lyrics

Every day you see somebody’s face
But you can’t always trace
The steps they take

Their lives behind the lines
Aren’t what you surmise
You’d be surprised

Black, the attitude of slack,
The constant attack,
Always on your back -

It’s all just a shadowed mask
Don’t get him back
Can’t you track
This simple fact
You’ve got to realize?

People are people,
And they wanna be
Treated like people,
And they wanna be
Known as people,
Individualistically

People are people,
And they wanna be
Greeted like people,
And they wanna be
Loved as people,
Without partiality

So you step up to the plate
You state your name
And ask the same

Found out he’s a martial arts machine
With a hefty dream
To meet the queen

Time and time again he’s tried
But he spent his last dime
On a one-way flight

We all have dreams somewhere deep inside
It’s all in stride
With livin’ our lives
I think it’s time
You fin’lly realize…

People are people,
And they wanna be
Treated like people,
And they wanna be
Known as people,
Individualistically

People are people,
And they wanna be
Greeted like people,
And they wanna be
Loved as people,
Without partiality

People… are people
People… a-a a-a a-a-are people
People… a-a-a-a a-a-are people
People… bee-dah buh-dah buh-dih dih-diddlium-bum

People… a-a-a a-a-are people
God made them to live as people
And He wants us to treat ‘em like people
‘Cause don’t you know:

We were made in the image of God,
Though we’re flawed
By sin through the fall
It affected us all

See, Adam and Eve
Ate of the tree
Eve was deceived
By Satan’s scheme

But God came to save,
Made the way
To take our chains,
Release us from the pain
That we feel ev’ry day

He sent His Son
Like a dove
From above
Showering His love
By the power of His blood

As if that wasn’t enough
He sets our hearts free
So we can see
Who we were meant to be

We were meant to be His
Receive His gift
And fin’lly be loved as people!

People are people,
And they wanna be
Treated like people,
And they wanna be
Known as people,
Individualistically

People are people,
And they wanna be
Greeted like people,
And they wanna be
Loved as people,
Without partiality

The way it was meant to be!
