Corey Smith Be The Change Lyrics

Open your eyes up people
Take a good look around
Catch the tears filling up all those cracks in the ground
Turn off your televisions
Leave your picture-perfect neighborhoods
A lot folks out there ain't doing so good
Too many of us left out in the cold
No invitations given
No welcomes on roads(?)

But you can be the change you wanna see
Be the hope to those whose lives are far from easy
Reach out and lend a hand
Share everything you can
And be the change
Be the change
Be the change

Carry the world on your shoulders
For a little while
Put on someone else's shoes and walk a mile
Too many cups running fuller
While so many are going dry
The grass ain't always green on the other side
There's still a lot of work to be done A lot of wrongs to right
A lot of battles to be won
If you can

Be the change you wanna see
Be the hope to those whose lives are far from easy
Reach out and lend a hand
Share everything you can
And be the change

We all talk about how it oughta be
Cause we know that talk is cheap
But the time has come to let our actions speak
Yeah, it's getting late
No time to waste
Be the change you wanna see

Be the change you wanna see
Be hope to those whose lives are far from easy
Reach out and lend a hand
Share everything you can
And be the change
Be the change
Reach out and lend a hand
Share everything you can
And be the change
Be the change
Be the change
Be the change
oh oh oh
