Better Way

Let my people go

Let my people go

In the swamps of New Orleans

The rain came pouring down

So heavy was the water

That the walls came crashing down

Now I know a survivor

But how the hell you justify

Leaving 100,000 people in water that high

Just struggling for their lives

[Chorus]

I know there's got to be a

Better way

I know there's got to be a

Better way

I know there's got to be a

Better way

And we've got to find it

(Stand up) we've got to find it

(Or fall down) we've got to find it

Politicians are screaming

They say we've got a reason for war

So many people are dying

And we ain't even sure what for

Is it because he's a Muslim?

Tell me is it democracy or is it the oath

It's on the news every day

One paycheck away

And the President's on the golf course

I know there's got to be a

Better way

I know there's got to be a

Better way

I know there's got to be a

Better way

And we've got to find it

(You got to stand together) we've got to find it

(Or we could fall apart) we've got to find it

Sweet buttered craw dad

Delta bread

Hot pepper soul that's been sold out

Lives that were taken before they found out

What life was all about

He's a genius with the lyrics

Started young sipping syrup

And it hurts me to my soul

The way he drinks away the pain

The world's going to lose him

Another young superhero

We've got to find it x8

I see the children on TV

It's become a sign of the times

Glorifying their bodies

Something just don't feel right

Still we keep pretending

That boys and girls are men and women

We watch it and we call it entertainment

And everything is okay as long as somebody's getting paid

I know there's got to be a

Better way

I know there's got to be a

Better way

There's got to be a

Better way

And we've got to find it

We've got to find it

We've got to find it
