Twitter Song Video (MV)

Rhymer/Educator come on
We could (We could, we could)
We could work together like
Salt and vinegar
Shampoo and conditioner
Mani, pedi
Wilma, Betty
Angel food and confetti
But rather 280
These character limitations, show limits in our character
Too many frustrations
How we crave understanding but we lack the patience
I guess we fake patrons
We activists for the hate crimes
But we espouse all the hate lines
We campaign for regulations to keep us more safe but
Then turn around and show hate on our own Twitter page
We gotta be
(Whoa) We've got to be better than that (Be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be)
(Whoa) better than that (Be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be)
We've gotta be better, better, better
Better than that (We've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be)
We've gotta be better, better, better
Better than that (We've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be)
Still we there talking that hate though
Why we be actin' so fake though
Should be united we ain't whoa
We just assigning that blame (Oh, oh)
Action is not the same thing as being reactive
It's not as impactive
Opinions are not the same thing as an action
So stop with the inaction
I can lift you and you can lift me without you as part of my faction
So get off the screen eventually
We've got to start the unmasking
I'm on that messaging-ish
You on my messaging list
Let's let intelligence in and realize the blessing (The blessing) this messaging is
People are harder to hate up close
We've got to self-elevate, expose
Places where we can relate
Stop trying to deflate and imitate miracles
Bright as the sun, hey we marigolds
Emulate love like we merry souls
I want my mediums full of encouragement
Focused on nourishment
So it goes (Oh)
All I see trending is outrage
Manufactured, some well-meaning
You always be at the protest homie
But where you at when your neighbor needs feeding
Forget your political leanings
The court of opinion proceeding
We should take note that we're all human beings
And that's what the world's needing
(Whoa) We've got to be better than that (Be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be)
(Whoa) better than that (Be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be, be)
We've gotta be better, better, better
Better than that (We've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be)
We've gotta be better, better, better
Better than that (We've gotta be, we've gotta be, we've gotta be
We've gotta be one
We've gotta be one
