[Verse 1]
I've been thinking about today’s war
Too much blood on the floor
We are mankind, hear me say
Not made to break this way
I want more than holding on
I want right where we belong
[Pre-Chorus]
So lift me up
Don't let it harden
One more breath
One more pardon
[Chorus]
Man be kind
Man be kind
Heal the world, heal the world
Man be kind
(Man be kind)
Wholeness and unity
Right here in me
[Verse 2]
I see fists where open hands should be
I see fear in the family
But I know we can turn
I know we can learn
From the ash and the shouting
To the bond we're about to build
[Pre-Chorus]
So lift me up
Don't let it harden
One more breath
One more pardon
[Chorus]
Man be kind
Man be kind
Heal the world, heal the world
Man be kind
(Man be kind)
Wholeness and unity
Right here in me
[Bridge]
If we fall, we fall together
If we rise, we rise forever
Say it loud
Say it now
Mankind can change somehow
[Final Chorus]
Man be kind
Man be kind
Heal the world, heal the world
Man be kind
(Man be kind)
Wholeness and unity
Right here in me
