India Arie - Better People lyrics
rate meYeah, yeah, I wish there was a video game<br />
To teach you your ancestors name<br />
I wish there was a phone number<br />
Like 1 800 Save Your Brother<br />
<br />
I'm thankful for the radio station<br />
Not afraid to put the truth in rotation<br />
There are skirts of information<br />
That you can only get in conversation with<br />
<br />
Young people who talk to<br />
Old people, it would make us all<br />
Better people all around, yes, it would<br />
<br />
And if old people would talk to<br />
Young people, it would make us all<br />
Better people all around, yes, it would<br />
<br />
Yeah, yeah, we went from radio to TV<br />
Now we're going from LP to CD<br />
Don't be afraid to try something new<br />
<br />
Yeah, I can help you with the brand new technology<br />
You can help me with the age old philosophy<br />
Together there's so much we can do with<br />
<br />
Young people who talk to<br />
Old people, it would make us all<br />
Better people all around, yes, it would<br />
<br />
If old people would talk to<br />
Young people, it would make us all<br />
Better people all around, yes, it would<br />
<br />
Yeah, yeah, they say that every<br />
Generation gets worse<br />
They call it generational curse<br />
But these problems tend to strive off the sky, yeah<br />
<br />
But listen to Mahatma Ghandi's words<br />
And 'Be The Change You Want To See In The World'<br />
Start with yourself and healing will multiply<br />
<br />
That's what happens when<br />
Young people who talk to<br />
Old people, it would make us all<br />
Better people all around, yes, it would<br />
<br />
If old people would talk to<br />
Young people, it would make us all<br />
Better people all around<br />
<br />
Yeah, yeah, if black people<br />
Would talk to white people<br />
It would make us better people all around<br />
<br />
Yeah, yeah, if Republican people<br />
Would talk to Democratic people<br />
It would make us diplomatic people all around<br /><br />
