The Best In Us letra

Watching the curve of the earth as it turns and we're ringside
Witnessing history all in a blink of a lifetime
See how the story repeats if we're powerless to fight apathy
How can we expect our children to change the world?

We were there when the curtain was ready to fall
And Reagan told Gorbachev to take down that wall
And the man on the Moon took that first step for all
Times like these bring out the best in us
We were there in the days when the Woodstock Nation
Turned music and mud into a celebration
United as one in a place called trust
Times like these bring out the best in us

Watching the arc of the battle of hearts and we're front row
Ego and greed taking more than we need, it's a side show
If we can't learn from the past, we’ll make those mistakes again and again
How can we expect our grandchildren to lead the way?

We were there, we were there when the COVID disease
Drove us into our shelters and down to our knees
When those at the top were deaf to our pleas
Dark days like these bring out the best in us

We pass the baton to the next arm out in this relay race we run
We’re counting on you to carry the torch when at last your time has come

You'll be there, you'll be there to do it your way
It’s your generation, it’s your first day
Tell the ones in charge, enough is enough
Times like these bring out the best in us
You’ll learn to stand proud
You’ll be there when you’re free
All around the Lady of Liberty
This is a test, it’s your legacy
Dark days like these bring out the best
Good times like these bring out the best
Times like these bring out the best in us
