We Make Peace by Piece
Ooh
Do you want to see me
If I break it down I wonder can you ever know me
Who do I have to be in your eyes for my humanity
To rise up in your heart and give my soul a shot
To be seen to be to be to be seen
Can you see me
In all of my humanity
Where piece by piece
We make peace by piece
I want to see you
Past the hate that clouds my vision of the whole you
Into your heart that keeps the most cherished parts of you
Dreams and memories that reveal the depths of you
Perfection is not my expectation, please help me
Know you the whole you
Can I see you
Every cherished part of you
Where piece by piece
We make peace by piece
In a safe space, we can clear our eyes
By tearing down these walls we've built deep down inside
Block by block, we need not find our safety in a house of lies
Let's stop forsaking our children's future through our stubborn pride
Let's learn to value to forgive more than how we collide
I want to start by loving the part of you that hears my cry
I want your heart to feel it has a cherished home in mine
The more we care the more we find a way to live side-by-side
Scream if you believe
In this life we can achieve
Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-aoo
Ra-da-da-un-day-rite-dow daw-oh-hey
La-da-dun-day
(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-aoo)
La-dun-day da-un-da-da-doo-day da-da-doo-day
(Ra-da-da-un-day-rite-dow daw-oh-hey)
Can we be us
The very best of us
Where piece by piece
We make peace by piece
We are each other's mirror when we empathize
Our differences refract the same light we can shine
Divine is our right to bring hope to our children's eyes
Can we be us
The very best of us
Where piece by piece
We make peace by piece
Do you want to see me
If I break it down I wonder can you ever know me
Who do I have to be in your eyes for my humanity
To rise up in your heart and give my soul a shot
To be seen to be to be to be seen
Can you see me
In all of my humanity
Where piece by piece
We make peace by piece
I want to see you
Past the hate that clouds my vision of the whole you
Into your heart that keeps the most cherished parts of you
Dreams and memories that reveal the depths of you
Perfection is not my expectation, please help me
Know you the whole you
Can I see you
Every cherished part of you
Where piece by piece
We make peace by piece
In a safe space, we can clear our eyes
By tearing down these walls we've built deep down inside
Block by block, we need not find our safety in a house of lies
Let's stop forsaking our children's future through our stubborn pride
Let's learn to value to forgive more than how we collide

Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out
