtri le deviendra demain
Et l'histoire se répète... x4
On a dit non à la guerre, à la guerre, à la guerre... On a dit non ! x2
On a dit non à la guerre, non à la perte humaine que vous dîtes collatérale
Non à l'exploitation de la misère qui pousse à traiter les Hommes comme des rats
La tête sous l'eau avant de voir le danger, on l'perçoit à la forme des vagues
On ne résout rien à exprimer des pulsions à la force des flammes
On a dit non à la guerre depuis qu'on a l'âge de comprendre
Part en prison pour une bagarre quand ton pays ne parle que de vengeance
De l'art d'être impitoyable, légitimise ses attaques
Avec des tas de palabres qui n'ont rien de vraies quand les bombes éclatent
Et l'histoire se répète... x4
On a dit non à la guerre, à la guerre, à la guerre... On a dit non ! x2
