One day I'll be gone The world will keep turning I hope I leave this place Better than I found it Oh, it's hard, I know it's hard To be the lightning in the dark Hold on tight you'll be alright You know it's time Here comes the change We're comin' of age This is not a phase Here comes, here comes, the change Is it a crazy thought? That if I had a child I hope they live to see the day That everyone's equal Oh, it's hard I know it's hard To be the right inside the wrong Hold on tight we'll be alright You know it's time Oh, here comes the change Oh, we're comin' of age This is not a phase Here comes here comes the change Hope there'll come a time when we Where we can live in and die free I hope and pray There'll come the day And it's comin' soon Oh, here comes a change We're comin' of age This is not a phase Here comes, here comes, the change Oh, here comes the change We're comin' of age This is not a phase Here comes, here comes, the change It's time to change We are the change Oh, here comes the change
