Common Ground

"Common Ground"

(Genre: Soft rock / Pop acoustic)

I don’t know your journey, I’ve never walked your way

But I believe in kindness, in what we choose to say

We’re all just trying to live, to find where we belong

And shutting doors on people? That feels all kinds of wrong

It’s a world full of questions, not always black and white

But hearts are made for listening, not always for the fight

So let’s meet in the middle, where respect is still allowed

You be you, I’ll be me, we can still be proud

Of a world that’s learning how to see what’s true and sound

No shame, no hate, just love on common ground

I hear the voices speaking, I know some fears are real

A space to feel safe matters, that’s something we all feel

But tearing people down won’t lift the others high

We need some honest answers, not just battle cries

There’s hurt on every side, I won’t pretend to know

But maybe grace is something we could try to show

So let’s meet in the middle, where respect is still allowed

You be you, I’ll be me, we can still be proud

Of a world that’s learning how to see what’s true and sound

No shame, no hate, just love on common ground

It’s okay to not agree, and still be kind

It’s okay to talk and open up our minds

We won’t always get it right, but we can still try

'Cause every soul deserves to shine

So let’s meet in the middle, where respect is still allowed

You be you, I’ll be me, we can still be proud

Of a world that’s learning how to see what’s true and sound

No shame, no hate, just love on common ground
