about

'Kinder'is a song that urges us all as humanity to be kinder to each other. It’s about realising that we all go through hard times, trauma, loss and trying times in our lives but don’t always reveal that to others.

It’s also about lending a helping hand to those less fortunate, being the love they need, being less selfish and more grateful.

“I feel this song is needed right now. There are people out there doing some very hurtful things to others whether strangers, family or friends.
Many are suffering unnecessarily”.

Kinder is the first single off the upcoming album, ‘Making Memories’. I hope you're gonna love this song as I do.

lyrics

KINDER (BE THE LOVE)
©M. Steele

Everybody’s hurting
Everybody’s bleeding
Everybody’s feeling pain at some time
So be a little kinder
Hug a little harder
Reach out and share a smile

Chorus 1:
Don’t be so fast to judge or quick to criticise
Cause what’s ugly can be beautiful
In someone else’s eyes
Just be a little kinder
Smile a little longer
And be the love they need (be the love they need)

So check in on a neighbour
Call upon an old friend
Maybe they need to see a kind face
Have a conversation
Share a cup of coffee
You may just be someone’s saving grace

Chorus 1:
Don’t be so fast to judge or quick to criticise
Cause what’s ugly can be beautiful
In someone else’s eyes
Just be a little kinder (kinder)
Smile a little longer (longer)
And be the love they need (be the love they need)

Everyone has secrets
Everyone has regrets
We all have a hidden past
Nobody is perfect
Nobody is worthless
Have a heart and empathise

Chorus 2:
Don’t be so fast to judge or quick to criticise
You don’t know the circumstance
That led to their demise
Just be a little kinder (kinder)
Smile a little longer (longer)
And be the love they need

Just be a little kinder (kinder)
Hug a little harder (harder)
And be the love they need

Be the love they need
Be the love they need
Be the love they need
Just be the love they need
