Why Hate When You Can Love?
[Verse 1]
Why hate when you can love?
I don't understand

Hello up above
We're in a war zone, come take my hand
I just wanna know that this has an end

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't recognize ourselves when I look in the mirror
What have become?
We're cryin' like a river
Mama always said to love peace and not war
So tell me why the battlefield is at our front door
Oh I can't take it anymore

[Chorus]
When will we stop
Looking over our shoulder
When will we stop
The world is getting colder
When will we stop the hatred, bring the love
Stop the shootings, god bless those up above
Why hate when you can love?
Why hate when you can love? (Why hate when you can love?)
Why hate when you can love? (Why hate when you can love?)
Why hate when you can love? (Why hate when you can love?)
Why hate when you can love?

[Verse 2]
Hearts break, watching the news
Hearts break, fear in our schools
How long do our hearts have to keep breaking?

No change, time after time
No change, all that we try
Let's come together and make it right

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't recognize ourselves when I look in the mirror
What have become?
We're cryin' like a river
Mama always said to love peace and not war
So tell me why the battlefield is at our front door
Oh I can't take it anymore

[Chorus]
When will we stop
Looking over our shoulder
When will we stop
The world is getting colder
When will we stop the hatred, bring the love
Stop the shootings, god bless those up above
Why hate when you can love?
Why hate when you can love? (Why hate when you can love?)
Why hate when you can love? (Why hate when you can love?)
Why hate when you can love? (Why hate when you can love?)
Why hate when you can love? (Love)

[Outro]
Actions speak louder than words, this is how our kids will learn to raise their voices (Love)
Why give up, why just give in?
Only got one life to live (Love)
Take my hand (Love)

Actions speak louder than words, this is how our kids will learn to raise their voices (Love)
Why give up, why just give in?
Only got one life to live (Love)
Take my hand, and sing
