Aaron Cole - Starts With Me Live Lyrics

[Interlude: TobyMac]
Listen
Lookin' out over this audience tonight, I just gotta tell you
Denver, you look beautiful in all your diversity tonight
I've always believed that there's richness in diversity
I've always believed that we're better together than separated
And I've always believed that we, the believers, we should be leading the way in what real love looks like
I gotta be honest with you
Sometimes I get online, I turn the news on the television
Man, sometimes I just gotta shut it off
'Cause it makes me…
It makes me start believin' that we can't make it together
But then I look up here on this stage and I see these people that I've travelled with, been runnin' with for 15 years
And look, all of us, different upbringings, different colors of skin
Listen, if we could live together and make it together on a tour bus, surely we could make it in a city or a state or a town or a nation
Truth is, there's no law the government can pass that brings us together
A song can't bring us together
Comin' together comes down to you and me

[Intro: Martin Luther King Jr.]
One day
This nation will rise up
Rise up

[Verse 1: TobyMac]
There's a million reasons to hesitate
With a history that's filled with hate
Have we ever been United States? I wonder (Oh, oh, oh)
So who can blame us for the doubt?
Forgive me if I think out loud
But when justice just won't come around, you wonder (Oh, oh, oh)
[Pre-Chorus: TobyMac, Gabriel Patillo, TobyMac & Gabriel Patillo, Terrian]
I was born with two dirty hands (Ooh-ooh)
Somethin' my daddy didn't understand
Somethin' his daddy didn't understand (Ooh-ooh)
So it starts with me
I was raised with distrust in my heart (Ooh-ooh)
Mama told me we're worlds apart
Her mama told her don't even bother (Ooh-ooh)
So it starts with me

[Chorus: TobyMac & Gabriel Patillo, TobyMac]
'Cause we can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that (Oh, oh, oh)
Let's try to fix the things that's been broke down
We can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that
And it starts with me
Ladies and gentlemen (Ladies and gentlemen), Mr. Aaron Cole (Mr. Aaron Cole)

[Verse 2: Aaron Cole & Terrian]
With a heavy road in front of us
And a system that has lost our trust
Can we ever find the strength to rise from ashes? (Ashes) (Oh, oh, oh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
In lookin' at the heart of it
The healing really can't begin
Without confession and forgiveness and compassion (—passion) (Oh, oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus: TobyMac, Aaron Cole, Aaron Cole & Gabriel Patillo, Terrian]
I was born with two dirty hands (Ooh-ooh)
Somethin' my daddy didn't understand
Somethin' his daddy didn't understand (Ooh-ooh)
So it starts with me
And I was raised with distrust in my heart (Ooh-ooh)
Mama told me we're worlds apart
Her mama told her don't even bother (Ooh-ooh)
So it starts with me
[Chorus: TobyMac & Aaron Cole, TobyMac, Choir]
'Cause we can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that (I know that) (Oh, oh, oh)
Let's try to fix the things that's been broke down
We can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that (I know that)
And it starts with me (Freedom)
We can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that (Oh, oh, oh)
Let's try to fix the things that's been broke down
We can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that (I know that)
And it starts with me (Freedom)

[Bridge: TobyMac, Aaron Cole, TobyMac, Aaron Cole & Gabriel Patillo, Gabriel Patillo & Choir]
Can you feel it in your heart tonight? (Freedom)
Love is gonna move the needle (Freedom)
I can feel it in my heart tonight (Freedom)
Can you feel it in your heart tonight? (Freedom)
Love is gonna move the needle (Freedom)
I can feel it in my heart tonight (Freedom)
Oh, yeah
Can you feel it in your heart tonight? (Feel it in my heart tonight)
Love is gonna move the needle (Love is gonna move the needle)
I can feel it in my heart tonight, yeah (I can feel it in my heart tonight)

[Breakdown: TobyMac & Aaron Cole]
I said, I need you, and you need me
One more step, we're almost free
Almost free, almost free
Yeah, I need you, and you need me
Father, give us eyes to see
Hey, ayy, yeah, give us eyes to see
[Outro: TobyMac, Aaron Cole, TobyMac & Aaron Cole, Martin Luther King Jr.]
'Cause we can be free, yeah
And we can be free, whoa-oh-oh
We can be free, yeah, yeah, I know that
And it starts with me
We can be free, yeah
Yeah, ayy, yeah, take it
We can be free, yeah, I know that
And it starts with me (Me, me)
Now is the time (Now is the time, now is the time)
Denver, give it up for Aaron Cole
