Billy Porter feat. India.Arie - Carefully Taught Lyrics

Lyrics Carefully Taught - India.Arie , Billy Porter



Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love?...
You′ve got to be carefully taught
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love?...
You've got to be taught to hate and fear
You′ve got to be taught from year to year
It's got to be drummed in your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love?...
You′ve got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made
And people whose skin is a different shade
You′ve got to be carefully taught
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love?...
You've got to be taught before it′s too late
Before you are six or seven or eight
To hate all the people your relatives hate
You've got to be carefully taught
You′ve got to be carefully...
Taught
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love somebody?
Do you have the courage to love?...
You've got to be taught before it′s too late
Before you are six or seven or eight
To hate all the people your relatives hate
You've got to be carefully taught
You've got to be carefully...
Taught
It don′t just happen, no
You learn from the people around you
Yeah
You′ve got to be taught to hate
(Can you give the gift to your acceptance?)
You've got to be taught to fear
(Know the love is not a afterthought, love is an action)
(Can you walk the true truth of your compassion?)
