I was listening to some songs by the band Hatebreed and two songs have kind of profoundly positive lyrics:

If you want to make a difference in the world it means
You have to be different from the world you see

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-OrUh4kNW4

If you think you should judge someone
Start with yourself
If you want to take control
Start with yourself
Something you see needs respect
Start with yourself
And if you want to change the world, you have to
(Start with yourself)

    If this vein of music is to your liking, you should check out some of August Burns Red’s Lyrics, they’re also typically very positive, and deal with a range of issues. A few that come to mind:

    • Fault Line (Song about how thankful they are to be able to be on stage, has one of my personal favorite lyrics “We all hurt, we all need, we all cry, we all bleed”)
    • Ghosts (a song about the perception of the less fortunate homeless and communities)
    • Beauty in Tragedy (song about dealing with the death of a very close friend/loved one)
    • Poor Millionaire (less positive, but is about the hypocrisy of proselytizing “mega church” pastors)
    • The Frost (a song about how being accepting of yourself, self-reflection, and being comfortable in your own skin)

    Their motto is angry music for happy people, and they really do kind of embody that HEAVY music with uplifting lyrics energy.
