Bend the Curve

[Verse 1]
A lot of people just trying to breathe
Others hesitating, trying to decide
I don't wanna be caught asleep
The world's waking if you open your eyes

Everybody's got a hand on the wheel
Everybody's got a hand in the sky
The arc of the moral universe
Needs us to point it just right

[Chorus]
So bend the curve
Bend it down to the ground
Bend it down toward justice
What we all deserve
Bend the curve
Bend it down to the ground
Bend it down for freedom
Let's get to work

[PostChorus]
Bend the curvе
Bend the curve

[Verse 2]
This land is our land
Why'rе we letting it burn to ashes?
This sea is our life
Don't let it go sleepin' with the fishes

This world is talking to us
Are we gonna have sense to listen?
Might have start making a fuss
Plant a seed and come to fruition

[Chorus]
So bend the curve
Bend it down to the ground
Take it down to the Earth
'Cause she needs us now
Bend the curve
Bend it down for science
You know, it's just common sense
For what's going 'round

[PostChorus]
Bend the curve
Bend the curve
Bend the curve
Bend the curve

[Bridge]
All right
There's people workin' dawn to dusk
But they can't trust that it's enough
To have a decent life
There's people in an army tower
Clingin' to power, scared of the hour
When we unify
And sanctify
Just one big ball
Just one big life

[Outro]
Bend the curve
Whooaa, yeah

Bend the curve
Take it down like Jesus
Take it down like MLK
Let's get to work

Bend the curve
Take it down like Gandhi
Take it down like Thích Nhất Hạnh
Let's get to work

Bend the curve
Take it down like Francis
Take it down like Rosa Parks
Let's get to work

Bend the curve
Take it down like Harvey Milk
Take it down like Sojourner Truth
Let's get to work

Bend the curve
Bend the curve
Pull it down like Moses
Pull it down like Abraham
To the Earth

Oh, yeah
Take it down like Galileo
Take it down like Katherine Johnson
Bend it down like Jackie Robinson
Bend it down like Colin Kaepernick

Bend it down like Oscar Schindler, Wangari Maathai
Lucia Obo, Nelson Mandela, Susan B. Anthony, Muhammad Ali
Chief Joseph, Jimmy Carter, Richard Carson, John Lewis
The fourteenth Dalai Lama

Bend the curve
It's gonna bend toward justice
But it's gonna take more of us
To do this work
