Changes

Yea, the world changes
Ain't crazy how this life goes?
It'll churn you and turn you
'Til you're searching for the life boat
Drowning in the superficial
Caught in a web of lies
Stagnate in the interstitial
Change is good
Or change is bad
Why?
This world color
Losing luster
We're painting over in black and white
Let me say something
Isn't it ridiculous
If I can sit and be articulate
About the state of affairs
Twenty-three
Still don't give a damn about who's who
In the head chair
But I won't front
Cause we do need change
And progress can't be made
When we berate
Everyone bold enough to state a claim
To make change
We first gotta admit we made mistakes
Sitting in my studio for twelve hours straight
Maybe I should get a real job
Or back in school
Be a doctor
Like everyone had preached
But money over everything's
A piss poor pursuit
Success ain't defined by the books I read
Or grades received
Realized and pressure alleviated
I standby
While lives get buried alive
Try as I might
Things change
We're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Only two things I know
Life comes and life goes
And it's always in the blink of an eye
I try to explain
But why, why, why
Why even try?
Here I go
On another flow
Tipping on my toes
Writing real words
Can I play em at my shows?
Will I catch fire
If I don't smoke?
Will I keep it together
If I stay broke?
I don't know
I don't know
We all gamble in this life
That's why it's called playing your cards
Right?
Cause words overarch
The endings of so many starts
I hope
I hope I do my part
I hope I'm strong enough to take charge
The entropy's against me
But I disregard the odds
With change comes chance
You'll forever be under fire
Sitting in my studio for twelve hours straight
Maybe I should get a real job
Or back in school
Be a doctor
Like everyone had preached
But money over everything's
A piss poor pursuit
Success ain't defined by the books I read
Or grades received
Realized and pressure alleviated
I standby
While lives get buried alive
Try as I might
Things change
We're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
I believe in higher reason
I believe in the art
I believe in the good
Relieving the dark
I believe in higher reason
I believe in the art
I believe in the good
Relieving the dark
Not one single step I made
I anticipated being right here today
It's changes
It's incredible I gotta say
Still betting on the cards I saved
Plan b became plan a
Plan b became plan a
Not one single step I made
Things change
I'm losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
Things change, we're losing the fight
