Same Work (feat. The War And Treaty)

Met this guy a couple years ago

He was standing by the stage after one of my shows

Said he used to serve and now he's retired

And he's busy volunteering as a nurse on the side

I told him, "Thank you for your sacrifice

And your job means a little more than mine"

But he said

Isn't it the same work if we're tryna heal the same hurt?

Isn't love the whole point of it all?

All it takes to be a hero is a selfless heart and an open mind

Those five minutes really changed my life

Think about him when I'm on the road

'Cause I've been running into angels everywhere I go

It's the little things that go the longest way

You know, the ones that really make the world a better place

Isn't it the same work if we're tryna heal the same hurt?

Isn't love the whole point of it all?

All it takes to be a hero is a selfless heart and an open mind

Those five minutes really changed my life

Met this guy a couple years ago

It's funny now, I never got his name

But I won't forget the moment that I heard him say (Say)

Isn't it the same work (Same work), if we're tryna heal the same hurt?

Isn't love the whole point of it all? (Isn't love the point of it all?)

All it takes to be a hero is a selfless heart and an open mind (Hey, yeah)

Those five minutes really changed my life (Woah)

Those five minutes really changed my life
