Lyrics:
Verse One.
as the knowledge kept accruing I had no choice but spit it
I would shout at any person who was standing within in distance
I would make my stance known and wear my heart on my sleeve
and let emotions be the captain of my ship of disease
I wanted to expose it all and show them all what life is like
when you leave the box behind and trust yourself with your insight
I couldn't stand to see the people living so blind
that my emotions condensed into a chi funneled rhyme
my fingers get tense then my pen starts to dance
to the rhythm of the chaos embroiled in man
the syllables and syntax are soothing to the soul
take my anger make a banger then perform it at a show
but do I make a difference when I'm on the stage spittin?
if the crowd wasn't drinking would they stick around and listen?
did I pick the wrong arena for my certain brand of poetry?
cuz change can't happen unless certain people notice me

Chorus: [2x]
I must be the change I'm longing to see
Won't expect someone to do it for me
I must be the one to make it all real

Verse Two.
I gotta be the change I wanna see or it will never happen
it's up to me to be the one who turns my thoughts to actions
the satisfaction gained from rapping in immaculate
but now I feel it's time that I expand my life and add to it
I need to raise awareness of the problems that are overlooked
and point out all the poisonous plants so they are never cooked
I need to offer up solutions
or be content to life in this life of lost illusions
the cost of choosing is the price of free will
you can just sit and think or you can implement your skill
you can live a life of luxury riding on your high horse
plowing through the cosmic sea ignoring all the time warps
or you can see what's wrong and still choose to do nothing
quit making up excuses, we have to do something
we have to do something
quit making up excuses, i have to do something

Chorus [2x]

Verse Three.
I'm a man of my word even when it isn't easy
there's nothing I can say if the people don't believe me
I need to be better by the end of the day
so I can stay synchronized with the pattern of change
it's a never ending moment of a never ending cycle
so I vow to stay glowing in the shadows of the frightful
I'm living my life while I'm facing my death
and my ego keeps saying I'm the only one left
I try to keep it quiet but I think it has a point
all of us are living with the echoes of our choice
it's a boomerang effect with uniform purpose
it delivers what was given so the balance is perfect
so the balance is perfect
it delivers what was given so the balance is perfect
so the balance is perfect
it delivers what was given so the balance is perfect

Chorus [2x]
