le1f - change lyrics

[click here to read le1f’s account of the making of “change”]

[verse 1: le1f]
skittles and an arizona
and it’s like that from new york down to arizona
it’s crazy mostly all over the whole world
my generation needs to come up ’cause it’s outta order
so, they say that life is love, or is that a facade?
if black is beautiful, why is it so hard?
that’s why i grew up hoping that there was no god
at least not the way they taught us on the amistad
whoever the creator is, she made us all
so i don’t really know who should make that call
to say who is and who is not safe for work
to remove anyone’s life from this earth
uniforms got you thinking you a athlete
but it’s not a competition, if you ask me
can real recognize real?
we’re on the backburner like we’re 3/5ths still

[hook: dev hynes]
nonstop, drop top
baby, are you ready for a change?
you’re waiting for a change
you’re waiting for…
you won’t give up
baby, are you ready for a change?
you’re waiting for a change
you’re waiting for…
i have just what you want
i have just what you want
i have just what you want
i have just what you want
i have just what you want
i can help you get what you wanna change
you’re waiting for a change

[verse 2: le1f]
if you came from a hood with
drug dealers and undercovers, all kinds of hustlers
and your grade school teacher never would teach you
the history of your own culture, intentionally misinform you…
if anyone’s ever read your name
and grouped you terrorists and criminals one and the same
take one step forward
if you already know the aim is to try to put you to shame
because you’re not the same…
tired of waiting games?
add some fuel to the flame
come forth and stake your claim
if you’re living in a fear of events you think you can’t prevent
stop questioning your strength
take one step forward

[verse 3: miss geri]
do you think we can start a revolution, baby?
do you think we could save the world?
i heard you had something to yell
you’re afraid to say it
i heard it before and i know
i know it too well
i know it too well
always with the smoke and mirrors
put your life in your hands
come and see yourself clearer
take the fog away
