It’s supposed to be repetitive so don’t come after me Time: 25 min Thanks Keith Richard for being my songwriting inspiration on this one 1953 represents the Rosenbergs! The idea of Ching came from the reference from Pink Floyd’s money 1989 represents the fall of the Berlin Wall!
You can’t be scared of change, Because as we get older, The world does too, Dictators die and minds become hypnotized, By that rock and roll song on your CD, By that poster on the street, Listen to his words, “We believe in God but he’s the savior of this country”, “ We believe in Peace so we’ll kill another soul”, And as another empire falls, Another phone makes a call, Another soldier is drawn, He never wanted to fight but he fights because he was told it was right, He never wanted to fight but his body is somewhere up in the sky, Freedom has a price, It’s something that makes people die, And they’ll make currency in their name, Ching, the money you make just isn’t enough, To have a place to survive, To have a place to survive, But he’s the one who saved when our country was in flames, But she’s the one who just wanted to save herself from the flames. You can’t be scared of change, Just because your mind can’t, The world always will, She’s free from the power that controlled her, But he’ll say that he’s the reason why we should have control, Dictators die but values never will, Bullets fly but the reason kills, The war is over but he’s afraid of what’s on the map, Because of what that senator threw at his head, The war is over but the greed just began, Because there’s two orphans in 1953, Listen to these words, “ We believe in love but we’ll hate when we see it”, “ We believe in freedom but we’ll arrest people for being free”, And as another revolution prevails, Another job gets taken away, Because when things change it’s hard just to get paid, Because when things change things just aren’t the same, Freedom has a price, It’s something that made people die, And they remember but chose to forget, About the lives that were lost that night, About the discrimination and the elimination, All because of a change, All because of a change, Ching, you just aren’t enough, To have a place to survive, To have a right to survive, To have a chance to survive, But he’s the one who walked the land before you, Don’t you get it, she has a family too, All because of a change, All because of a change, What beauty and terror comes with a mind, What better way to be a human than to hurt your kind, But the world gets older but we’re still the same, But we get older but the world's still the same, Another empire falls, Another phone call, Another soldier never comes home, You can’t be scared of change, Because change is what the world is used to, Because change is stronger than the human mind, Because change takes lives, Just listen to that rock and roll CD, It made people want to run away, Just pick up that textbook, Because they didn’t die just to be erased, Because they didn’t die just to be taken away, Because they didn’t die just to be afraid, Because they didn’t die to never see a change. And who knows what will become of who we are today, And who knows what will become of the graves that faded away, Because time ticks, and another style is worn, Because time ticks, another wall torn, 1989, history bleed it, and a singer wrote it, Just look at that poster, It just doesn’t look realistic, “How can I work if I’m not needed,” The writer throws away their pen, Because a robot can write better than them, The world lost a talent then, When she realized that she’ll never feel like she did when she was ten, But I’m scared, Of the things that hide under my bed, But I’m scared, Of the things that will happen when I sleep, All because of a change, All because of a change, But who knows what the world will be like when I can no longer open my eyes, It scares me that I’ll never be able to see what other people think while they survive, Because I didn’t die just to be erased, Because I didn’t die just to to never look up at space, Because I didn’t die just to be afraid, Because I didn’t die just to never see a change. Just give me something, world, Just give us something, world, Just give us something, world, Because if revolution is all we are, Then let us fight, Because if evolution is all we are, Then let us find a light, Just answer to her prayers, world, Just answer to our mistakes, world, You’ll be alright, world, All because of a change, All because of a change, All we need is a change, So world, Flip a page.
