V5.5

[Verse] Caught in the age of algorithms Everywhere I turn is only further division Have you ever seen it quite like this before? Everyday the world is getting colder When did compassion just get cast off the shoulder? We should be on the same side It's a civil war [Chorus] Where is the human in humankind? I think we've lost it in our own minds Our empathy's been M.I.A We've been missing for days Now there's no one to save us We were born to this day and age Where expectations were meant to be met But what's the point if it's not with intent [Verse 2] The powers that be have got us thinking That it's you against me But the ship's slowly sinking And I think it's time we jump off this carousel Isn't it time we set our egos aside? 'Cause every human has a great mind And I know that together we could do so well [Verse 3] Maybe we could start by slowing down Turn the noise off and look around Find a little grace in the spaces between If we remember what it means to care Maybe we can meet each other there And build a world that's kinder than it's ever been [Chorus] Where is the human in humankind? I think we've lost it in our own minds Our empathy's been M.I.A We've been missing for days Now there's no one to save us We were born to this day and age Where expectations were meant to be met But what's the point if it's not with intent [Outro] So let’s make room for mercy Let’s choose to see the light If we find the human in humankind Maybe we’ll be alright
