Peace will come to me Peace will come to me I'm leaving bitterness behind This time I'm cleaning up my mind There is no space for the regrets I will remember to forget Just look at me I am walking love incarnate Look at the frequencies of which I vibrate I'm going to light up the world Peace will come to me Peace will come to me I'm leaving anger in the past With all the shadows that it cast There is radar in my heart I should have trusted from the start Just look at me I am a living act of holiness Giving all the positive virtues that I possess I'm going to light up the world Peace will come to me Just wait and see Peace will come to me It's meant to be Peace will come to me Just wait and see Peace will come to me It's inevitability
