Sometimes a hand is just a hand

Sometimes a man is just a man

Sometimes what's running through our veins

Is the same color when it rains

Cut us open, we all bleed just the same

But you know hope, it’s never lost, it's just hard to find

And you know love sometimes burns a lot, but that fire keeps us alive

So won't you open up your heart

Until there’s space inside your chest

And won't you open up your lungs

Until they're burning with your breath

Just take it all in and let it all go

Love more, keep faith, have hope

Even when it hurts the most

Sometimes a gun is just a gun

Until you point it at someone

Sometimes one bullet makes a shot

One straight line rips us apart

‘Cause we're all on this earth until until we're not

But you know hope, it's never lost, it's just hard to find

And every wound turns into a scar if you give it time

So won't you open up your heart

Until there’s space inside your chest

And won’t you open up your lungs

Until they're burning with your breath

Just take it all in and let it all go

Love more, keep faith, have hope

Even when it hurts the most

Sometimes war is just the violent beating of a heart

Pounding at the fences that are tearing us apart

Lay your weapons down, and armor is just open arms

A fist is just a greeting flagged

So unfurl those fingers and…

Sometimes a hand is just a hand

Sometimes a man is just a man

Sometimes the color of our skins is just some pigments gathering

And who we love isn’t a statement, an attack, or an agenda

Just someone who makes us feel human

So won't you open up your heart

Until there's space inside your chest

And won't you open up your lungs

Until they’re burning with your breath

Just take it all in and let it all go

Love more, keep faith, have hope

Even when it hurts

Even when it hurts the most
