Wind of Change

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In the streets of New York City Every man can feel the cold And I don't want no pity But I want my story told [Verse 2] And the lights shine down on me They shine on the little boy Is this the way to make him pay Being born in a world of joy? [Refrain] But like me, he don't know where he'll go wrong He won't cry so many tears Till he finds out why he don't belong But like me, there's no room for us out there You can lose your hope and pride When it comes to broken dreams, you'll get your share [Verse 3] Sometimes A man breaks down And the good things he is looking for Are crushed into the ground [Chorus] Get on up, look around Can't you feel the wind of change? Get on up, taste the air Can't you see the wind of change? [Verse 4] Do you understand what I'm saying? We need a god down here A man to lead us children Take us from the valley of fear [Verse 5] Make the lights shine down on us Show us the road to go Help us survive, make us arrive Teach us what we need to know [Refrain] But like me, he don't know where he'll go wrong He won't cry so many tears Till he finds out why he don't belong But like me, there's no room for us out there You can lose your hope and pride When it comes to broken dreams, you'll get your share [Verse 6] Sometimes A man breaks down, down, down, down, down And the good things he's searching for Are crushed into the ground [Chorus] Get on up, look around Can't you feel the wind of change? Get on up, taste the air Can't you see the wind of change? Get on up, look around Can't you feel the wind of change? Get on up, taste the air Can't you see the wind of change? [Bridge] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [Chorus] Get on up, look around Can't you feel the wind of change? Get on up, taste the air Can't you see the wind of change? Get on up, look around Can't you feel the wind of change? Get on up, taste the air Can't you see the wind of change? Get on up, look around Can't you feel the wind of change? Get on up
