Is it just me or is the world going crazy lately?
What's going on?
Can we not see the way we're evolving, changing?
Something's going wrong.
Every other day it's the same old story,
broken record on repeat.
Another man dies and a child goes
hungry while my brothers cry for peace.
Here's another war song for the poor,
singing freedom isn't free.
How can my heart not beat for these?
How can my heart not bleed for these?
Love called and asked about us,
said she'd wondered where we'd gone.
She's been lonely without us,
she wants us to come back home.
And don't you miss the way it used to be for you and me,
well won't you please
answer her call with me and say,
hey love we're on the way.
Oh we've been gone for way too long.
Hey love we're on the way.
I feel a change is coming on.
And if you're ready,
follow me.
And we'll be the change we wanna see.
Or
is it far too late and are we too far gone?
In Africa,
medical teams are spraying bombs on the ground,
laser guided bombs.
Maybe I'm numb to the news of violence,
I just send another prayer.
Maybe we're used to this or clueless,
or is it nobody cares?
Cause every other day it's another
killing and our children have to pay.
We act like if we ignore it,
maybe it'll go away.
No I'm not a superhero,
I just wanna save the day.
I can't pretend everything's okay,
can't pretend everything's okay.

It's just coming on.
And if you're ready, follow me.
And we'll be the change we wanna see.
Or is it far too late
and are we too far gone?
The world won't change,
no the world won't change till we try.
Till we try.
Or is it far too late and are we too far gone?
