Live About It (lo-fi) Lyrics
By Jamie Grace
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
