Following in the footsteps of his popular “Hands are Knockin’”, Kyle Pederson returns with another original containing a positive and uplifting message.

Before you say the thing you're thinking
to say, before you give the look you gave
yesterday, remember....he's got a
heartbeat.

They and us, her and him,
you and me, we and them,
remember...all have a heartbeat.

Red or blue, black or white,
no matter who, just like you...
all have a heartbeat.

If you would turn your head and take a
good look, if you could stand in her shoes
right where she stood, you'd
remember....she's got a heartbeat.

All creeds, all shapes, all sizes,
none of these is what defines us,
but what binds us...
is in our heartbeat.
