D-DU-UDU
I  don't know what  it's like  to be you,
I  don't know what  you have  to go through,
 But  I could try to see  the world  through your eyes,
Put  myself in your  shoes,  and empathize
 Emphasize?
 Noo, no, nooowoahoo empathize  not emphasize,  but empathize.
 Entropy?
 Noo, no, nooowoahoo empathy  not entropy,  but empathy.  Ohhhhh
Every  story has more  than one side, It's  not about what's wrong  or right,
Who's  to judge what's good  or bad, what  makes me laugh might make  you mad,
Let's  try to make  a deal, we'll  to each other and see how  the other feels,
 With empathy  with can understand, we  can solve our problems and make  amends
Everybody's  a got a different  point of view, how  would I feel if I  were you,
 Some people  think this, some people  think that, I'm  telling you empathy is
where  it's at.
We  can solve our problems by talking  and listening, instead  of judging we can
look  at things differently,
Write  to congress and get  them to see, instead  of fighting we can try  to use
 empathy not entropy  but empathy.
