[Intro] [Warm Rhodes piano • Deep pocket upright bass • Lush strings arrangement • Soft vocal harmonies] Ooo... yeah... Look around... Everybody searching... Everybody hurting... Still trying to make it through... --- [Verse 1] Rent keeps climbing, checks stay the same Working two jobs just to play the game Teachers walking out, nurses burning low Everybody carrying a weight they never show Phones keep glowing while our hearts disconnect More opinions... less respect Everybody wants to be heard somehow But nobody really listens now --- [Pre-Chorus] We're all chasing something we can't hold Trading peace for silver and gold Running so fast we forget to breathe Missing all the things we really need --- [Chorus] People make the world go round Love can lift it, hate can bring it down Every choice echoes through the crowd We're writing tomorrow right here, right now People make the world go round Broken hearts still make beautiful sounds If we change ourselves somehow Maybe we can change the world now --- [Verse 2] Children scrolling before they can dream Learning life through a glowing screen Families sitting at the same table But silence is louder than cable Storms keep rising, oceans cry Questions living in the summer sky Still there's hope inside every face Waiting on a little more grace --- [Bridge] Maybe love is still the revolution Maybe kindness is the only solution Every stranger is somebody's prayer Every soul deserves somebody there If we heal the heart The world will follow One small light Can brighten tomorrow --- [Final Chorus] People make the world go round Every whisper, every joyful sound What we plant is what we've found Love keeps turning this whole world around People make the world go round Together we're stronger than we've known Hand in hand, heart to heart That's where every change can start --- [Outro] (Layered gospel harmonies • Rhodes piano fades • Soft ad-libs) Round and round... Round and round... People make the world go round... Love keeps the world going 'round...
