I'm just the same as you
I could be the same age too
Do the same music you do
Everyday

No matter what separates us
The same stars we see at night
No matter what suffers against us
Still gonna have dream burning right

I believe we fear what we don't know,
we can be our own enemy
But if we concord and
If you took my hand
I see a girl you see a man

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they won't
Open your eyes we're all the same
We won't be scared
So let's sing together now
Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

Oh oh … na na na na

I see the smoking light
That complicates a simple life
I'm here and you are there
Miles away

All you gotta do is believe
That anything you want you can reach
There's no limit to what we could be
So open your mind
And set yourself free

I believe we fear what we don't know,
we can be our own enemy
But if we concord and
If you took my hand
I see a girl you see a man

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they won't
Open your eyes we're all the same
We won't be scared
So let's sing together now
Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

And in this dream I have at night
That I don't understand the world at all
You might be right but it seems to me
That we've come to fight to far

Cause I believe that fears
I try to save our souls
And hardest time will come
And all this pain will go
So try to understand
The precious things I've said
Every woman every man

Oh oh … na na na na

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they won't
Open your eyes we're all the same
We won't be scared
So let's sing together now
Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

Everybody has the same dream
A dream in their heart
Get a chance to make a life
Love somebody they won't
Open your eyes we're all the same
We won't be scared
So let's sing together now
Na na na na
In this Universal Prayer

Oh oh … na na na na

I've been thinkin' 'bout us
(and the things we've been through)
It's time we get serious
(you know I would like to)
But we need to work out these issues
Before they get out of hand

(oh Yeah) Oh yeah
I know we've been fussing and arguing
But the fact is unity is a good thing
It took a while for me but now I see
Though some will love you, that same will hate you
Sometimes I'll scream and curse you out
Just try to chill and ride it out
But it's official when I'm against you
Whether it's wrong or it's right
I would rather be by your side (x4)

I've been lookin' at our history
Things ain't changin' but they need to be
Where do we start
Seems like it's gone too far
Can't we just try to work it out

(oh yeah) Oh yeah
I know we've been fussing and arguing
But the truth is unity is a good thing
It took some time for me but now I see
Though some will love you, that same will hate you
Sometimes I'll scream and curse you out
So try to chill and ride it out
But it's official when I'm against you
Whether it's wrong or it's right
I would rather be by your side (x4)

I'm so sorry I treated you so bad (so bad)
But I did realize what a friend I had (oh no)
I regret the things I did and you can't believe that
I apologize
Wish I could take it back

Though some will love you (kiley:sometimes I loved you), that same will hate you
Sometimes I'll scream and curse you out
So try to chill and ride it out
But it's official when I'm against you (oh)
Whether it's wrong or it's right
I would rather be by your side
I would rather be by your side (by your side, yeah)
I would rather be by your side (by your side)
I would rather be by your side (side)
I would rather be by your side (oh)
I would rather be by your side (oooh)
I would rather be by your side
I would rather be by your side
