Changes |
Let faith be my shield, and let joy be my steed |
'Gainst the dragons of anger, the ogres of greed |
And let me set free with the sword of my youth |
From the castle of darkness, the power of the truth |
I’ve struggled as a man to figure out this life |
And what I’m doing with the time that I’ve been given |
I search to find the reasons for the wrong and for the right |
And it’s clear the status quo is the first thing that must go |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
I struggled as a boy to work out wrong from right |
Feet of clay by day, man of steel by night |
I wished for some great teacher that would guide me to the light |
But the voice inside me say there’s no quick and easy way |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Leaders seeking power are spoiling for a fight |
My learning friends are sure who should be chosen |
Each day the papers tell me who is wrong and who is right |
But between the lines I find no reason in the rhyme |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
There is nothing out of reach in this world |
The story told for many years can no longer serve us well |
There is nothing out of reach in this world |
It’s in our hands, in our hands |
Far away the spirit guides me |
Speaks in tongues I understand |
Far away the spirit calls to me |
A message for the common man |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
(Changes) |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
(Changes) |
To make it through tomorrow |
Gonna be some changes |
(Changes) |
Gonna be some sorrows |
We badly need them |
To make it through tomorrow |
Let faith be my shield, and let joy be my steed |
'Gainst the dragons of anger, the ogres of greed |
And let me set free with the sword of my youth |
From the castle of darkness, the power of the truth |
