"Better Way" lyrics - BEN HARPER

I'm a living sunset
Lightning in my bones
Push me to the edge
But my will is stone

[Chorus:]
'Cause I believe in a better way

Fools will be fools
And wise will be wise
But I will look this world
Straight in the eyes

[Chorus:]
'Cause I believe there's a better way
I believe in a better way

What good is a man
Who won't take a stand?
What good is a cynic
With no better plan?

[Chorus:]
I believe in a better way
I believe in a better way

[Instrumental break]

Hope these words feel pleasant
As they rest upon your ears...

Reality is sharp
It cuts at me like a knife
Everyone I know
Is in the fight of their life

[Chorus:]
And I believe there's a better way

Take your face out of your hands
And clear your eyes
You have a right to your dreams
And don't be denied

[Chorus:]
I believe in a better way
