You can bet your bottom dollar
You can try until your death
You can talk until your face turns blue
But you'll only waste your breath
Cause some folks only see the things
That we can both see through
And all the explanations
Cannot change their points of view
Some folks live with hatred
While some folks live with fear
Scared to open up their minds
Afraid of what they'll hear
Me, I sit here on this porch
And watch the world go by
Knowing what we could have been
Will haunt me 'til I die
Mama said that everyone
Does the best that they can do
And while I admired her wisdom
I'm not so sure that's true
Some folks live for only greed
The truth is plain to see
But our hope is in each other
And the love in you and me
