"Get Along" lyrics
Some people say I'm different
I guess I've never been too good at fitting in
When I was young I wasn't listening
But now I pay attention
Blame it on my adolescent ignorance
Distracted from the facts
So oblivious
So listen real close while I'm spitting this
Learn something
Cash in on the benefits
'Cause the more you suffer, the more you make 'em rich
Imagine if we come together
Even though we all birds of a messed-up feather
We could fly so high and be stronger than ever
But they gonna keep us down if we let 'em
So, can't we all just get along?
It ain't about who's got it wrong
Left or right
Black or white
They got us fighting the same old fight
Yeah. We should all feel right at home
So, just know you're not alone
It's been weighing on me heavy
So, I had to write this song
Why can't we all just get along?
Every night I'm 'a pray for us
It's like our best days done ran away from us
Gotta be careful what you say or they'll cancel us
And try to lock us in a cage like some animals
Now, how the hell is this the land of the free
When I can't be me and just do as I please?
In the end it all comes down to what you believe
And I just hope that I can get you to see
That if we all just get along
It ain't about who's got it wrong
Left or right
Black or white
We're still fighting the same old fight
Yeah. We should all feel right at home
And just know you're not alone
It's been weighing on me heavy
So, I had to write this song
Why can't we all just get along?
Come on
Come on
'Cause if we all don't get along
God know we're gonna get it wrong
Left and right
Black and white
We gotta quit fighting the same damn fight
And that's all feel right at home
So, we know we're not alone
Yeah. Nobody wanna say it
So, I had to sing this song
Why can't we all just get along?
Why can't we all just get along?
Get along?
Get along?
Get along?
Why can't we all just get along?
I guess I've never been too good at fitting in
When I was young I wasn't listening
But now I pay attention
Blame it on my adolescent ignorance
Distracted from the facts
So oblivious
So listen real close while I'm spitting this
Learn something
Cash in on the benefits
'Cause the more you suffer, the more you make 'em rich
Imagine if we come together
Even though we all birds of a messed-up feather
We could fly so high and be stronger than ever
But they gonna keep us down if we let 'em
So, can't we all just get along?
It ain't about who's got it wrong

They got us fighting the same old fight
Yeah. We should all feel right at home
