Be The Change (The Shelter)

Every day, you say, "I will make a better world"

Life is not a fairy tale, no, not for boys and girls

We got to

Stop the talking, got to get down

Stop the talking, got to get down

Intentions only take you far

When you're on the road

Don't wait around for people to

Do what you should do

You got to

Stop the talking, got to get down

Stop the talking, got to get down

So, be the change, so, be the shelter

So, be the one who's standin' up when they're lookin' at ya

So, be the change, so, be the shelter

Don't be tomorrow, waitin' for the day to pass ya

A heavy heart can slow you down

When you're not aware

Clear the spaces in your mind

Stop to breathe the air

Lay a brick day by day

Build your house of love

Show that there's a better way

To help us rise above

You got to

Stop the talking, got to get down

Stop the talking, got to get down

So, be the change, so, be the shelter

So, be the one who's standin' up when they're lookin' at ya

So, be the change, so, be the shelter

Don't be tomorrow, waitin' for the day to pass ya

If not now, then when?

Just begin

If not now, then when?

So, be the change, so, be the shelter

So, be the one who's standin' up when they're lookin' at ya

So, be the change, so, be the shelter

Don't be tomorrow, waitin' for the day to pass ya
