How I Should Live

from Perspective by Dave Power

lyrics

Who am I to say that another think the same?
He lives what I live for and lesser know his name, well
Maybe I'm best to look through eyes without the blame.
Just maybe, that's how I should live.

Who am I to say that an eye goes for an eye?
That a loving voice can't steady that hallowed battle cry, well
Maybe I'll lower that gun to the thigh.
Just maybe, that's how I should live.

Brothers, sisters I will stand by you
To help you push on through the fight I'm facing too
Send the clouds away and focus on the blue
Cause I just need a different point of view
That's how I should live

Who am I to say that a marriage could be flawed?
That a man wed to another is against the word of god, well
Maybe acceptance will show it's simply love.
Just maybe, that's how I should live.

Brothers, sisters I will stand by you
To help you push on through the fight I'm facing too
Send the clouds away and focus on the blue
Cause I just need a different point of view
That's how I should live

Who am I to treat others differently?
Judgement on skin colour or rank in society, well
Maybe I'll tear down my childish vanities.
Just maybe, that's how I should live.

Brothers, sisters I will stand by you
To help you push on through the fight I'm facing too
Send the clouds away and focus on the blue
Cause I just need a different point of view
That's how I will live
