Everything can change, in the matter of a day, and no matter what I say No matter who you are, no matter what you've been through I pray my words take you away, to a place where there's no more pain In the midst of a hurricane Peace that surpa**es all understanding is gonna pull you through the rain And I guess sometimes you've gotta ask the question and Hope you don't draw too much attention and Accept that you're gonna face rejection They'll tell you you're going in the wrong direction We got to learn the lesson, we got to make progression or Will we wait till another cla**room gets shot up by another automatic weapon? We got to make a change, got to rearrange, can't keep doing the same Got to go through the fire and the flame Go through the darkness see what remains Be the change, be the light, be the one that breaks through the night Be yourself, fight the fight, tell 'em everything's gonna be alright, it's gon' be alright When all I ever see is hurting When all I ever feel is burning When the wind blows, when the waves roll Will we make it home? Carry us through this storm The world around us can be so heartless Will you guide us through the darkness When the wind blows, when the waves roll Will we make it home? Carry us through this storm Everything's so upside-down, tell me now
Do you ever think we're gonna bring it back around Will this grey cloud follow me around Till I'm six feet deep and under the ground? I have my doubts, sometimes I wanna disappear into the crowd Cause it gets so loud, to try figure it out We're on this one way track and it's running out Somebody's prostitute is somebody's mother Somebody's daughter is secretly a cutter Somebody's secret lover is looking down from their penthouse At somebody who's sleeping in the gutter Now somebody's little brother got gunned down in the streets because of his colour Where will it end, can we pretend Will it all just work out in the end? Through the coldest day, the longest night Will you guide me home will you be my light? When the shadows of the past try to pull me down Will you take my hand when I lose my sight? We found real love in a hopeless place We found His love, and we found His grace Erased our past, gone without a trace We know real love now we can't replace And we know He's making everything new, Because thats just what He do When the world's falling down, walls all around I keep my eyes focused on You You are the hope You are the light The darkness trembles at Your sight And I know that we'll make it through the night and I know everything's gonna be alright, it's gon' be alright
