Some People Change

George Canyon


His old man was a rebel yeller 
bad boy to the bone 
he say, can't trust a coloured feller' 
he'd judge em' by the tone of their skin 

And he was raised to think like his dad 
their mind full of hate 
On the road to no where fast 
till the greats of god got in his way 
and he saw the light and hit his knees 
and cried and said a prayer 
he rose up a brand new man 
left the old one right there 

Here's to the strong 
Thanks to the brave 
don't give up hope 
Some people change 
against all odds 
against the grave 
love finds a way 
Some people change 

She was born with her mothers 
Guess you could say it's in her blood 
she hates that she's gotta have it 
she fills a glass up 
she'd love to kill that bottle 
but all she can think about is a better life 
a second chance 
and everyone she's letting down 
she throws that bottle down 

Here's to the strong 
Thanks to the brave 
don't give up hope 
Some people change 
against all odds 
against the grey 
love finds a way 
Some people change 

Thank god for those who make it 
Love be the light
