GET OUT AND VOTE!
The Best Reasons To Vote - "Love is My Vote"(Official Video)
Lyrics to the song in the video
PRELUDE
I vote for love, peace, and understanding.
Love, peace, and understanding.
VERSE 1
I used to think that right and wrong were super arch enemies.
One beats the other, just like it's supposed to be.
But then I find out that right and wrong were really friends. You see-
Pawns in a larger game, with a common destiny.
Right seeks loving in what we do.
And wrong seeks loving in what we shouldn't.
They only win together and cry when they couldn't.
Right and Wrong are friends seeking love.
Who knew it?
CHORUS
Love is my vote. It's called representation.
Hopin' that the hurtin', will get some healin'.
All can't vote, so I do what I can.
Report what I see, take a stand.
'Cause things ain't equal. I know that's true.
This is one thing I'm determined to do.
Vote.
VERSE 2
I keep Kung Fu friendly, It really does matter.
With trust broken, community shattered.
I wish we could talk beyond all the sound bites.
Deal with the real, ... gain some insight.
We all know pain. We all know fear.
We all have seen better or else we wouldn't be here.
Give the love you want. Give the love you know.
Open up the dam ... and let the love flow.
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Can you represent...
Kids in the neighborhood that can't escape poverty.
The aliens and immigrants that challenge our humanity.
Groups that come together ... searching for equality.
Survivors, of sicknesses, that plague all our communities.
Survivors, of sicknesses, that plague all our communities.
(Love, peace, and understanding)
Can you represent...
Neighbors in the world, searching for democracy.
The troops 'round the world, the loved ones they long to see.
Our enemies, near and far, and their desperate families.
The victims, the loved ones, of so many tragedies.
(Love, peace, and understanding)
Can you represent...
The old, the young, the forgotten, the lonely.
The homeless, jobless, rejected, hungry
The Knocked down, grieving, depressed, and angry.
The quiet ones ... that most people don't see.
Love is my vote. It's called representation.
Hopin' that the hurtin', will get some healin'.
All can't vote, so I do what I can.
Report what I see, take a stand.
'Cause things ain't equal. I know that's true.
This is one thing I'm determined to do.
Vote. Vote.
