[Intro]
Hands up
Palms out
Look around
We the crowd
[Verse 1]
Same bus ride
Same cracked seat
Different colors
Same worn street
You got scars
I got too
Every headline
Feels like you
We talk rage
Never talk pain
Pointing fingers
We all the same
[Chorus]
Don’t shoot each other
We bleed the same red
Put down your pride
Put down that lead
Don’t shoot each other
Hear what I said
We all one heartbeat
Don’t turn it to dead
[Verse 2]
Your mom prays
Mine does too
Shaking hands
In the waiting room
You see threat
Where I see fear
Every shout
Just says “come here”
We need love
More than a win
Can’t heal hate
With more within
[Chorus]
Don’t shoot each other
We bleed the same red
Put down your pride
Put down that lead
Don’t shoot each other
Hear what I said
We all one heartbeat
Don’t turn it to dead
[Bridge]
What if today
We walk away
Drop that word
You planned to say
What if tonight
Nobody falls
Only echoes
Of mercy calls (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Don’t shoot each other
We bleed the same red
Put down your pride
Put down that lead
Don’t shoot each other
Hear what I said
We all one heartbeat
Don’t turn it to dead
