A Quiet Revolution

[Verse 1]
We guard the walls we built out of our fear
A quiet word is hard to find or hear
We count the debts and carry every spark
Of older fires burning in the dark
But holding tight only keeps us in the cold
A heavy weight that's getting far too old

[Pre-Chorus]
But there's a crack where the light is breaking through
An open hand is a different kind of view
Before the anger takes another turn
We have a lesson we can choose to learn

[Chorus]
Choose to be kind, let the armor fall away
Forgive the words that we didn't mean to say
With empathy we find a brand new start
A quiet revolution of the heart
It changes everything, it changes you and me
The simplest choice can set the whole world free

[Verse 2]
We see the bruise and recognize the pain
No longer needing someone else to blame
A gentle look can quiet down the storm
Within the silence, something starts to warm
We find our strength in standing side by side
No longer driven by a fragile pride

[Bridge]
It starts inside, a whisper in the crowd
A softer wave that rises deep and loud
Not backing down, but stepping into grace
To find ourselves within another's face

[Chorus]
Choose to be kind, let the armor fall away
Forgive the words that we didn't mean to say
With empathy we find a brand new start
A quiet revolution of the heart
It changes everything, it changes you and me
The simplest choice can set the whole world free

[Outro]
Just choose to be kind
Let the healing start
A revolution of the heart
[Instrumental Outro]
