Be the Change

Open your eyes up people, and take a good look around
Catch the tears fillin' up all those cracks in the ground
Turn off you televisions; leave your picture perfect neighborhoods
A lot of folks out there ain’t doing so good
To many of us left out in the cold
No invitations given, no welcome mats unrolled
But you can, be the change you wanna see
Be the hope to those whose lives are far from easy
Reach out and lend a hand, share everything you can
And be the change, be the change
Carry the world on your shoulders, for a little while
Put on someone else shoes, and walk around
So many cups a runneth over, while so many goin dry
The grass ain’t always green on the other side
There’s still a lot of work to be done
A lot of wrongs to right, a lot of battles to be won
If you can be the change you wanna see
Be the hope to those who lives are far from easy
Reach out and lend a hand, share everything you can
And be the change, be the change
Reach out and lend a hand, share everything you can
And be the change, be the change
Be the change
Be the change
Be the change
