Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Someone says, wake up child
Don't throw your life away
See you in the crime file
What will your mother say
[Verse 2]
Sometimes you get angry
No focus on your life
When people get hungry
They learn how to survive
[Verse 3]
Changing every day (Changing every day)
Changing every day
I said we're changing every day (Changing every day)
Changing every day
[Verse 4]
Summer Syncopation
The space between your eyes
Is a place for heroes
That never compromise
[Verse 5]
Someone  you feel lonely
No focus or surprise
Pushed into production
What a way to live our lives
[Verse 6]
Changing every day (Changing every day)
Changing every day
I said we're changing every day (Changing every day)
Changing every day
[Verse 7]
Changing every day (Changing every day)
Changing every day
I said we're changing every day (Changing every day)
Changing every day
[Verse 8]
Changing every day
Changing every day
Changing every day
Changing every day
...
