Evolve - Emily Elbert

There’s a piece, there’s a part

There’s a flicker, there’s a spark

That burns in all

And it twists, and it turns

It divides and it diverges

Until it’s lost

They say you’d better choose what you’re about

Make your choice and mark it down

It’s now or never

Yeah, fast is better

In the real world, you’d best get yours

No time to stop, no time to explore

Stuck with no release

But love lets us free

Because we are more than the sum of all our parts

We’re the silence in the space between the notes

There’s a force that brings us together

It’s the same one that created us all

And now, the point is to evolve

Is there a limit to our love

On what’s allowed, on who deserves it?

No

It can’t be broken

Must I decide my point of view

Based on the lies masked as the one and only truth?

Such words aren’t spoken

Who are we to pretend we know

There’s only one way to make it home

All different paths toward a greater goal

Because we are more than the sum of all our parts

We’re the silence in the space between the notes

There’s a force that brings us together

It’s the same one that created us all

And now, the point is to evolve

We can rally, we can rise

We can change, well, we can try and try

To keep moving forward

And we’ll get what we give

And we’ll live if we let live

It takes all kinds

We’ll do it one step at a time

Because we are more than the sum of all our parts

We’re the silence in the space between the notes

There’s a force that brings us together

It’s the same one that created us all

And now, the point is to evolve
