Lyrics
THE TIPPING POINT (Janis Kelly © 2018)
What will it take to reach the tipping point?
See our reflection in each man and woman, girl and boy,
Ooh, yeah, what will it take to reach that point?
What will it take to bridge our great divide,
Recognize we’re all God’s children on the inside?
Ooh, yeah, how will we bridge our great divide?
Could it be the whole world must fall apart
To break the spell that’s been cast upon its heart
The one that keeps us separate, certain we all can’t belong
Or could it be that Love will save the day
Forge a path, lead the way
To that great field beyond our ideas of right or wrong
What will it take to reach the tipping point?
See our reflection in each man and woman, girl and boy,
Ooh, yeah, what will it take to reach that point?
What will it take to bridge our great divide?
Recognize we’re all God’s children on the inside,
Ooh, yeah, how will we bridge our great divide?
I believe there’s only one of us here
Just disconnected by hurt, hate and fear
It’s an illusion to think we’re anything but whole
And I believe that Truth must somehow prevail
Must take root, must tip the scale
Until its light shines forth from every human soul
What will it take to reach the tipping point?
See our reflection in each man and woman, girl and boy,
Ooh, yeah, what will it take to reach that point?
Ooh, yeah, what will it take to reach that point?
Ooh, yeah, how will we reach the tipping point?
