|
In the past we've been told to fear |
|
Strange new things as they're coming near |
|
Sometimes we listen without heed or care |
|
We let our minds close before we see what is there |
|
It's not like we try to let the world fly by |
|
Without thinking of truth or what is all right |
|
So if you stop to consider a world that is bigger |
|
We might just stop and consider this world |
|
Chorus: |
|
Come as you are, Oh come as you are (x4) |
|
There's no room for anger and hatred |
|
Of people and things we have not faced yet |
|
We're so quick to condemn by the color of skin |
|
Before we look closely at what makes a heart beat |
|
So if you take a step backwards |
|
And see how awkward it is to stay closed and protected in castles |
|
You may come to a new understanding of freedom |
|
When you wave your arms and shout in the air |
|
Chorus |
