Emma Grant - Upside Down

What if in the race to be the best
You turned around and helped the rest to get there before you
What if at the table set for four
You took the fifth seat on the floor before you’re told to
What if the goal for higher pay
Was not to keep but for more to give away
What if your virtual embrace
Became the time spent face to face with the lonely
Living in the upside down
Let the weight fall to the ground
As the world keeps turning
Living in the upside down
Where you give from what you’ve found
And the world keeps turning
What if to climb the ladder of success
Means to join somebody in their mess until it’s over
What if the fame that you’ve been searching for
Begins and ends with loving the poor
Living in the upside down
Where the lost become the found
And the world keeps turning
Living in the upside down
Where the servant wears a crown
So the world keeps turning
The push, the pull, the tug of war
The people adding up the score
Who’s winning
The networking, the power grab
The ones looking for backs to stab
It’s over
When you’re living in the upside down
Where the last are leading now
And the world keeps turning
Living in the upside down
Where the kings will take a bow
So the world keeps turning
Living in the upside down
Where the silent make a sound
And the world keeps turning
Living in the upside down
Where the kingdom can be found
So the world keeps turning
