Change
So what's it going to be
L-U-P-E
Joy c'mon
WHOA!
There's so many things to say right now
I've got so much on my mind
You know what is going down
How much higher can we climb?
This system that we're living in
Depends on poverty and greed
But people don't need charity
It's justice that we need
Cause this street fair
Hey it's surrounding you
And it's worse than it's ever been
(we'll over come)
We'll over come the things they do yea oh
(we're halfway there)
We're half way there cause we know the truth
But livin is another thing
(we'll over come)
Over come the things they do
Lift your voice and sing
Change is comin our way
Step by step and day by day
And we'll live we'll live
By all that we say
Step by step and oh day by day
There's war all around the world
In the name of democracy
And tell the rope from the judge
When they're bringing poverty
I see my sisters on the move
Making sure we're all contained
Must've lost something on the way
When we use ourselves today yea
Cause this street fair
Hey it's surrounding you
And it's worse than it's ever been
(we'll over come)
We'll over come the things they do yea oh
(we're halfway there)
We're halfway there cause we know the truth
But livin is another thing
(we'll over come)
Over come the things they do
Lift your voice and sing
Change is comin our way
Step by step and day by day
And we'll live we'll live
By all that we say
Step by step and day by day
Now before we go foward we gotta take them back
So we can know where to dig
Cause if we never know what happened in the past
Than we can never know just what it is
If we don't do it for us
We gotta do it for our kids (kids)
So they ain't gotta relive
See there's so much happenin
Gonna get fixed with singin and rappin
We gotta take action and
Turn preachin into practicin
Cause what happened back then
Will be right back again whoa
But each one teach one
Cause we only as fast as the last one straggilin
So help 'em out
Step by step
Day by day (uh)
I said it won't be long (be long, be long)
Step by step
Come with me
I feel it comin on strong yea
Step by step
Day by day
Oohhh we're gonna over come
Step by step
Come with me (uh)
As long as we are one
A change is comin our way (sing it)
Comin our way oooohhhhh
Step by step and day by day
I said we'll live by all that we say
Step by step (people) and day by day
A change is comin our way
(said it's comin our way)
Step by step and day by day (ooooohhh)
(you know it's comin)
We'll live by all that we say
Step by step now come with me
