Time and time and time again
Life happens when we make our master plan
To watch it fall apart in God's hands
We can try to imagine what life would be like
If we aimed for perfection, no existence
A dedication to no resistance. NO RESISTANCE
Like a shadow in the night see the light
These are the darkest and heaviest of times
Facing a breakdown who's gonna gain ground
When its time to decide to who's gonna run your life
For the good of all people, all faces and races of ONE truth
WE RISE, WE FALL.
WE'LL FIND IT ALL INSIDE US, INSIDE
Oh, we are gonna need to let go of this
Oh, this tight grip and illusion, yeah
There are gonna be brighter days ahead
Just as bright as they've always been
A CHANGE IS GONNA COME
Have you ever wondered? Have you ever seen it?
Does it need to happen, for you to believe it?
What about the oceans? What about the children?
What about the grasslands? What about the mountains?
What about the water? What about the rivers?
What about the seasons? Will we still need them?
What about the Africans? What about the Indians?
What about AMERICANS? Who's gonna change them?
Oh, we are gonna need to let go of this
Oh, this tight grip and illusion, yeah
There are gonna be brighter days ahead
Just as bright as they've always been
A CHANGE IS GONNA COME
A CHANGE IS GONNA COME
I said a change is gonna come
A CHANGE IS GONNA COME
