Xavier Rudd - Better People Lyrics






People saving whales,
And giving your thanks to our seas,
My respect to the ones in the forest,
Standing up for our old trees

Them giving food to the hungry,
Giving hope to the needy,
Giving life to a baby,
Giving care for free,
'Cause there is freedom around us,
We have everything we need,
And I will care for you,
'Cause you care for me.
And we all have opinions,
Some of them get through,
But there's better people,
With more good to do.
Good to do

And what I have could be a message
Or just some words from my heart
My respect to the ones making changes
For other lives they'll give their own

Like giving food to the hungry,
Giving hope to the needy,
Giving life to a baby,
Giving care for free,
'Cause there is freedom around us,
We have everything we need,
And I will care for you,
'Cause you care for me.
And we all have opinions,
Some of them get through,
But there's better people,
With more good to do.
Good to Do

Well our world it keeps spinning round and round it goes
Human nature keeps spreading its disease
And our children keep growing up with what they know
From what we teach and what they see
And it's only a question of the time we have
And the lives that our children will lead
Cause they can only keep growing up with what they know
And what we teach, and what they see

Like giving food to the hungry,
Giving hope to the needy,
Giving life to a baby,
Giving care for free,
'Cause there is freedom around us,
We have everything we need,
And I will care for you,
'Cause you care for me.
We all have opinions,
Some of them get through,
But there's better people,
With more good to do.

    I've just discovered this man. His music is healing. Highly respect this man as an artist and a messenger. I hope, pray, and believe I will see Xavier Rudd live in concert. Haven't been to a concert since seeing Prince years ago. Thank you for getting me out again to live life out loud. I owe you my life.

    Made a 34 year old man bust into tears on the city bus lol! I want our country to feel this vibe (usa) praying we come together for the good of all. We have suffered longer enough and it's time to free our heart's andminds and come together!

    J.... L....

    true but everthing that a make and in this styl i like it:)

  13. R.... ....

    Xavier makes me a better person <3

  14. E.... S....

    great.. people citing warren buffet, bill gates and oprah winfrey as philanthropists. how sad, these people filled their own pockets thousands of times over before they ever even started thinking about caring for the world or anyone on it.
    it's ridiculous.. firemen or Gandhi might be considered in this fashion, not  these crooked earth consuming, inequality upholding douchebags.

  15. C.... ....

    saw him live at the house of blues. he is truly amazing live. oh just some extra bs- a woman jumped on stage and started dancing at the climax to fortune teller. like 5 guards rushed out and tried to take her away. he forcefully pushed them back and then half of the standing crowd jumped on stage and joined her. the stage was shaking so hard he fell out of his seat XD his concerts are awesome, i would highly recommend going to see him if hes in town

    C.... ....

    i saw him at oceanfest in devon last year. me and my freind arrived while he was playing and we loved it. planning to see him again. he is an amazing performer and i am amazed by his skill and talent. he is amazing

    C.... ....

    thats beautiful

  16. P.... S....

    what about it?

  17. D.... ....

    inspirational person, love his music, i wish to be as mellow as him and at peace just like him

  18. J.... N....

    i'll care for you and you can for me, giving care for free.

  19. Z.... ....

    I love his singing.

  20. K.... N....

    HUH? Bill gates? He has said he plans to help lower the worlds population (there's not many ways that can be done). But overall a good comment bro.

  21. d.... ....

    shame it gets cut off at the end.

  22. C.... N....

    this song goes out to bill gates, warren buffet, oprah...and other titans of philanthropy :)...the soldiers, professionals, social entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, an investor, a soldier, animal rights advocates, authors, pastors, reverends, missionaries and others who devote their time and means...changing the world for the better.

  23. k.... b....

    This needs more views! Hard to believe millions listen to Taylor Swift and Bieber sing again and again about breaking up or trucks or whatever, while good quaility music with inspiring lyrics such as this go by almost unnoticed by comparison.

  24. A.... R....

    Very inspirational chorus :)

  25. O.... ....

    your music makes me happy

  26. B.... S....

    Them giving food to the hungry
    giving hope to the needy
    giving life to a baby
    giving care for free
    there is freedom around us
    We have everything we need
    I will care for you
    because you care for me
    we all have opinions
    Some of them get through
    But there’s better people
    With more good to do.

    Perfect lyrics

  34. V.... ....

    Svensk ;)

  35. m.... c....

    Beaauuutiful.

  36. j.... ....

    So simple a child could understand it, yet so profoundly humble that it passes right over the heads of those who have been educated or spoiled past the point of human compassion and common sense. The message behind this music should be taught to all, especially ourselves and our children.

  37. s.... ....
