The Change Has Yet To Come

Sebastian Danchin

>
They tried to kill my dream on a cold Memphis evening
They accused me and they jailed me while the ghetto was burning
My life may be a nightmare but the dream will go on living
And I'm sitting here thinking the change has yet to come

They tried to hush my voice with whiskey, crack and cocaine
Knowing all the time that my loss would be there gain
No matter how hard I fight, it always ends in vain
And I'm sitting here waiting, for the change has yеt to come

Desegrеgation, integration, equal opportunity
Those words sound so familiar but their meaning is empty
Oh I wonder will they ever, ever become a reality
I won't stop dreaming until it's all said and done

Is life without freedom really worth living
Can social justice ever take on its full meaning
Is education just a dream, just a dream that I've been dreaming
I'm still waiting for the change
I'm still waiting for the change
I'm still waiting for the change to come
