Paroles de Change

When I was young I would look in the mirror Didn’t know it then but now it couldn’t be clearer I remember being filled with such wonder Before learning that the world can be harsher Who you love or the color of your skin Or the place that you were born and grew up in Shouldn’t decide how you will be treated Cuz we’re all the same when everybody’s breathing Waiting for a change to set us free Waiting for the day when you can be you And I can be me Waiting for a hope to come around Waiting for the day when hate is lost And love is found Waiting for a change, waiting for a change (Change, change) For all the brave and the souls who went before us Stand tall, then proudly lift your voices Let them know who we are and our choices And one day we won’t have to sing this chorus Waiting for a change to set us free Waiting for the day when you can be you And I can be me Waiting for a hope to come around Waiting for the day when hate is lost And love is found Waiting for a change, waiting for a change (Change, change) Hold on Waiting for a change (change, change) When I was young I would look in the mirror Didn’t see it then but now it couldn’t be clearer
