India.arie - Gift Of Acceptance lyrics

Some believe it's rigt to say Jesus when you pray, Some believe Mahommed, Allah, or Buddah are the way. Instead of a God or pantheon of gods up in the sky, I'll honour your choices and you can honour mine. Whether you are red, black, yellow, brown or white, A man with a husband or a woman with a wife, We can debate till the end of time who's wrong and who is right, Or I can honour your choices and you can honour mine. --Chorus-- We all want the same things from life, We want peace, love and prosperity. But can we give up our need to be right? Give the world a present, give the gift of your acceptance. Give the world a present, give the gift of your acceptance. Some believe that God's a him and some say he's a her. Does God live here in our hearts or out in the universe? Ghandi was a Hindu, Martin Luther King a Christian, Regardless of religion they knew love was the mission. --Chorus-- We all want the same things from life, We want peace, love and prosperity. But can we give up our need to be right? Give the world a present, give the gift of your acceptance. Give the world a present, give the gift of your acceptance. We can debate to the end of time who's wrong and who is right, Or I can honour your choices and you can honour mine. They call you Israeli and they call me an American, I look at you and I don't see a country, I just see my friend, I pray we're in each other's lives for a long, long time Because I honour your choices and you honour mine. --Chorus-- We all want the same things from life, We want peace, love and prosperity. But can we give up our need to be right? Give the world a present, give the gift of your acceptance. Give the world a present, give the gift of your acceptance.
