I woke up wanting to change the world
Naah maybe change my clothes
Scratch that, I think I’ll just change my mind
To something more useful
Fruitful
I can change myself to be
What you want me to be
But then would I be me
Or just a carbon copy
Change is good
As long as your foundation remains
The same
And your change
Is meant to enhance
The résumé of your mind
So, I woke up wanting to change the world
Naah maybe change my clothes
Scratch that, I think I’ll just change my mind
To learn and grow
To study and know
To move and go
To a place where change isn’t so bad
And every thought I
Ever had
Is there.
I woke up wanting to change the world
Naah maybe change my clothes
Scratch that, I think I’ll just change my mind
And start that revolution
The mental dissolution
Of all the connotations
That THEY wanted me to think
I will change my mind to think
And be
A reflection of me and
Televise the resolution of my soul
I woke up wanting to change the world
Naah maybe change my clothes
Scratch that, I think I’ll just change my mind
