[hook]

things need to change, yeah
things need to change, yeah
the world is deranged, yeah
we need to be saved, yeah
(x2)

[verse 1 + jack rootes]

open my eyes, see hate and pain
currently goin’ ’round the world today
so many kids being so uncouth
there’s no respect amongst the youth
fighting and stabbing for no reason
out for blood, whatever the season
and it brings about a lot of pain
when kids get slain, by men with blades

lying in the street, holes in their chest
innocent, but they still end up dead
another stabbing, another body drops
i have to wonder when it’ll stop
for all of us, it’s either pain or stress
that won’t fall like a rainforest
people say governments are corrupt
i say the same goes for all of us!

i mean, we all steal, rob, stab and fight
how on earth can we say that we’re alright?
problems don’t vanish like they’re see through;
there’ll be loads more once we leave the eu!
so tell me, who the f+ck can we fool
when rolf harris can still walk into schools?
these things make me so d+mn sick!
things need to change right now quick!

[hook]

[verse 2 + albi]

this world is corrupt, all this needs to stop
all of the stabbings goin’ on in the blocks
the world is a mess, let’s focus instead
on anxiety and stress!
i be thinking’ and thinkin’ and dreamin’
and wishin’ that isis would leave us alone
but they thinking beheadings be bringin’ the stress in
and keepin’ the peace in the home!

this is all wrong! what are they bringing?
tryin’ to increase the wages of living
and you can’t be alone, even at home
you’re wearing a smile, but your heart is all broke
your smiles are all fake, this a mistake!
look, i pray for my bros in the grave!
your smiles are all fake, this a mistake!
i pray for my bros in the grave!

things need to change, the world is deranged
i can’t stand and watch people go through this pain!
they sleeping on paths, they’re going astray
i don’t want to die on the street, in the rain
this is all crazy yeah, why is this happening?
why is this happening lately?
see, this is all crazy

[hook]

[verse 3 + jack rootes]

oh say! can you see
the us ain’t the land of the free?
especially if you’re not born white
i gotta ask; how is that right?
this for trayvon, philando, emmitt
and those who had lives early ended
people still treated like slaves
here in the home of the brave

how on earth can they be honest
when a racist orange is in office
trying’ to build a southern wall
having mexico pay for it all?
too much is a little too much
racism must be cut!
racist cops should be fired
equal rights should be hired

don’t make yourself a mess
i know the world’s become so stressed
so many issues in construction
on a path to self destruction
but even i know it’s not too late
to turn around, make the world great
we should make love, not war instead
one love, like bob marley once said
