"Change" lyrics - KIERRA SHEARD

Ooh, it's gotta change, it's gotta change
Ooh, it's gotta change, it's gotta change

In the streets, some sell their body to get money
Gangstas play those things that are dirty
Selling rocks as the clock tic tocs
Even got our kids doing it
What a shame just for playing the game
Young women wanna be what they see on TV
Not knowing what it takes to be
'Cause you're better than that
You gotta know that's a fact
You don't belong in the game
I think it's time for a change

(Chorus:]
Change, it's gotta change, it's gotta change
You know a change is gonna come
Situations gotta get better, better
Change, it's gotta change, it's gotta change
You know a change is gonna come
Situations gotta get better, better

I'm not perfect but it just ain't the way
Killing each other like everyday
One of my homies was locked up and shot up
(C'mon y'all, we can't give up!)
We need some leaders, not followers in our home
So we can change 'cause I don't know what's really going
So throw your hands in the air if you believe me
Let me hear you scream you know we need a change

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
You know one day soon we will be changed
No more crying, no more dying
We won't feel pain
We'll love one another
Share our hopes and share our dreams
One another
And be pleasing to our father if we...

[Chorus]
