Be The Change

Every day you say: I will make a better world
Life is not a fairy tale, no, not for boys and girls
We got to

Stop the talking, got to get down
Stop the talking, got to get down
Intentions only take you far
When you're on the road
Don't wait around for people to
Do what you should do
You got to

Stop the talking got to get down
Stop the talking got to get down
So be the change, so be the shelter
So be the one who's standin' up when they're lookin' at ya
So be the change, so be the shelter
Don't be tomorrow waitin' for the day to pass ya

A heavy heart can slow you down
When you're not aware
Clear the spaces in your mind
Stop to breathe the air

Lay a brick day by day
Build your house of love
Show that there's a better way
To help us rise above
You got to

Stop the talking, got to get down
You got to stop the talking, got to get down
So be the change, so be the shelter
So be the one who's standin' up when they're lookin' at ya
So be the change, so be the shelter
Don't be tomorrow waitin' for the day to pass ya

If not now then when?
Just begin
If not now then when?
So be the change, so be the shelter
So be the one who's standin' up when they're lookin' at ya
So be the change, so be the shelter
Don't be tomorrow waitin' for the day to pass ya
