lyrics

You’ve got to rise to the occasion
no incident will release the friction
I promise you can change your mind, promise me that you’ll try

‘Cause you’re blessed with the power of metaphor
and its just the want of change it takes to unlock the door
Choose your direction and step forward

I promise you can change your mind
I promise you can change your mind
I promise you can change your mind

Habits create lasting changes
Best make a habit out of self-education
I promise you can change my mind, promise me that you’ll try

I promise you can change your mind
I promise you can change your mind
I promise you can change your mind

I dream of a wide open world
Where every human being has everything it needs
and no more war
There’s no more need for “-isms”
and no more tunnel vision
and peace is sure.
There’s no more shameful silence
and no more need for violence
because at its core
there’s no distrustful factions
and no more calls to action
an open world

You’ve got to rise up
greet the brand new day
You don’t know what’s changed
since you’ve been away
Now its “come-what-may”
