Empathy (Intro / Anguish) I feel the pain in the world, It cuts so deep. Too many of our young are dying, Yet so few care. (Chorus 1) We can’t just watch the world burn, What’s the price of all this silence- What’s the cost of endless violence- (Verse 1 / Anger) One world divided by greed, Nations, faiths, and politicians deceive. Selling us hate and lies, To feed corporations’ greed. One people, blinded to what we need, Empathy and compassion could set us free. (Chorus 2) I feel the pain in the world, It cuts so deep. Why are we letting the young die- Why don’t we care- (Verse 2) I’ve seen hope turn into fear, Watched love fade when no one’s near. Leaders preach while children bleed, Profit grows from every need. Bury the truth six feet underground, We build walls to keep control, But lose the pieces of our soul. All are blind to what we need — Empathy and compassion could set us free. (Chorus 3) We can’t just watch the world burn, What’s the price of all this silence- What’s the cost of endless violence- Can you feel- Can you see- What’s left of our humanity- (Verse 3 / Final Plea) One world divided, Nations, faith, and politics deceived — Feeding hate to fan the flames Beneath our screams. They want to kill empathy and compassion Before it can set us free. (Outro / Hope) No one feels, No one sees, There is no difference between you and me. Empathy and compassion — Will set us free
