Revolution
Yea
Come on
The revolution
It won't be televised
Naw
We gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
This time around
Cause I didn't know then
What I know now
So I gotta do it right
This time time around
Yea thought you
Was a friend
But you did me foul
So I gotta do it right
This time around
And yea I'm flying high
But I can't
Forget the ground
I gotta do it right
This time around
Cause I was in the dark
And I'm the light I found
So I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
Me myself and I
All I rely upon
On my knees and cry
Once my supply is gone
I'm tearless fearless
And so I write a song
To keep up the appearance
Like I really know
What's going on
Til everything
Just fell through
The system they insist upon
Has failed you
You feels as if the fall
Is what compels you
To learn all that you can
And when you understand
Figure out who
You can help too
Now Let's move
Cause I didn't know then
What I know now
So I gotta do it right
This time time around
Yea thought you
Was a friend
But you did me foul
So I gotta do it right
This time around
And yea I'm flying high
But I can't forget the ground
I gotta do it right
This time around
Cause I was in the dark
And I'm the light I found
So I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
Living in the age
Of information
Don't know what to leave
Or what to take in
Dependin' on
Who is spendin'
How they spinnin'
What they're sayin'
Condescending
When explaining
Con descendants
We estranged with
No remembrance
But change it
Redefining roots
And don't align
With anything that
Undermines the youth
Cause know a day
Will come
When they're the ones
That ride for you
Hope they can
Provide for you
But they can not survive
If all we ever do
Is hide the truth
It just proves
That I didn't know then
What I know now
So I gotta do it right
This time time around
Yea thought you
Was a friend
But you did me foul
So I gotta do it right
This time around
And yea I'm flying high
But I can't
Forget the ground
I gotta do it right
This time around
Cause I was in the dark
And I'm the light I found
So I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
I was running
From mistakes
Running from regrets
Tripping on each step
Never know
What's coming next
See I was hiding
From myself
Just played the cards
I'm dealt
Never knowing
I could be the dealer
And the healer
The darkness really is
Nothing more
Than the revealer
It help me spark the light
That was inside
And always here
Help me
Stop the fight
With the girl
Inside the mirror
Set fire to my fears
Now a Woman
Has appeared
And it's clear
That I didn't know then
What I know now
So I gotta do it right
This time time around
Yea thought you
Was a friend
But you did me foul
So I gotta do it right
This time around
And yea I'm flying high
But I can't
Forget the ground
I gotta do it right
This time around
Cause I was in the dark
And I'm the light I found
So I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
I gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
Come on
The revolution
It won't be televised
Naw
We gotta do it right
This time around
This time around
This time around
This time around
Cause I didn't know then
