Waiting for Change

The days are short and the nights are long

These are cold and bitter times

Politicians doin' people wrong

Only trying to divide

When I look at what is going on

This state of worry just ain't right

I'm tired of wishing this could all be gone

And praying for a turn of tide

So that's why I (that's why I)

I'm not gonna sit around and wait

For a good thing (for a good thing)

To come along my way

'Cause you know we ('cause you know we)

Are not promised tomorrow, just today

So I (so I)

I'm done waiting for change

Well it's true it's never ideal

To be running against the wind

So many choose to lie and steal

Hoping they can get ahead

In this broken world sometimes it feels

So damn hard to find a friend

Oh, that's why we gotta fight for love and keep it real

That's what matters in the end

So that's why I (that's why I)

I'm not gonna sit around and wait

For a good thing (for a good thing)

To come along my way

'Cause you know we ('cause you know we)

Are not promised tomorrow, just today

So I (so I)

I'm done waiting for change

So don't be afraid to take a stand

It's better to lose than to give in, yeah oh

Because we're only given just one chance

To live the life we wanna live

So that's why I (that's why I)

I'm not gonna sit around and wait

For a good thing (for a good thing)

To come along my way

'Cause you know we ('cause you know we)

Are not promised tomorrow, just today

So I (so I)

I'm done waiting for change

Don't you know we

Are not promised tomorrow, just today

So I, I'm done waiting for change
