Michael Franti is singing about how we go to war and bomb all of our enemies. He sings “we can bomb the world to pieces but we can’t bomb it into peace.” This line, which is the heart of this song, is suggesting that uncivilized war and confrontation is never the way to end problems. Other matters must be taken. The tune of the song is semi upbeat and the backup singers help to vocalize the passion in the song.
