Cut them down Try to cast them out Find a box to fit them in 'Cause of where they're from Or who they love Or the color of their skin If that makes sense to you Then the way you're living Your life is all wrong The strength it takes you To feed your hate Only drains your soul Until it's gone You can see With your own two eyes What's plain and clear as day But when you work so hard To be so blind You're just throwing your eyes away We don't learn to love That's what's wired Into our soul The strength you gain When you let it reign Brings you so much more Than any gold Hate (Hunh!) People It's a heavy burden to shoulder It stoops you over And makes your spirit colder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Cross a bridge Or build a wall The choice is there to make A wall will always Hide your lies When you know your truth is fake So if hate is what you preach You better be sure You know how to swim 'Cause a sea of change That'll drown your rage Is rising and the tide Is coming in Hate (Hunh!) People It's a heavy burden to shoulder It stoops you over And makes your spirit colder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) I said hate (Hunh!) People If you back away it smoulders So stand your ground And face it down With love 'cause love is bolder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) You can build a wall or You can cross a bridge The choice is yours to make But a stronger heart Will march across Any bridge in the face of hate So if hate is what you teach You better be sure You learn how to swim 'Cause a sea of change That'll drown your rage Is rising and the tide Is coming in Oh Hate (Hunh!) People It's a heavy burden to shoulder It stoops you over And makes your spirit colder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) I tell you hate (Hunh!) People If you back away it smoulders So stand your ground And face it down With love 'cause love is bolder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Love is bolder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah) Love is bolder Whoa whoa whoa whoa (Ooh ooh ooh aah)
