The Revolution Starts Now

I was walkin' down the street
In the town where I was born
I was movin' to a beat
That I'd never felt before
So I opened up my eyes
And I took a look around
I saw it written in the sky
The revolution starts now
Yeah, the revolution starts now

The revolution starts now
When you rise above your fear
Tear the walls around you down
Revolution starts here
Where you work and where you play
And where you lay your money down
What you do and what you say
The revolution starts now
Yeah, hey the revolution starts now

The revolution starts now
In your own backyard
In your own hometown
So what you doin' standin' around?
Follow your heart
The revolution starts now

Yeah
Oh hoo
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
In your own backyard
In your own hometown

Last night I had a dream
That the world had turned around
All our hopes had come to be
And the people gathered around
They all brought what they could bring
And nobody went without
And I learned a song to sing
The revolution starts now, now, eh

The revolution starts now, yeah
The revolution starts now
(In your) own backyard
Your own hometown, yeah
What you doin' standin' around?
Ooh hoo, yeah
The revolution starts now
Yeah, right now
Right now
Ooh hoo, in your own backyard
In your own home town
Ooh hoo
Backyard (yeah, yeah, yeah)
In your own hometown
