collective efforts - hour of change lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
i’m sick of following the war in depression
close my eyes, let me free myself and
take it back to the bliss of my ignorance
when i still believed in idealism and
people who think bigger than self
notice how everything centered on wealth and power
it’ll lead us in the of the cowards and now is the hour of change
we can take it to the heart of the streets where the folk really need hope
or we can take it to the top of the food chain to see who’s pulling these ropes
tug and war and these people better shut these doors
and family’s way worse than we know
i know and you know that they slowly taking over now

it’s just a matter of time before the mind changes
i watch strangers evolve from old friends
you see pain in the eyes when the hurt builds up
so much that they just can’t hold it in any longer
will it get harder?
scars aren’t always physical, are they?
they sure are permanent
it comes with learning that we’re all just a little bitty part of it
this life
we lose or we flourish and it’s our purpose to make what went wrong right
and if we choose to reverse good work that’s been done
how we gonna win this fight?
what you live for is what some die for
is what you do worth giving your life for?
think about it while you go about your day
and pray for the people out paving the way
[chorus]
time’s ticking and the world keeps spinning
i do my part on this earth i’m living
as we live we might find love
just sometimes hurt, there will be pain
but if we give in time we can trust
the only way to learn is to welcome change

[verse 2]
yo
ay yo, we tryin’ to find [?] between the have and the have+nots
and [?] negative mascot

been runnin’ through the ocean
brother tryin’a breathe but he chokin’
chest feelin’ tense from another dense dose of the medicine
keep knockin’ till they let us in
bringin’ light and takin’ lives like edison
but then again, if we ain’t all together it’s irrelevant
pray for my prevalence. train for intelligence [?]
i’m livin’ what i’m teaching
knee+deep, 30 over 30 and develop it
defeat the downfall, [?]
keepin’ the peace up with beats from the street to the+

town hall meetin’
went out for the speak for a+town sound to the rugged of the d
yo, we handle them business. wonderin’ what is this?
ce certified live and survived with a vengeance
for the menacin’ masters to bringin’ them disaster
brother ben sing ’em while they’re bringin’ them rapture
they got my mind captured, the mind stay fractured, in need of a fix
[?] with a 16 clean with a 9+6
mind flip with a bit of devotion
i’m trippin’ off and sippin’ the potion and another man coastin’
let me get a bigger dose. folk, yo, i’m goin’ for broke
and we can toke with [?], yeah, we’re smokin’
i need a relaxation
stay patient and elevate stakes for the sake of my statements
never get a break, yo, i’m breakin’ the makeshift rift with the fakin’
keep spittin’ till i’m bringin’ the bacon
for god’s sake, i do what it takes and try to pass on the grass when i’m livin’ with the snakes
and the snakes [?] and the sirens to bring in the violence
another red alert bursts with the [?]
need silence. you really need timeless music
something for the mind, someone trin’ to do this
got nothin’ to prove, just dues that i pay while the rhythm is played
but beat breaks, yo, believe that i’mma do what it takes
the name’s mil, i don’t come with the bill for y’alls sake
[chorus]
time’s ticking and the world keeps spinning
i do my part on this earth i’m living
as we live we might find love
just sometimes hurt, there will be pain
but if we give in time we can trust
the only way to learn is to welcome change

[outro]
got to be some means by which americans can grow up
not everybody, but enough to expand+to broaden. we’ve done it before, why have we come to a halt seemingly? all civilizations come and go, there’s an ebb and flow to history. america will in fact die one day, there’s no doubt about that. there’s some great things in the country. but if it dies, will die in [?]
on the other hand though, i think in the end, it’s very important to tell young people that life is short and they will never be able to find a deep and profound joy unless they learn how to love and serve others. it’s just basic, just basic, you know…
