Lyrics
I don't wanna hear about another riot
Someone dying
At the wrong end of a gun
One more bullet might break my heart
Oh it sure is dark
Can we let in a little sun
I just wanna be a light, be a light, be a light
I just wanna be a light, every day and every night
And leave a better than I found it
A better than I found it
Leave a better than I found it world
Another outline on another sidewalk
It's not just hopscotch
Even rain can't wash that paint away
God won't let you give up on us
Oh what have we done
Look at all the chaos we create
I just wanna be a light, be a light, be a light
I just wanna be a light, every day and every night
And leave a better than I found it
A better than I found it
Leave a better than I found it world
Rapid fire love
Rapid fire love
That's my ammunition and I'm loading up
Rapid fire love
Rapid fire love
That's my ammunition
I wanna leave it
Just a little better, just a little better
Just a little better, just a little better
Just a little better, just a little better
Better than I found it
Better than I found it
Better than I found it world
I wanna leave
Oh, better
Oh, better
We gotta leave
I believe we can see
We can leave it better that we found it
Better than I found it
Leave a better world
