Prince - Things Have Gotta Change lyrics

Get on top, u will cop Cream The time is now, take the chance Get on top, you will cop, winner takes all As we dance to the Rhythm of the cream beat Never will you see me drowning in A pool of self-pity So, as a i ooze with the flow Here we go, and if you gimme an end, So take a little mo' The army of the brothers shall overcome, Bring in a crash from the drums Things have gotta change Get on top, u will cop, ho! Everbody, things have gotta change (cream) Get on top, u will cop (boogie) Although the times have changed Some things remain I say love thy neighbor, and i'll kick him if he ain't got the game The rules of desire read double standards, And if you're weak in the game That's somethin' that u'll die 4. Yeah, come on, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream) Everybody, things have gotta change! Get on top, u will cop, ho! (boogie) Like mlk of yesterday, who died to keep a dream alive Funny, but it seems like he died in vain Cause as i look around i see we ain't learned sh** And if the words are sticking, then hit me with it Cause u've gotta be true to yourself Do the best you can with the hand u've been dealt U see, i wouldn't have it any other way, Cause it's part of the game we play Come on (cream) Yeah, things have gotta change! (boogie) Get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream) Everybody, things have gotta change! Yeah, get on top The army of the brothers shall overcome And never succumb to the hum-drum Saving the key to person's brain, no! Free your mind and your a** will follow U've got 2 stand strong And never count down To a s**er with a closed mind Walkin' the thin line, Still livin' the days of the breadline Since this is the 90's, Reach a little higher, Npg, take it 2 the wire (cream) Yeah, things have gotta change! (boogie) Yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream) Everybody, things have gotta change! (boogie) Yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! Is today just another replay of yesterday A country in disarray, discrimination a mainstay I'm not naive that's why i contemplate If that's truly the faith, Then there's no time to waste So let's get ready to go the length, on the strip We're prospering together as one in this environment Yeah, come on, things have gotta change! (boogie) Yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream) Everybody, things have gotta change! (boogie) Yeah, get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream) (boogie, cream, boogie, cream) Everybody, things have gotta change! Get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream) Everybody, things have gotta change! Get on top, u will cop, ho! (cream )
