Muhsinah - Changes lyrics

[Verse 1: Common] I'm the river that flow through the hood Through the woods, through the 'burbs Through the mud, through the bricks Over the curb, to the forest reserve Got with four acres and a forest of words Plant and grown them, for the young seeds to know them Trees is blowing, we see change in the wind It's a new day and I got to take it in See a black man run, we need him to win Young eyes search, search for a better tomorrow That belief lead the way and the angels follow Open doors for the hopeful to go through Cause I was chose to and I'm supposed to [Hook x2: Muhsinah] I know that change gon' come The race begun We're almost there, oh yea [Verse 2: Common] I spoke like a child, I wrote like a child Always smiled, let my mind float like a child Wishing I was smart as these kids are now All grown up still wishing I'm child, again Church song reminded me to stay grateful Omoye reminded me to stay playful Days go by, my life on high I lead on my wall so the fight don't die In me, I found purpose why I emcee Inspire a young world to be greater than me I fall awake and I dream a song So the little shorties will sing along [Hook x2] [Verse 3] Welcome children, welcome me Your sentiments is felt in me I see the future and the walk you have Don't let these fools take you off your path Laugh if you need to, smile if you need to Life is a trip, ride along and proceed to Drive to believe to do what you want to do Remember your kings and queens are still humble too Life is in front of you, no need to look back again Victory can be claimed while you still battling Travel along with the food I provide you To awaken the voice that's inside you [Hook x2] [Outro: Omoye Assata Lynn] Change is inevitable you can't stop it Change is happening in everybody's life Change is like a furious hurricane that you can't stop What is change? Change is Martin Luther King Jr., Ghandi, Shakespeare, Assata Shakur Barack Obama And you can't forget Common Change is gonna happen Change is hope
