You can lay on your back and wait for change to come
Or you can get off your ass and make the change that you want
You can lay on your back and wait for change to come
Or you can get off your ass and make the change that you want
Why can't we be the change
Why can't we make a change
Why can't we break the chains
Why give our souls away
Lord I pray my soul to take
If I should die lay down a rose
Upon my grave
Grew from the concrete
I won't fade
I won't break
I'm here to stay
I'll make a way
I'll make a way
I'm here to stay
I done learned a lot of things through the pain
Deception is unfiltered, meaning anyone can change
Even ones you hold the closest, not worthy to be named
Hope those who betray, rot and burn see your face
In the mirror eyes swelled full of shame
Full of greed, full of stain
Black hearts and cold souls in a maze
Tryna find the key to heaven
But still the search evades
But if we come together we can find another way
Lord I pray my soul to take
If I should die lay down a rose
Upon my grave
Grew from the concrete
I won't fade
I won't break
I'm here to stay
I'll make a way
I'll make a way
I'm here to stay
