[Intro] Before you name me wrong, Come sit where I have been. [Verse 1] You saw the choice I made that day, Not all the miles that led that way. You heard one sentence, drew a line; I missed your hurt, you missed mine. So hold the verdict, ask me why. I’ll make some room; you tell me yours. We don’t have to trade our truth To open up another door. [Pre-Chorus] Take one breath, let the first thought pass. Look past the label, look at the face. [Chorus] Stand up, reach out, make a little room! Try to see the world from somebody else’s shoes! We can disagree and still refuse To shame a heart for seeing a different view. Ask one more question, hear one more truth— We get stronger when we make room! [Verse 2] Your road was built on different ground; My map won’t tell me what you found. I won’t pretend I know your pain, But I can stay and hear your name. You get a chance to tell me how; I get a chance to listen now. No cheap applause for being right— Just honest effort, side by side. [Pre-Chorus] Take one breath, let the first thought pass. Look past the label, look at the face. [Chorus] Stand up, reach out, make a little room! Try to see the world from somebody else’s shoes! We can disagree and still refuse To shame a heart for seeing a different view. Ask one more question, hear one more truth— We get stronger when we make room! [Bridge] Maybe you’re carrying what I can’t see. Maybe my certainty keeps me from hearing. I don’t need to say that every road is mine; I can meet you here and give your words their time. [Build] No more turning people into targets. No more making shame our answer. Curiosity takes courage— Bring it on, bring it on! [Final Chorus] Stand up, reach out, make a little room! Try to see the world from somebody else’s shoes! We can disagree and still refuse To shame a heart for seeing a different view. Ask one more question, hear one more truth— We get stronger when we make room! [Final Refrain] Hear them out! Make room! Hold your ground! Make room! Different eyes, same human worth— Make room, make room! [Outro] Before you name me wrong, Come sit where I have been.
