India Arie - Better People lyrics

Yeah, yeah, I wish there was a video game<br />

To teach you your ancestors name<br />

I wish there was a phone number<br />

Like 1 800 Save Your Brother<br />

<br />

I'm thankful for the radio station<br />

Not afraid to put the truth in rotation<br />

There are skirts of information<br />

That you can only get in conversation with<br />

<br />

Young people who talk to<br />

Old people, it would make us all<br />

Better people all around, yes, it would<br />

<br />

And if old people would talk to<br />

Young people, it would make us all<br />

Better people all around, yes, it would<br />

<br />

Yeah, yeah, we went from radio to TV<br />

Now we're going from LP to CD<br />

Don't be afraid to try something new<br />

<br />

Yeah, I can help you with the brand new technology<br />

You can help me with the age old philosophy<br />

Together there's so much we can do with<br />

<br />

Young people who talk to<br />

Old people, it would make us all<br />

Better people all around, yes, it would<br />

<br />

If old people would talk to<br />

Young people, it would make us all<br />

Better people all around, yes, it would<br />

<br />

Yeah, yeah, they say that every<br />

Generation gets worse<br />

They call it generational curse<br />

But these problems tend to strive off the sky, yeah<br />

<br />

But listen to Mahatma Ghandi's words<br />

And 'Be The Change You Want To See In The World'<br />

Start with yourself and healing will multiply<br />

<br />

That's what happens when<br />

Young people who talk to<br />

Old people, it would make us all<br />

Better people all around, yes, it would<br />

<br />

If old people would talk to<br />

Young people, it would make us all<br />

Better people all around<br />

<br />

Yeah, yeah, if black people<br />

Would talk to white people<br />

It would make us better people all around<br />

<br />

Yeah, yeah, if Republican people<br />

Would talk to Democratic people<br />

It would make us diplomatic people all around<br /><br />
