 |
| yeah right before my very eyes |
| the world opens up in front of me, |
|
| I remember when; |
| I had peace and harmony, |
| and after troubles so long |
| I find I return, and it finds me. |
|
| ooo, when I go- |
| release all the energy in me. |
| the people give me stress, |
| institutions try to break me. |
| and well I wonder why |
|
| I know that this world's not wanting me. |
| so hear in my mind |
| I act, I rebel, I take what's for me. |
| Oh sometimes I forget, |
| that nothing is ever handed to me. |
|
| No, people like me have to fight for what they want. |
| Oh the world has been set up killin my fathers and what? |
| I cant expect the world to give |
| some of their surplus goods to me. |
|
| But the world opens up in front of me... |
|
| Somedays I find my path and I see: |
| that if I fight hard enough. |
| I can reach the goals in front of me. |
| people may make my road |
| longer than I thought that it would be. |
| well let me tell you so |
| I wont quit, I am fighting here I go. |
| I will never be stopped |
| just slowed, oh a doubt, oh here I go... |
|
| I believe and the world just talks to me, |
| natural wonders and animals they feed me. |
| and I know that the world in itself is not wrong- |
| just the institutions that people create to put you down. |
| those things those untouchable forces of will |
| they make laws and they try to break your will. |
|
| you have to believe cause when its your turn; |
| you'll be able to change every rule, law and word. |
| And now I believe that I can change this world |
| one by one I will reach the hearts in front of me. |
| I teach and I learn and I want to be. |
| I strive, never forget who I am inside of me |
|
| The world opens up in front of me... |
| I wonder, I dream, and I never forget |
| that the deeds of myself will not so soon forget. |
|
| You know I will take what belongs to me. |
| Oh I feel that this world was meant for me. |
| my time here is not wasted |
| I am supposed to be |
| and until I die |
|
| (music) |
|
| I fight on this fight |
| the people and the forces: |
| the buildings, the laws, institutions of- |
| this world, governments, businesses believe they're strong. |
| but each man has a will to change the world. |
| through the people he knows he can mobilize, |
| and if not this whole world |
| he can change that world of his, |
| even if the change is only locally. |
|
| but cha know if it is local, |
| it will be global soon |
| if you can do it in your city, |
| in your schools, in your home. |
| if you do and your neighbors copy you. |
| if you do and their friends they mimic you. |
| they believe and together |
| change comes so slow, |
| but one by one |
| you take steps |
| and you go, oh, oh... |
|
| the world opens up in front of me. |
| by the end of my life |
| this world will be: |
|
| better than the world i arrived in. |
| yes better than world if there was none of me. |
| yes better than before because I choose to believe: |
| that I have a strength that moves mountains, |
| oh I have love that moves people, |
| oh I have a confidence in worlds, |
| oh I have this belief |
| that I'll never stop... |
|
| oh I always believed I would lead them. |
| I always believed some day it'd be my turn. |
| so I watch the people I love |
| and I lead them.... |
