Open up your eyes so you can see

That if we all spread love in the community

We could make this world a better place for you and me

Maybe we should make a change, I think its time we make a change


[Verse 1]

Determined to keep running though my peers lack energy

Trynna leave my mark on the 21st century

History books are gon' acknowledge the name

Fuck the dollars and fame man thats not why I came

Want to obtain the title of a legend before my death

So Im working every second Im definitely over stressed

But Im blessed no need to rest homie Im on a quest

To express this shit off my chest till Im out of breath

I feel fresh in the land of the unbathed

Where the gun sprays even on sundays

Having fun waits when you ain't got yo money straight

And them bills need to get paid undelay

Trynna contemplate why you always got a stomach ache

Thats the type of shit I hate I just wanna run away

But I can't, do this for my niggas up in heaven

This life is a blessing by the time I turned eleven

I was already used to hard headed shooters

Pointing roogers at my dreams like freddy krueger

So I would be up with the rooster at the crack of dawn

Packing bongs studying about the walls of babylon

Telling people tag along but nobody would

I need to separate myself to stand out in the hood


[Bridge: Ev. B & Dashira]

Yeah

No time to waste now

Yeah

We gotta change now


[Hook: Dashira]

Open up your eyes so you can see

That if we all spread love in the community

We could make this world a better place for you and me

Maybe we should make a change, I think its time we make a change

Leave the past in the past and continue to live

Its easy to make a mistake but its hard to forgive

Dont be afraid to step into the unknown

You just gotta have faith and keep holding on

I think its time we make a change


[Verse 2]

Let me take this time out for a little ventilation

Honestly Im disappointed in our generation

In a age with smart phones, computers, and others

Instead of shooting for stars we still shoot at our brothers

Man Its crazy to me how you could be watching a movie

Then suddenly somebody walks in with a uzi

Or just think walking home with some skittles and a drink

Doing nothing wrong still get hit end up extinct

People been fighting since the biblical times

The only problem is technology just tripled the crime

For every step we take forward we take two back

We in a maze trapped I try to escape through rap

And state facts cause if the truth is told

The youth can grow change the way we view the globe

Dont lose your soul in the hopes of vanity

Pursue your goals but stay close to family

The worst choice to make is the wrong one

Everything affects us in the long run

So with that being stated watch who you hang with

Its never too late for you to start making changes

No more war throw up a peace sign

Put your seat on recline and press rewind
