best of us

Singer:cherry, eagle-eye

now the best of us are working

and tryna feed our kids

losin' and a hurtin'

and a-learning to forgive

now hate is like a bullet

tryna blow the world apart

while we scratch our heads and wonder

how'd it get so far

whoa

hope is never gone

when we try to understand

what's hard to understand

whoa

come on

everyone

don't let the worst of us

get the best of us

the best of us are teaching

and tryna keep us safe

while the preacher

he is preaching

about how we lose our way

well some of us are blinded

and find it hard to see

are reaching for each other

no it don't make us weak

whoa

hope is never gone

when we try to understand

what's hard to understand

whoa

come on

everyone

don't let the worst of us

get the best of us

oh

come on

everyone

the best of us are dying

brings us to our knees

the circle must be broken

for history repeat

now we say

whoa

hope is never gone

when we try to understand

what's hard to understand

whoa

come on

everyone

don't let the worst of us

get the best of us

its never gone

yeah

come on

yeah

come on

everyone

gotta say

whoa

hope is never gone

when we try to understand

what's hard to understand

whoa

come on

everyone

don't let the worst of us

get the best of us

don't let the worst of us

get the best of us

don't let the worst of us

get the best of us
