India Arie - Better People Lyrics




Yeah, yeah!

Yeah, yeah!

I wish there was a video game
To teach you your ancestors name
I wish there was a phone number
Like 1-800-Save-Your-Brother

I'm thankful for the radio station
Not afraid to put the truth in rotation
There is certain information
That you can only get in conversation when

[Chorus:]
Young people, would talk to
Old people, it would make us a
Better people all around
Yes, it would

And if old people would talk to
Young people, it would make us a
Better people all around
(Yes, it would)
Yeah, yeah

We went from radio to TV
And we're going from LP to CD
Don't be afraid to try something new

I can help you with the brand new technology
You can help me with the age old philosophy
Together there's so much we can do when

[Chorus:]
Young people would talk to
Old people, it would make us a
Better people all around
Yes, it would

If old people would talk to
Young people, it would make us a
Better people all around

They say every generation gets worse
Call it a generational curse
These problems don't just drop out the sky (yeah)

Listen to Mahatma Gandhi's words
Be the change you want to see in the world
Start with yourself and healing will multiply- hy, hy, hy
That's what happens with

[Chorus:]
Young people, talk to
Old people, it would make us a
Better people all around
Yes, it would

If old people would talk to
Young people, (young people)
Better people all around, (ooh), yeah, yeah

If black people would talk to
White people, it would make us a
Better people all around
(Yeah, yeah)

If Republican people would talk to
Democratic people [laugh], it would make us
Diplomatic people [laugh] all around
