can we fix our nation s broken heart

Stevie Wonder

Can we fix our nation s broken heart?
Are we brave enough to try? Mm-mm
Can we fix our nation s broken heart
And leave a better world behind?

Cause if we listen to different thoughts
and points of views
All my brothers and sisters, we don t have to lose
Humanity
We re family
So can we please
Fix our nation s broken heart

Children marching down the boulevard
Tears are streaming down their face, oh-oh
Tension in the air is so bizarre
Love has gone without a trace

People pushing and shouting and fighting through the haze
And all this sadness, madness, help me take away the pain
It s gotta change
This can t stay the same
So tell me please
Can we fix our nation s broken heart?

Poverty and homelessness
Can we do away with this?
All we need to is to be giving
For our daughters and our sons
There s a light in everyone
They deserve a new beginning, yeah

Will the light we share survive the dark
Or will it slowly fade away? Ah-ah
Will the light of good be torn apart
And swept away by crushing waves?

We ve been floating alone in a dark and bitter cold
Cause there s a growing ocean of lies that we ve been told
To tear us down
But what I ve found
Is with our truth, compassion and love
We can fix our nation s broken hear

Can we fix our nation s broken heart?
Are we brave enough to try? Hey-ey
We must fix our nation s broken heart
To leave a better world behind

We ve come together with purpose far bigger than you and me
Don t have no time for hatred and negativity
It s you and me
We hold the key
So tell me please
Can we fix our nation s broken heart?

Can we fix our nation s broken heart?
I know and you know
We must fix our nation s broken heart
