Lyrics to “Us”:
Done
I’m trying to numb the pain That only we
Could ever change
Still
We’re running everyday I wanna know
Why we’re afraid
Pre Chorus:
Can we believe Again
If it was just for a day Would we still feel the same
Can we Believe
in Justice today
Would we still be the same if..
Hook:
All of us
Could see that
No One’s to blame
All of us Realize
Our heart beat the same
