Live About It (lo-fi)
He ran with the poor, dined with the sick
Found the women and men living in sin
He would befriend them, not just to go fix them
The children would run to sit by His side
Tradition would say, "Not too close, not this time"
He would call for them, oh he would sit with them
You could call it opposites attract
For a king to live among the pack
Or just call it like it is
The way we need to live
I don't wanna hear a song about it
If we can't live about it
No we can't sing about it
No we can't write about it
If we don't do something about it
Don't want no songs about it
If we can't live about it
If we can't live about it
He broke down the walls of all protocol
Not even yet born but they found a home
Just an immigrant, he was an immigrant
And as he grew up, his empathy too
He would die to give live for me and you
An immigrant, he was an immigrant
You could call it opposites attract
For a king to live among the pack
Or just call it like it is
The way we need to live
I don't wanna hear a song about it
If we can't live about it
No we can't sing about it
No we can't write about it
If we don't do something about it
Don't want no songs about it
If we can't live about it
If we can't live about it
The broken, the burdened, imprisoned and poor
The wealthy, the widowed, skin different than yours
The orphan, the outcasts, who beg and who don't
The hungry, the hurting, and without a home
The people who pray to a God, we don't serve
The protestor marching for what we don't want
The stranger who knocks on our door without code
Just begging for freedom that challenges ours
I don't wanna hear another (song about it)
If we can't (live about it)
Then we can't (sing about it)
No we can't (write about it)
If we don't do (something about it)
Don't want no (songs about it)
If we can't (live about it)
If we can't, if we can't
I don't want no (song about it)
If we can't (live about it)
Then we can't (sing about it)
No (write about it)
Said I'm so tired, I'm so tired, I'm so tired (something about it, song about it)
(Live about it)
(Live about it)
No we can't love
If we can't love
Even when we don't wanna love
We can't call it love
If we don't love
Even when we don't wanna love
Found the women and men living in sin
He would befriend them, not just to go fix them
The children would run to sit by His side
Tradition would say, "Not too close, not this time"
He would call for them, oh he would sit with them
You could call it opposites attract
For a king to live among the pack
Or just call it like it is
The way we need to live
I don't wanna hear a song about it
If we can't live about it
No we can't sing about it
No we can't write about it
If we don't do something about it
Don't want no songs about it
If we can't live about it
If we can't live about it
He broke down the walls of all protocol
Not even yet born but they found a home
Just an immigrant, he was an immigrant
And as he grew up, his empathy too

Then we can't (sing about it)
No (write about it)
Said I'm so tired, I'm so tired, I'm so tired (something about it, song about it)
(Live about it)
(Live about it)
No we can't love
If we can't love
Even when we don't wanna love
We can't call it love
If we don't love
Even when we don't wanna love
