Title: Change
Lyrics Change[Feat. Wale]
La la-la la la la la-la la
La la-la la la la la-la la
I saw a dried up river and a rich man
turning on a garden hose
I see a young man picking up a gun
I guess that's where the money goes, yeah
am I just as good as a bad man sleeping
while the rest are dying
or am I just as bad as a good man saying
there's no use in trying'
Oooo, tell me do you still believe
Oooo, everything that you read
Till we learn to get together
and see who we really are
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
If nobody's gonna wake up
and start asking whose in charge
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
ain't shit changing but diapers on babies get higher
in the background singing singing (laa la la laa)
singing (laa laa la la la)
ok sing it
Some people do it all for money
and some do it all for the love, yeah
Some do it all for the glory
'Cause nothing else they're thinking of
I saw a man in a four door truck
complaining that the price is high
like a well fed man with a spoon in his hand
saying who ate all the apple pie, yeah
Oooo, tell me do you still believe
Oooo, everything that you read
Till we learn to get together
and see who we really are
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
If nobody's gonna wake up
and start asking whose in charge
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
If I ain't ready to listen
I'm never gonna listen most follow intuition
While they wishing it would work and my vision isn't perfect so I will never learn for it
Don't wishing for some change like a church worker
Hallelujah, preacher I am not influenced
If I don't donate to your movement am i not improving
and while a poor kill a poor
For a portion of piece of American society pie
I get high, the munchies I got
So down with this
I got the girl looking at you 'cause I'm worth kissing (mwah)
and I ain't ready to wait when their dollars on the rain
Why would you expect change?
Till we learn to get together and see who we really are
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
If nobody's gonna wake up
and start asking who's in charge
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change
Ain't nothing gonna change no no
Ain't shit changing but diapers on babies get higher in the background singing singing
(laa la la la) singing (laa laa la la la) |
