the good in us - neal fox lyrics
i heard the terrifying news today
the lady said that i was full of hate
she said our history would die away
she said that we were never really great
and then she said i’d never be her brother
that we would have to pay for what we’ve done
that we could never learn to live together
and life would be much better when we’re gone
[chorus]
oh. won’t you tell me what you see
oh. are you a slave, or are you free?
we must open up our eyes
long before we turn to dust
cause the blind will never see the good in us
then someone said it’s in our dna
embedded in us from the very start
he told us how he struggles to this day
and many thought he spoke right from the heart
then once again the lie was resurrected
then once again they showed us how to hate
and once again our souls became infected
and violence and fear would be our fate
[chorus]
from childhood through to college graduation
they teach them there are things not to discuss
hypnotic and myopic education
and the blind will never see the good in us
a wise man said don’t judge them by their color
we need to see the character within
all races have their villains and their heroes
you only need to look beyond the skin
[chorus]
coda
it’s not hard to see
the good in all of us
