Why Can't We All Just Get Along

Jacob Whitesides


Hey, you, the world is on fire
I'm so sick and so tired
Of this blood in the water
Blood in the water

Words, turn into explosions
I'm so up in emotion
I thought we were brothers
Thought we were brothers

Love and forgiveness
Love and forgiveness
How we forget it
How we forget

Why can't we all just get along
Do we wanna be here 10 years later
Singing the same sad song
It don't have to take our last breath
To admit that we're wrong
Why can't we all just get along

We blow in like a hurricane
We kill all the good
We hurt one another
Hurt one another

Don't take this life for granted
We need second chances
As hard as it is
(C'mon people now)

Why can't we all just get along
Do we wanna be here 10 years later
Singing the same sad song
It don't have to take our last breath
To admit that we're wrong
Why can't we all just get along

I see a city where the haters go
I see a city where we're all still talking
I see beautiful lights
Turns battlefields into paradise

I'll be the first one to lay down my guard
I'll be here waiting for you to come
There can be peace
Love can be found, together
Theres got to be common grounds

Why can't we all just get along
Do we wanna be here 10 years later
Singing the same sad song
It don't have to take our last breath
To admit that we're wrong
Why can't we all just get along

Why can't we all just get along
Do we wanna be here 10 years later
Singing the same sad song
It don't have to take our last breath
To admit that we're wrong
Why can't we all just get along
