Live About It (lo-fi) lyrics

Verse 1

He ran with the poor, dined with the sick

Found the women and men living in sin

He would befriend them, not just to go fix them.

The children would run to sit by His side

Tradition would say, “not too close, not this time”

He would call for them, oh He would sit with them.

Pre chorus

You could call it opposites attract,

For a king to live among the pack

Or just call it like it is, the way we need to live.

Chorus

I don’t wanna hear a song about it

If we can’t live about it

No, we can’t sing about it

No, we can’t write about it

If we don’t do something about it

Don’t want no songs about it

If we can’t live about it

If we can’t live about it

Verse 2

He broke down the walls of all protocol

Not even yet born but they found a home

Just an immigrant, He was an immigrant.

And as He grew up, His empathy too

He would die to give life for me and you

An immigrant, He was an immigrant

Pre chorus

You could call it opposites attract,

For a king to live among the pack

Or just call it like it is, the way we need to live.

Chorus

I don’t wanna hear a song about it

If we can’t live about it

No, we can’t sing about it

No, we can’t write about it

If we don’t do something about it

Don’t want no songs about it

If we can’t live about it

If we can’t live about it

Bridge

The broken, the burdened

Imprisoned and poor

The wealthy, the widowed

Skin different than yours

The orphan, the outcasts

Who beg and who don’t

The hungry, the hurting

Without a home

The people who pray to a god we don’t serve

The protestor marching for what we don’t want

The stranger who knocks on our door without code

Just begging for freedom that challenges ours

Chorus

I don’t wanna hear a song about it

If we can’t live about it

No, we can’t sing about it

No, we can’t write about it

If we don’t do something about it

Don’t want no songs about it

If we can’t live about it

If we can’t live about it

Verse 3

We can’t love

If we can’t love

Even when we don’t wanna love

We can’t call it love

If we don’t love

Even when we don’t wanna love
