[Intro]

It's the way it is but not the way it should be

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for changes

But nothin' seems to change

And I've been waitin' with strangers

We all feel the same

And I've been waitin' for summer

But all I get is rain

I'll keep on waitin' for changes

To help me with the pain

[Verse 1]

Yeah, all I see is racist faces

'Cause this human race is stuck in the matrix

Wake up, stay up, no wonder why they hate us

Try to separate us and keep us slaves to the paper

While the rich gettin' richer, I'm paintin' a picture of real life

What it feel like labelled a sinnеr

Labelled a nigga 'cause thеy fear me, be afraid

Been prayin' for better days, I'm just hoping that you hear me

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for changes

But nothin' seems to change

And I've been waitin' with strangers

We all feel the same

And I've been waitin' for summer

But all I get is rain

I'll keep on waitin' for changes

To help me with the pain

[Post-Chorus]

I see no changes

I see no changes

I see no changes

I see no changes

[Verse 2]

Crooked cops wanna see me popped

I'd rather team up with the opps to protect the block

All these protests with the same outcome

I treat women with respect 'cause I came out one

If you could read between the lines, you could see between the lies

Fill the news with the blues, put fear in front of our eyes

My whole country on fire, all the animals dyin'

The Prime Minister lyin' while the rich are survivin'

Now we under water, no food for my daughter, no home where the heart is

But we can't afford it, no, hope won't ignore us, no

Don't be afraid, been prayin' for better days

It's time to make a change, I'm just hopin' that you hear me

[Chorus]

I've been waitin' for changes

But nothin' seems to change

And I've been waitin' with strangers

We all feel the same

And I've been waitin' for summer

But all I get is rain

I'll keep on waitin' for changes

To help me with the pain

[Bridge]

Wake up and I ask myself

"Is life worth livin'? Should I blast myself?"

Am I really bein' myself?

I don't want to be nobody else

They want to put my mind in a cell

Where's heaven when you're going through hell?

Love's the only thing that could help

You feel it like it's written in braille

[Outro]

Still, I see no changes

I see no changes

I see no changes

I see no changes
