People Ain’t Our People No More (Remix)

[Verse 1] Front porch swing rust on the chain Phone in my hand but it don’t ring the same Used to know every truck on this dirt road Now it’s tinted glass and doors that stay closed [Chorus] People ain’t our people no more No love, no kindness like we had before No laughter through the screen door no kids on the floor No helping the neighbor when the rain starts to pour Tell me how’d this world get so cold at the core When our people ain’t our people no more [Verse 2] Old man Joe used to wave from his chair Now that house is empty paint peeling off there We used to share sugar and stories till two Now we share headlines we swear are the truth [Chorus] People ain’t our people no more No love, no kindness like we had before No lending a hand when your back’s getting sore No forming a plan just locking the door Tell me how’d this world get so cold at the core When our people ain’t our people no more [Bridge] Was it one small lie or a million tiny cuts Did we trade each other’s names for numbers on our stuff If we’re all standing lonely on our own front steps Who’s gonna catch us when the sun finally sets (oh) [Chorus] People ain’t our people no more No love, no kindness like we had before No laughter in the kitchen like the nights we adore No helping the neighbor just keeping the score Tell me how’d this world get to needing a war Just to feel something down deep in the core People ain’t our people no more (our people ain’t our people) People ain’t our people no more
