R.E. - Let Love In

I've been a devil and I've been a saint
We've all been black, all been white
Mostly different shades of gray
We can't define ourselves this way, it's only paint
But what kind of stains do they create?
And does it build me, lesson learned
Make me stronger, will I earn an understanding
Or stay frozen, choose my fate
And despite the plight of people
I believe we have an equal but demanding obligation to change
No matter what the things we've done
We are only human
Let me start over just so I can restate, how
I hope you find someone to love you
And someone, for you to love too
I hope you find someone to love you
And someone, for you to love too (And let love be your light)
I've been a father and I've been a son
I've been abandoned and collected
Adopted and perfected
Built connections, had connections come undone, yeah
But what kind of friend did I become
One who supports you when you're weak
Encouragement, I speak
I'll be the best that I can be until I'm gone
Because despite the plight of people
I believe we have an equal but demanding obligation to change
It doesn't matter where you've been
We are only human
I'll say again, my wish for you is simply, yeah
I hope you find someone to love you
And someone, for you to love too
I hope you find someone to love you
And someone, for you to love too
Oh, and someone, for you to love too
Despite the plight of people
I believe we have an equal but demanding obligation to change
Let love in
Don't matter where you've been
Let love in
We are only human
Let love in
Back to the well again, back to the well again
And let love be your light
It will show you the way
And what you seek will always seek you back
So keep love in your gaze
Let love be your light
It will show you the way
Let love in
No matter where you've been
Let love in
We are only human
Let love in
Back to the well again, back to the well again
I hope you find someone to love you
And someone, for you to love too
I hope you find someone to love you
And someone, for you to love too
And let love be your light
It will show you the way
And someone, for you to love too
And let love be your light I hope you find someone who loves you
And someone, for you to love too
And let love be your light
It will show you the way
And someone, for you to love too
And let love be your light I hope you find someone who loves you
And someone, for you to love too
In the realm of music, this exquisite, human form of expression
Encompasses an abundance of styles, an array of genres
Consider this album
Is it the rhythmic cadence of hip-hop
The soulful resonance of blues
The infectious beats of pop
The electrifying energy of rock
The passionate rhythms of Latin
The spiritual harmony of gospel
No my friends
It transcends these categories
It is something altogether unique
Something I like to call R/E
In this unpredictable journey called life, there are but a few certainties we can hold onto
First, never stumble into the wrong house when you're running late for band practice
Second, if you can avoid it, never engage in a skirmish with the sound guy
And lastly, remember, above all else, to be good people
