Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, listen, listen, listen) It's all about to change, yeah (Yeah) London, yeah, listen (Woo, woo!) From West Kent to West Coast, to LA Yeah, with Thayod beats bumpin' everyday Listen, yeah, yeah Start wildin' [Verse 1] Listen, all I need is one microphone to one mic standees alone It's through this medium, I speak my mind Though I'm takin' everyday as blessed and everyday as dope Whether I'm wakin' up smilin' or I'm tired 'til the mornin' I have to keep it movin', I have to keep my shit correct 'Member all the things you said I wouldn't get? Got it, yeah? Sing it [Pre-Chorus] Why is everybody so envious? Because she in the West plannin' on takin' over the rest You'd be hard-pressed to find another girl like me Changed the style a few times, I hold it down right, you see? From the bottom spittin', trust Believe me when I say that The revolution started bridgin' It's here to stay, bruv (Tell the world) [Chorus] Change is comin', shouldn't be the one that's found that You know you see the signs, you better get your act right (Tell the world) Change is comin', shouldn't be the one that's found that (Yeah) You know you see the signs, you better get your act right [Verse 2] Stand up and be counted You need to keep your head from out the mountains Just for all my people strugglin' to count some housin' Designed to keep you in tact, hustlin' to pay your rent (Then what?) They tell you that you can buy it then pile it at your expense So when you try and get help, they're gonna tell you to cross Charge ya all the way, entire too, you're always at a loss You're stuck between a rock and coldest trenches One heart is the other No escape for my little cousins and brothers It's time to change the way your life goes, right? From the age of thirteen, you got the choices you all like Don't let the past rule you (Uh-uh), choose your own rule too It's somethin' you know what I'm sayin' It's somethin' that you should do, this is true, listen (Tell the world) [Chorus] Change is comin', shouldn't be the one that's found that You know you see the signs, you better get your act right (Yeah, yeah, Tell the world) Change is comin', shouldn't be the one that's found that You know you see the signs, you better get your act right [Verse 3] So now there's planes hittin' buildings, fire in the sky Lord, help the children, tell them not to cry Please give me another try, keep my heart right Lord, I need wisdom, teach me how to write Write to change lives, I'ma keep on steppin' Let my footprints show a little piece of heaven I'm strivin' to reach the seven on this route To keep my family fed and people out the jail, listen [Bridge] To all of your drama (All of your drama) And all of your pain (And your pain) If you keep on pressing (Come on, uh) You'll see what's to gain (See this) Said nothin' is promised (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah) To anything, but one thing is set down and that is change (Tell the world) [Chorus] Change is comin', shouldn't be the one that's found that (Shouldn't be, no) You know you see the signs (You can see it), you better get your act right (You better get it right, tell the world) Change is comin', shouldn't be the one that's found that (You shouldn't be, no) You know you see the signs, you better get your act right (Get it right) [Outro] Get it right, get it right, listen (Get it right, get it right) See, North London, yo, West London Yeah, East London, South London Great Britain, come on, come on (Get it right, get it right) You're the soul queen! NY, NY, Philly, Philly, LA, say what? Yeah, Africa (Africa), come on, yeah, what, ha, yeah Say this that EST, come on E, now we're dropping it, ha, ha You ready? You ready? (Tell the world)
