Bryan, Luke - Most People Are Good Lyrics






I believe kids oughta stay kids as long as they can
Turn off the screen, go climb a tree, get dirt on their hands
I believe we gotta forgive and make amends
Cause nobody gets a second chance to make new old friends
I believe in working hard for what you've got
Even if it don't add up to a hell of a lot

I believe most people are good
And most Mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights look better under neon or stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Ain't nothing you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good

I believe them streets of gold are worth the work
But I'd still wanna go even if they were paved in dirt
I believe that youth is spent well on the young
'Cause wisdom in your teens would be a lot less fun
I believe if you just go by the nightly news
Your faith in all mankind would be the first thing you lose

I believe most people are good
And most Mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights look better under neon or stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Ain't nothing you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good

I believe that days go slow and years go fast
And every breath's a gift, the first one to the last

I believe most people are good
And most Mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights look better under neon or stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Ain't nothing you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good

I believe most people are good
I believe most people are good

    Yes, I very much agree with that believe.

  16. V.... C....

    To the little girls that lost their lives thru "friends"..

  17. I.... �....

    Luke piękne, pozdrawiam.

  18. F.... D....

    Most white people
    Lol

  19. D.... R....

    I love this song and totally agree with the sentiment. When we lose faith in humankind, we have no more reason to try to make things better. When we see how much good there already is in each of us, and the wonderful actions many are taking in the world, it inspires us to do our part. Thanks for this song!

  20. M.... A....

    If everyone lived these lyrics life would be easier...

    M.... A....

    Yes it sure would, but we have too many dishonest people constantly cheating, taking advantage of others, and starting fights to keep people from focusing on what they're doing and uniting against them. They're called the elite for whatever reason in our society.

  21. A.... L....

    The Bible actually says most people are not good. Matthew 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

    1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

    Galatians 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

    Ephesians 5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

    A.... L....

    Those are human rules. Our creator loves all of us equally. Yshua taught us the we will be judgedby the way we judge others. It's not our job to judge others or tell them how to live. It's our job to love them.

  22. n.... ....

    This song makes me tear up

  23. A.... R....

    Message in that super great song .....is super ....thanks Luke ....always great country music /songs

  25. I.... N....

    Rainbowfarmemostan

  26. L.... G....

    Love this!

  27. J.... S....

    Cute song. Naive, but cute. It's easy to believe most people are good when you live a cush life... believing that most people are good is a luxury of those who are sheltered.

    J.... S....

    I'm not sheltered Andi know that most people are good. I was raised in the poorest white neighborhood in my town, yeah back in the seventies our neighborhoods were segregated. I lived in the neighborhood where the wealthier pedophiles and perverts would come try to pick up kids. I lived in the neighborhood where people who didn't love there would run red lights for fear that we'd steal their tires before the light changed. I'm not kidding. I saw some of the most horrible things a child could see. At 4 years old I walked in on a murder. I saw that man shot and killed. I know we humans are capable of. Most of us are good.

  28. E.... M....

    I'm not even a country music person but this song is adorable

    thank you, random music in a Walgreen's, for introducing me to it

  29. B.... W....

    Nobody forgives anymore in this day of age. Everybody deserves a chance for their wrong doing or decision.

  30. N.... P....

    I believe most people are dirtbags. Just look in the mirror for your proof. Of course, who’d admit to that? It’s always the other guy whose got the problem. I mean, how’s it my fault I was up late watching Netflix and overslept so now I’m late for work, so I have to cut you off in my car to make up time? I got this thing called a job. Also, go ahead and pretend you’re busy on you iPhone so you don’t have to have any human interaction with the person next to you. I certainly think you’re a good person for doing that all of the time. I would never judge you for that.

  31. K.... P....

    They need to have luke Bryan at the superbowl instead of shitty pop people contry rocks thank you luke

  32. N.... H....

    most people suk

  33. N.... H....

  35. k.... p....

    I believe that everyone in Venice Florida needs to listen to this song.. There are not that many good people here anymore.

  36. N.... P....

    Kudos to the Songwriters- Josh Kear, Ed Hill and David Frazier

  37. S.... C....

  49. G.... D....

    HELLO LUKE BRYAN

  50. k.... k....

    We need to stop being rude and treat people great

  51. b.... ....

    I believe that most people are good, but they can be good in their own respective lands of racial majority without flooding others and altering the racial demographics of others to the extent that violations to the Genocide Convention should be invoked for review.

    b.... ....

    brianwesley28 Why you gotta throw all that in?

    b.... ....

    @Joe Whitehead Nick Griffin should explain it well enough. If not, I'll tell you some of the nightmare stories some of my white South African and Zimbabwean friends have shared with me.

    Nick Griffin blasts EU over white genocide

  52. B.... D....

    I heard this on the radio today for the first time and had to find out who sang this. Can't stop listening. Besides being timeless even though it's new, this is what country should be like: a great melody that catches you from the beginning and fantastic lyrics.

  53. g.... ....

    Who loves Luke bryan comient if you like Kane brown

  54. A.... K....

    I just want to say this world is beautiful ❤

  55. A.... T....

  61. P.... C....

    CONGRATULATIONS!

  62. p.... b....

    Every beraeth is a gift first one to the last yes brother

  63. R.... J....

    The part where he says you love who you love and never be ashamed of.

    I can relate because my friends got mad at me for dating this one girl.

  64. A.... K....

    Just listened to this after having a really bad day and it honestly helped thank you

  65. R.... E....

    I love that finally there is not only an acceptance that people may be gay, but also an embrace of it. Coming from a country chart topper. All this is the spirit we should embolden and stand together. Fight for fair wages, healthcare we can all get. And can I lastly say, fuck the Russian/Iranian/Chinese etc bots that are having a hay day with each us us tearing each other apart.

  66. b.... j....

    This is one of the dumbest songs I've heard right up there with "she don't know she's beautiful". What a sellout.

  67. S.... M....

    I love this song as a pansexual 13 yr old at the moment and when i heard the line "you love who you love aint nothing you shold ever be ashamed of" i was in the car with people i still have yet to come out to but not everyone realizes what those lyrics mean its nice to see that the world is evolving

  68. A.... M....

    Beautiful song! Friday under the stars & Shabbat lights!

  69. W.... i....

    Do you approve bis? Cause i saw two girls making a heart =P

  70. k.... p....

    See you tonight in Tampa FL...

  71. J.... L....

    So true i love this song it makes me cry i would love to meet him or even say a word to hin he is the sweetest man i have ever met he is my role model and i want to walk in the steps he paves for man kind

  72. C.... I....

    Awsome song he wrote.
    1:50 if you go by the nightly news your faith in all mankind will be the first thing you lose,truthfully to me i lost faith in man kind a long time ago and im glad I did.because there is no hope left for mankind or the pathetic human race.

  73. C.... O....

    That’s right Luke! I’m in love with my sister and there ain’t nothing to be ashamed of!

  74. F.... ....

    The rejection of realistic scenarios for politically correct scenes is strong in this video.

    F.... ....

    Fierysaint1 This comment is what happens when an adult who takes selfies tries to “own the libs”. I just want to pinch your little cheeks and pat you on the head for the effort. Better luck next time big guy. You just gotta work harder.

    F.... ....

    @C Hancock Say anything you want about me. Fact is those are cringy unrealistic politically correct scenes.

  75. W.... s....

    So sad but happy

  76. T.... D....

    This song needs to he heard more often all over the world.

  77. T.... M....

    Your songs touch my 💜

  78. s.... b....

  82. J.... J....

    Wow! This is some kind of terrible!

  83. J.... M....

    I believe most people are good , wisdom in your teens is not fun , I believe you love who you love and it’s nothing to be ashamed of ❤️

  84. C.... K....

    This gives me goose bumps you need to see the world in a whole new we are not on this world long enough to be good to everyone we need to get along and be kind

  85. m.... a....

    Love love love this

  86. B.... ....

    Love the meaning behind the song beautiful 💖

  87. J.... ....

    Like mentioned in the song and comments, all the news talks about is bad stuff, and it just brings people down, there is a lot more good in the world than bad, and it just doesn’t get talked about, its truly sad. Cause if they do a news cast all about the good things, sure would make feel a lot better about things.

  88. J.... ....

    Absolutely one of my favorite songs, and i honestly dont like the rest of his music

  89. N.... T....

    I'm not a country fan, but "I believe you should love who you love who you love, ain't nothin' you should ever be ashamed of" are amazing lyrics

  90. c.... k....

    If this is too long to read, there is a small section at the end that summarizes everything.

    This is my lyric by lyric analysis of this song after seeing that a lot of people, especially in the top comment chains of this video, don't seem to get it. I only explain the chorus and the repeating phrase "I believe most people are good" once, because reading that over and over again would get old.


    "I believe kids oughta stay kids as long as they can. Turn off the screen, go climb a tree, get dirt on their hands"
    This verse explains how kids should keep their innocence for as long as possible.

    "I believe we gotta forgive and make amends, 'cause nobody gets a second chance to make new old friends"
    This line corresponds with the lines above. We don't have a second chance to make friends that we've known for most of our lives, so we need to make them while we can.

    "I believe in working hard for what you've got, even if it don't add up to a hell of a lot"
    Working hard even if it doesn't add up to a lot doesn't necessarily mean the work is fruitless. If you can get enough money to get you and your family a decent life then nothing matters except for the time you spend with them and others. Rich people aren't necessarily happy people.

    "I believe most people are good." This line reoccurs throughout the song, spreading hope.

    "And most mommas oughta qualify for sainthood"
    This might not mean your mother in general, some parents can be pretty trashy, but most mothers love their children a lot, even if it doesn't seem like it.

    "I believe most Friday nights look better under neon or stadium lights"
    Whether spending time in a bar, playing a game or watching a game in the stadium, or doing something else with friends and family, you should still have fun whenever you can.

    "I believe you love who you love there ain't nothin' you should ever be ashamed of"
    This line can be interpreted in any way. Interracial relationships, LGBTQ+ relationships, relationships between people of different religions... it DOES NOT justify rape, pedophiles, or zoophiles (people that think bestiality is okay and practice it). If both people in the relationship are of age and can clearly consent to marriage and later to sex then it's okay.

    "I believe them streets of gold are worth the work"
    He's talking about Heaven here, the Bible gives a lot of rules and guidelines to help us get There and it seems like a lot of work to walk with Him by your side. God loves everyone and Jesus died for our sins so that we could meet our true Father, we just have to have a relationship with Them.

    "But I still wanna go even if they were paved in dirt"
    Again, because God loves us and being in His Kingdom would be an honor altogether.

    "I believe that youth is spent well on the young 'cause wisdom in your teens would be a lot less fun"
    As a teen myself, I can't really say much on this line, but I guess that being wise takes away from childhood and makes everyone around you look carefree, reckless, and dumb.

    "I believe if you just go by the nightly news your faith in all mankind would be the first thing you lose"
    The news highlights all the bad things that are happening and barely shows the bright sides of stories. It's sad how this happens.

    ~Chorus~

    "I believe that days go slow and years go fast"
    Days go by too slowly when you're working and not having fun. Years go by quickly because of the days where you do have fun.

    "And every breath's a gift, the first one to the last"
    Life is a gift, we should enjoy it while we can. This song helps lift spirits and tries to get people to see that we need to enjoy every day to the fullest and live without strife for one another.

    TLDR; Kids should stay innocent, you don't have a second chance to make friends you've known all your life, work hard so that your family can be comfortable and happy even if it isn't much, not all mothers deserve sainthood but a lot of them do, have fun in life, love is love, Heaven is worth the work, wisdom takes away from childhood, the news is trashy, live every day to the fullest because it is precious.

    This is where I'll end my analysis. Thank you for reading if you did, even if you just read the end here.

    Edit: added a few lyrics that I originally missed/roped in with other lyrics.
