Xseven - Change lyrics

See I look around me, and all I see is d**h, misery and pain And it's simply strange, because if we're made in the image of the one we call God Than what does that say for him, man isn't it odd That we're just trying to survive But even a stable 9-5 isn't enough to get you by And we wonder why so many commit suicide And the truth is so rare that we've come to welcome all their lies And let them mask it as the truth until it affects our own life Then it becomes hard to pay the bills and you ask yourself How, why and will I take a f**in' stand – maybe not now But soon... Man I swear I'll make a change I'mma a**ess my own life and I will rearrange Every aspect, not only to benefit myself, but also the ones I love I'm not a firm believer but if there is someone above Then I know there's a better place than the hell I live in now So somebody show me how... Can we change ourselves just a little to accept That all our hearts beat deep inside of our chest And we're all part of one mind If you don't understand than unwind I know it's not easy to comprehend But if not now then maybe sometime We will learn to change the world by starting with ourselves And find that what we really need is not something on a shelf We'll open our damn minds and realize we need help Because we're k**ing the world around us and the ignorance is felt Man, I remember I used to walk down this path and the trees kept it shady Then one year some money hungry prick decided to say well maybe We should build some condos near a golf course to define a higher living Than what this town is living now Well... We might not be the richest bunch but we're living f**ing proud If we don't sell d** or do d** but of course we smoke our weed And have a few beers on the weekend and sometimes it's what we need To escape the daily struggle that we're forced to live through I know it's not like this for all of us but it certainly is true That there's always someone else who has it worse than you do But if you keep on pushing than chances are you'll finally move through And all the blood sweat and tears you shed will never be in vain And there will come a time where you won't need to mask your pain You'll be able to enjoy the fresh air and won't feel so insane But remember what they say, without sacrifice there will be no gain Can we change ourselves just a little to accept That all our hearts beat deep inside of our chest And we're all part of one mind If you don't understand than unwind I know it's not easy to comprehend But if not now then maybe sometime We will learn to change the world by starting with ourselves And find that what we really need is not something on a shelf We'll open our damn minds and realize we need help Because we're k**ing the world around us and the ignorance is felt First let me congratulate our governments for constantly saying we need to prevent this climate change Than again nothings been done since 2009 so maybe that's why I'm enraged I'm no environmentalist I feel about the same As at least a million other people so when are we going to actually try and save This planet that supplies our food, and stop concerning if we get paid Somebody please answer this, when will we ever see the day Where we think with our heads instead of our wallets Instead of money we should be donating even the smallest Amount of time that we can come spare Why is it that we only act like humans in times of despair Huh... You know. I've never even thought about it Until I just said it... f**in'... I don't know I don't know what to say, but uh... Can we change ourselves just a little to accept That all our hearts beat deep inside of our chest And we're all part of one mind If you don't understand than unwind I know it's not easy to comprehend But if not now then maybe sometime We will learn to change the world by starting with ourselves And find that what we really need is not something on a shelf We'll open our damn minds and realize we need help Because we're k**ing the world around us and the ignorance is felt
