[Verse 1]

What's your excuse?

Can you explain?

How you can choose to use words that have caused so much pain?

Cycle of hate starts all over again

[Chorus 1]

Have we learned nothing? What will it take?

This levee of ignorance has got to break

We need to open our eyes, open our hearts

Ignorance is tearing us apart

[Verse 2]

I don't care who you are

Or who you know

You only reap what you sow

And the seeds of hate are beginning to grow

[Chorus 2]

Against race, sexual orientation, or creed

Hate is a virus that continues to breed

We need to open our eyes, open our hearts

Our blindness is tearing us apart

[Outro]

Open our eyes and open our hearts

Open our eyes and open our hearts

Open our eyes and open our hearts

Open our eyes and open our hearts
