[Audience member] "Why do you feel that - you don't portray your message in a more positive way? I understand that, by looking around, that you may not be preaching to the already-converted and all, but it just seems like so much of your messages are told from the negative side. I was just wondering why don't you point out the more positive, uh, not aspects, but options?" People pass each other on the streets everyday You can see suspicion in their eyes They go reaching out, but then their heads will turn away People on the phone, why even try? Think of younger children and how well they communicate Children only act out of love because they haven't learned to hate, hate, yeah This is how they try to make us enemies But love proves that I can be your friend Instead of feeling anger, when we meet hostility We've got to try to understand Until there is justice for all There's no equality And for any rights we have We also have responsibility Yeah, yeah [Chorus] We've got to Love and let live Learn to forgive I'm reaching out to you Trying to get along It might be all that we can do People fight each other on the streets everyday That's because the system keeps you down We need a love revolution With not retribution Stop thinking, "Us versus them" The death penalty has never brought justice for anyone We've got to live with the spirit of love And stand .... by the gun, gun, yeah [Chorus] We've got to Love and let live Learn to forgive I'm reaching out to you Trying to get along It might be all that we can do [Guitar solo] [Chorus] We've got to Love and let live We've got to Learn to forgive We've got to love I'm reaching out to you Got to ...love..., yeah yeah yeah Can't we try to get along? Can't we try to get along? Can't we try to get along? Can't we try to get along?
