Joy Denalane

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
