I need a bit of love

Need a little trust

Need some love

Lotta love right now

There's been pain from the start

Lotta pain in my heart

Need to change but I don't know how

R.I.P. to Nathan, sadly he was taken by an officer

Who got the word that something had been taken

By a darker male the only way that they depict him

Came up to Nate to accusate cuz' he fit a description

"No, no sir, I got my receipt right here"

Reached in his pocket, "That's a gun!" Cops let six shots flare

Down goes Nate, wrong place at the wrong time

Whole thing on tape but the cop never did time

R.I.P. Officer Mason it's so sad that he was taken

His family loved him known to do his job amazing

'til a **** who was fed up grabbed his nine and started waiting to shoot at first sign of a badge, and a man who was caucasian

Damn, when did we get like this

Seems like everyday we add few more names to the list

The innocent don't stay alive

The children are desensitized

And to be honest I'm scared I'm the next one that they'll hit

I need a bit of love

Need a little trust

Need some love

Lotta love right now

There's been pain from the start

Lotta pain in my heart

Need to change but I don't know how

Seems like every little difference is a dividend

Whether the person that they love, who they praise or their skin

I know I'm different, but they say we're all one in the same

But why my difference come with all of this pain

Tired of all of this pain

Time to put this to rest

If we're all one in the same

I think it's time to accept

They always talking bout' the future is near

Nah man, man the future is here

How the Hell are we still living in fear

It's like we fear them, cuz' they fear us

And we'll hate them, and they'll hurt us

And we'll hurt us, and we'll hurt them

And the fear, the hate, the hurt just starts all over again

Here's a bit of love

Here's a little trust

Here's some love

Lotta love right now

Can't take the pain in my heart

Need some change in my heart

'Cause we need change and it starts right now

If there's hate, there's no way that we'll grow

And hate is just the fear of what we don't know

If we get to know each other as brothers, see what we've missed

Then I'll be empathetic simply for the fact you exist

I'll give love

Empathy because you exist

I'll give love

Regardless of what the circumstance is

I'll give love

No more living in fear

I'm giving love for as long as I'm here

Cause if there's hate

There's no way that we'll grow

And hate is just the fear of what we don't know

If we get to know each other as brothers, see what we've missed

Then I'll be empathetic simply for the fact you exist

I'll give love

Empathy because you exist

I'll give love

Regardless of what the circumstance is

I'll give love

I'm done living in fear

I'm giving love for as long as I'm here

And I say

Give a bit of love

Give a little love

Give some love

Gotta love right now

No more pain in my heart

We're the same in my heart

Start the chain of the change right now
