Changes Together


Chorus- we’re in this together we’re in together, 
in this together, 
2020  been tough for all of us 
With this virus it’s been rough 
Life is full of changes 
sometimes it can be hard
Life is such a journey
It's taken us so far
We stick together until the end 
We work to lend a hand 
 We thank all the essential workers 
who fight to save lives , 
we stay home, more lives are saved 
support and feed  for the need founded by Maggie Bairds family 
Who Supports and feeds  to those in need during the  pemdemic and delivers meals for the need 
There are  hero’s who are out on the front lines they never give up on hope , we don’t need to either like times like this , love, family , and it’s our time to rise above . Together  we won’t 
 leave anyone behind , we  stay together 
Reach out , tell someone they belong , 
everything is okay because 
 
Chorus- we’re in this together we’re in together, we’re in this together, 
 
 we are strong , No matter what  you're doing  
On unemployment, not in classrooms, 
 not on tour  
class of 2020 , 
musicians on tour 
you’ve held on as  much as you can , we’ll see you again until the end   
we are giving up things that we love to do , 
having to communicate by zoom and phones , we’re doing it for the greater good , 
this isn’t forever , there’s hope for the future 
Less Activities, masks on  saving more lives . 
 
Chorus-  We’re in this together, we’re in this together we’re in together, we’re in this together, we’re in this together, 
 
We know acceptance isn't easy , 
we’re still so divided 
George Floyd , breonna Taylor , Elijah McCain, Jacob Blake  many others have lost their lives due to police brutality , yes all lives matter but right now black lives matter , 
they haven’t mattered 
for a long time 
they need to matter 
Is this how it had to be? Is this the right path?
police put your weapons down, that means 
Nothing speaks to authority like taking a knee 
We need to unite together as one planet share voice and stand up , not give up 
be kind to one of another 
Dark skin is not a crime
racism needs to stop. 
Let us ca open to change, 
take a moment , There's always room for acceptance and change 
Hope for the future
