Carleen Anderson - Shifting times

Water once ran down the stream
And then a dam was built up
Things are changing it seems
Freedom from ignorance now rise
Learn what you don't know
Give it a try and make it right.

We can't expect to stand still
We're living in shifting times
We're living in shifting times
We're living in shifting times.

Hills leveled down by the plough
People in boxes
Couldn't we turn this around.

We can't expect to stand still
We're living in shifting times
We're living in shifting times
We're living in shifting times.

Open the walls up in China
Let Africa be free
All the slaughter in the wasteland
Countless refugees
We're living in shifting times
One step forward two steps back
Contrary motion
Going backwards across the track.

We can't expect to stand still
We're living in shifting times
We're living in shifting times
We're living in shifting times
Shifting times.
