make it right
Top-down doesn't cut it
Will I love you, can I love you
Top-down doesn't cut it
Can I love you at all
Top-down never cut it
Like a brother, like a sister
Top-down never cut it
Can I love you at all
So she asked was I willing to pay
Not to punish but heal from this pain
Be the truth and live up to my name
I said go ahead, make me human
Make it right, make it right
Wake up, woman, mirror
Say I love you, can I love you
Wake up, woman, mirror
Liberation for all
Wake up, woman, mirror
Never man enough, never man enough
Top-down, never led to
Liberation for all
Top-down doesn't cut it
Will I love you, can I love you
Top-down doesn't cut it
Can I love you at all
In my voice you can hear what I owe
It's a debt from a long time ago
Poisons all of the seeds that I sow
So go ahead make me human
Make it right, make it right, make it right, make it right
He cried out, well how much would it take
There's no end to a history I can't shake
Was he willing for his children's sake
To look ahead as a human, and make it right
