lyrics

I want to speak to the world out there, said
I want to speak to the world out there
I want to speak to the world out there, said
I want to speak to the world I’ll say…

 (Verse 1)
Eyes on the water,
Do you want to live long?
Then look at where its coming from
Rivers just gone
TV on celebrity
Blind to the ground
Now the ocean’s going up
While the lakes are going d-down
See Syria is a
Warning to humankind:
When we run out of liquid got
Killing on our mind
Think it can’t happen here
But California’s on fire
Miami I’ll miss you
When the waves get higher and
I got kids on my mind
Of a different kind
The baby lion, mother’s hunting ground
Just drying
I live knowing the solution is here
With a switch
Granddad walked out of Auschwitz
I’ma deal with this
Crisis
Living in the illusion of plenty
Do you want to wait
Till the supermarket’s empty?
Time dripping away
Like a glacier in the sea
But the future’s not set
We are choosing what will be when

(Chorus)
Change
Oh change gonna come
Some day
Some day the waves are gonna rain and
Change
Yeah change gonna come
Cause nothing remains the same
It’ll become
Changed
Under the blazing sun
To something
Oh I don't know what, but
Change,
Yeah change gonna come
You better wake up and run cause…

(Verse 2)
No matter location
Dollar denomination
Political placement
Or religious persuasion
The nature of the globe
Is a single situation-
We all facing
The same devastation, frame:
A rainforest where
It ain't raining
That's what's happening
In the Amazon Basin
Where deforestation leads to
Desertification
…No more trees to breathe
We'll be suffocating
I hope it won't happen
But I fear that it will
If we don't start to see
How meat truly kills- its
More than just the chicken
And the cow and the pig
Its the space it takes up
To make them live
Gotta give the utmost
Place to Nature
So this sacred cradle
Can stay stable
Start protecting her
Last precious living bits
To nurture Earth
Like the treasure that she is where….

( Chorus)

 (Bridge)
I don't really care
If it all goes up tomorrow
Bodies dropping now
Gotta stop it today, yeah
I don't really care now
If my wallet is hollow
When the paper that its made of'’s
All going up in flames now
I don't really care now
If you follow or go on your own
Sky is falling
And we all in the same boat
I don't really care now
If you profit or go broke
All I really care's life's
Got a place to grow

(Instrumental Break)
  
(Verse 3)
Alright now come on listen cause we
Really got no time to waste
We gotta face it
Flames on the rise today
Try to escape it
But where you gonna hide away -
Asphyxiation
Make you wanna fry but wait-
Don't be afraid cause
There's still a little time to take
For the occasion
‘Fore it caves in and breaks,
We better brace
Even if it makes you cry - the haste
For me to say
This could be one of the last days
...To change
Ever since the beginning
Of this civilized killing age
We've been erasing
Cutting down the forests and plains
And replacing
With stains but it can't sustain
Cause its straining
The soils and the streams- our veins...
Now its changing
The weather and its getting so insane!
That the atmosphere depletes,
Feeling the pain
Now if the heat keeps raising and the rains...
This Earth may go up in flames

(Final Chorus)
Change
Oh change gonna come
One way or another
Something’s gonna break and
Change
Yeah change gonna come
But what are we waiting for?
Are we numb from
The pain
That makes us run
Away but we can't escape
From the one:
Change, yeah change gonna come
Someday, some day has come

(Outro)
Something in the air
Something in the air out there
I smell something in the air
Something in the air out there
I see something in the air...
