Better Way - India Arie
Yeah, yeah

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 a hundred thousand
People in water that high
Just struggling for their lives?
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 gotta find it
Stand up
(We've gotta find it)
Or fall down
(We've gotta 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 gotta find it
You got to stand together
(We've gotta find it)
Or we could fall apart
(We've gotta find it)
We've gotta find it, yeah
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 gotta find it
We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it

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

Hey, there's got to be a better way

And we've gotta find it

We've gotta find it
We've gotta find it
