C#@NGE

Look around and see, a lot of big topics:

Mostly media nonsense and a global no-fix.

 

Front Line.

Headlines.

"Natural" disasters

Buddhists

Scientists

Pastors

 

Government Theories.

Political conspiracy, you'll see.

 

We all claim to want "CHANGE"

For what?

10 Lanes, bigger planes, sky trains?

 

Is this the change you all are waiting for?

Hoping for?

Killing for?

Dying for.

This change has knocked us down to the floor.

 

It's sad but it's true

my buddy in Garfield said "Come Through,

meet me at the corner store

Angel, I need to tell you more."

 

He says, "The struggle is real,

the pain I feel

IT consumes us daily.

Lets all get away from this, maybe."

 

Even the girls in County

are all standing strong.

Saying, "What we did was wrong."

 

"I don't do things, I've done things."

Says one girl quietly.

21 years old,

lived her whole life in sobriety.

 

Tears in her eyes, twinkling

"I want change, we all do.

We see the change in you.

We hope you see it too."
