Flower in the Gun
We could be the healin'
When you're feeling all alone
We could be the reason
To find the strength to carry on
In a world that's so divided
We shall overcome
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
What would I say to my son or to my daughter
If they came and asked me 'bout these days
What kinda reason could I give for all the hate that's standing in the way
Wish I could tell 'em that nobody's gonna judge them
And every stranger on the block is gonna love them
No bully in the world will ever hurt 'em
But I can't say that today, no
No one could ever take your pride from you
Speak your truth and let your spirit fly
'Cause we could be the healin'
When you're feeling all alone
We could be the reason (yeah)
To find the strength to carry on
In a world that's so divided
We shall overcome
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
What could I say to every woman who was ever told
By a man, "Don't try to reach too high"
What could I say to every girl who was betrayed
And told to keep the pain locked inside
Wish I could say nobody's ever judge me
Every stranger on the block is gonna love me
No bully in the world is gonna hurt me
But I can't say that today, no, no
No one could ever take my pride from me
I'll speak my truth and let my spirit fly
'Cause we could be the healin'
When you're feeling all alone
We could be the reason (yeah)
To find the strength to carry on
In a world that's so divided
We shall overcome
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
It's like somebody dropping a pebble into the ocean
And seeing 'em ripples out to the world
Let me hear you say
Whoa (whoa)
Yeah (yeah)
Whoa (whoa)
Yeah (yeah)
Everybody say
Whoa (whoa)
Yeah (yeah)
Whoa (whoa)
Yeah
'Cause we could be the healin'
When you're feeling all alone
We could be the reason (yeah)
To find the strength to carry on
In a world that's so divided (uh, uh)
We shall overcome
We could be the healing (yeah)
We can be the flower in the gun (flower in the gun)
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
We could be the healing (we could be the healing)
We can be the flower in the gun
We could be the healing
We could be the flower in the gun
When you're feeling all alone
We could be the reason
To find the strength to carry on
In a world that's so divided
We shall overcome
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
We could be the healing
We can be the flower in the gun
