“We Make Peace By Piece”

in honor of bridging understanding and bringing voice to the voiceless

“WE MAKE PEACE BY PIECE” notes some of the piece-by-piece complexities of peace-making and invites the listener to safely empathize with those they might disagree with or judge prematurely. Across political lines, cultural divides, family dysfunctions, and more, this song can help bridge the gap and help give voice to the voiceless❣️

Lyrics

Ooh

Do you want to see me

If I break it down I wonder can you ever know me

Who do I have to be in your eyes for my humanity

To rise up in your heart and give my soul a shot

To be seen to be to be to be seen

Can you see me

In all of my humanity

Where piece by piece

We make peace by piece

I want to see you

Past the hate that clouds my vision of the whole you

Into your heart that keeps the most cherished parts of you

Dreams and memories that reveal the depths of you

Perfection is not my expectation, please help me

Know you the whole you

Can I see you

Every cherished part of you

Where piece by piece

We make peace by piece

In a safe space, we can clear our eyes

By tearing down these walls we’ve built deep down inside

Block by block, we need not find our safety in a house of lies

Let's stop forsaking our children's future through our stubborn pride

Let's learn to value to forgive more than how we collide

I want to start by loving the part of you that hears my cry

I want your heart to feel it has a cherished home in mine

The more we care the more we find a way to live side-by-side

Scream if you believe

In this life we can achieve

Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray

Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out

Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray

Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out

Can I hear you say, can I hear us pray

Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out

Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta let it out

Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-aoo

Ra-da-da-un-day-rite-dow daw-oh-hey

La-da-dun-day

(Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-aoo)

La-dun-day, da-un-da-da-doo-day da-da-doo-day

(Ra-da-da-un-day-rite-dow daw-oh-hey)

Can we be us

The very best of us

Where piece by piece

We make peace by piece

We are each other's mirror when we empathize

Our differences refract the same light we can shine

Divine is our right to bring hope to our children's eyes

Can we be us

The very best of us

Where piece by piece

We make peace by piece
