Fire It Up
She's sitting, staring out a window
Trying to figure out just what to do
The last time that she gave her heart away
It came back broken in two
Like an old abandoned car
She parked it down off Lonely Avenue
And she forget about it 'til the day
She laid her eves on you
And her heart said, "Fire it up"
And her soul said, "Fire it up"
And her mind said, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
He's sitting in a subway station
Watching as the trains go flying by
He used to hate the black man 'til a black man
Reached out and saved his life
He was pulled out of the darkness
Rescued and blinded by the light
Ain't it crazy how one simple act of kindness
Can open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
And let your heart say, "Fire it up"
And let your soul say, "Fire it up"
And let your mind say, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
Here we are together
You and me still trying to figure out the world
Searching for a reason to believe in
What makes this big ball turn?
But if we hold on to each other
Give love, show love for all love's worth
Yeah, they might call us crazy
But, tell me who's it gonna hurt?
Who's it gonna hurt?
And let her heart say, "Fire it up"
And let her soul say, "Fire it up"
And let her mind say, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
And let your heart say, "Fire it up"
And let your soul say, "Fire it up"
And let your mind say, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
And let your heart say, "Fire it up"
And let your soul say, "Fire it up"
Trying to figure out just what to do
The last time that she gave her heart away
It came back broken in two
Like an old abandoned car
She parked it down off Lonely Avenue
And she forget about it 'til the day
She laid her eves on you
And her heart said, "Fire it up"
And her soul said, "Fire it up"
And her mind said, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
He's sitting in a subway station
Watching as the trains go flying by
He used to hate the black man 'til a black man
Reached out and saved his life
He was pulled out of the darkness
Rescued and blinded by the light
Ain't it crazy how one simple act of kindness
Can open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
And let your heart say, "Fire it up"
And let your soul say, "Fire it up"
And let your mind say, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
Here we are together
You and me still trying to figure out the world
Searching for a reason to believe in
What makes this big ball turn?
But if we hold on to each other
Give love, show love for all love's worth
Yeah, they might call us crazy
But, tell me who's it gonna hurt?
Who's it gonna hurt?
And let her heart say, "Fire it up"
And let her soul say, "Fire it up"
And let her mind say, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
And let your heart say, "Fire it up"
And let your soul say, "Fire it up"
And let your mind say, "Fire it up"
Let love live again
And let your heart say, "Fire it up"
And let your soul say, "Fire it up"
