[00:10.76]We gotta make that change /
[00:13.54]We gotta make that change /
[00:15.05]We gotta change the life /
[00:19.58]Every day I turn on the TV watching all the violence /
[00:22.66]So many dying, another moment of silence /
[00:24.21]We gotta change this, not rearrange this /
[00:27.74]Or wish I'll forever remain nameless /
[00:29.12]Are we brainless, we fly aimless /
[00:32.84]With no direction, no police protection /
[00:34.18]Here's my suggestion: kill the egos /
[00:36.72]Then hold the benefits, we can reap those /
[00:39.39]If you have a dream，you can easily reach that /
[00:41.77]Be who you want, never stop and look back /
[00:43.40]Champions win, losers just complain /
[00:45.89]Don't be a spectator ，you gotta play the game /
[00:48.42]But if you play the game，you gotta change the game /
[00:50.92]Extraordinary, never remain the same /
[00:52.40]Nobody said life was going to be easy /
[00:55.98]But I'm living proof，ya'll please believe me /
[00:57.53]Oh I wish there was a place that I could find /
[01:04.75]To shield you from the pain /
[01:08.53]That you will see in this lifetime /
[01:13.93]For now, just close your eyes /
[01:17.64]Oh I wish there was a place that I could find /
[01:23.07]To shield you from the pain /
[01:27.80]That you will see in this lifetime /
[01:32.24]For now, just close your eyes /
[01:35.14]It's like I'm on one knee and asking lord to save us /
[01:38.87]And give thanks for all the things you gave us /
[01:40.45]And turn around and go and rob our neighbor /
[01:43.03]And don't that sound just so outrageous /
[01:45.54]Man, we so misdirected，having *** unprotected /
[01:49.03]So we spend 24 hours a day on BlackBerries /
[01:52.93]Cuz we feel so disconnected,Now check it /
[01:54.88]We buy the latest kicks,But can't keep our phone on /
[01:57.51]And rock Sean Johns sleeping on the futon /
[01:59.00]Mercedes Benz but still living in projects /
[02:01.51]We got toilets but we still piss on our steps /
[02:04.10]Man, I can't begin to explain /
[02:06.45]What types of thoughts running through our brains /
[02:08.06]Mercedes getting hard to maintain /
[02:09.00]Then we let go and pump poison into our veins, it's insane /
[02:13.79]I wish there was a place I could fly /
[02:15.94]Where the world didn't need to cry /
[02:17.21]So now we just look to the sky /
[02:19.31]Hoping now we make it /
[02:20.19]We only get one chance, hoping now we take it /
[02:23.85]I wish there was a place I could fly /
[02:25.13]Where the world didn't need to cry /
[02:27.34]So now i just look to the sky /
[02:28.46]Hoping now we make it /
[02:30.37]We only get one chance, hoping now we take it /
[02:32.87]Oh I wish there was a place that I could find /
[02:38.08]To shield your heart from the pain /
[02:43.80]That you will see in this lifetime /
[02:48.20]For now, just close your eyes /
[02:52.92]Oh I wish there was a place that I could find /
[02:57.35]To shield your heart from the pain /
[03:02.07]That you will see in this lifetime /
[03:07.53]For now, just close your eyes /
