Time For A Change
I’m not sure how to describe how I would change the world,
But I know my soul will never be sold
I’m not sure what this is all about,
But I won’t go out and scout
I wanna be this
And I wanna be that
But I don’t want to end up being like cr*p
I think it’s safe to say I want the world to change
Maybe my idea to you seems a little vague,
But that’s OK.
Inspiration is all it takes
Without it, your dream breaks,
It’s all chewed up like a steak.
People hate more than they love
And they all still look as peaceful as a dove
I say it’s right to say it’s time for a change
A little time to break the cycle and rearrange
There are people who can see through America’s little white lies,
But these lies are covered up so much, your loved one is the one who dies!
They serve for our country when America is “in need”
But really the government just wants power so they make it seem as if all this is a "good deed"
This isn’t right,
It hurts like someone just took a bite
Out of my life
After they cut me deep with a knife
The time for change is just around the corner,
Don’t they remember?
The land of the free,
Home of the brave?
I say we’re all cowards
Filled with greed.
It’s not just what we see,
It’s also the way they make us believe.
How we’re not good enough for the rest
If we're simply not the best
It’s a shame what media has done to your soul
It’s like we’re trapped in a bowl
Going round and round
Not being able to rebound
You’re beautiful to me
Just find yourself
And you’ll see
America is no longer querencia,
It’s more like it’s become sehnsucht
I find it hard to believe that our former president is capable of being duende
To someone who is orenda
These reasons are why my soul make me feel like such vagary
I have a passion for being ostranenie
I find myself to be somewhat elysian
And you should, too.
To come to a conclusion
Since all this to you is such confusion,
The world needs people with meliorism
Or at least we all need a little more serendipity
So please remind me,
What’s it like to be free?
One for all
Or all for one?
Hell, America, we’re going, going…
Gone
