In Demand - Jim James, Teddy Abrams, Louisville Orchestra

I see blood on my phone

World spinning out of my control

I see fear in us all

Don’t need to feed it anymore

But there are things

They can’t take

Can’t take our love

Can' take our grace

Gotta take my way

When I say

That only love will light the way

I see truth in your eyes

Openness to all the skies

I see truth and every color of the rainbow

But death is in demand

And blood is on my hands

If I do nothing

Yeah death is in demand

And blood is on my hands

If I do nothing

I see love in demand

I wanna kiss your hand

Take a knee before you

Let me now adore you

I see hope amidst despair

A sea of hands in the air

A sea of people in the streets

Proclaiming love and spreading peace

A sea of love

(Gonna lift the curse)

A sign of love

(Gonna lift the curse)

By speaking out

(We're gonna lift the curse)

By just showing up

(We're gonna lift the curse)

Read the news on the wall

Well it’s bad but that’s not all

It’s been told

It’s happening inside our heads

Trading real life for online death

Trading real love for social mess

But there are things

They can’t take

Can’t take our love

Can' take our grace

You gotta take our word

When we say

That only love will light the way

But death is in demand

And blood is on my hands

If I do nothing

Yeah death is in demand

And blood is on my hands

If I do nothing

I see love in demand

I wanna kiss your hand

Take a knee before you

Let me now adore you

I see hope amidst despair

A sea of hands in the air

A sea of people in the streets

Proclaiming love and spreading peace

A sea of love

(We're gonna lift the curse)

A sign of love

(We're gonna lift the curse)

By speaking out

(We're gonna lift the curse)
