Change the System

from Bright Side of Life by Rebelution

lyrics

Who's gonna change up the system?
We're gonna change up the system

A man don't know if a man don't show
It takes more than some bravery for the situation grows
Communicate so vital, the whole world at an idle
Lose all your fronts and put down every rifle
It's time for us to see
Time for you and me
Too much greed, while so many bleed
Now that it's been said, put that shit to bed
Break it off, shake it off, take a hit, light it up and cut it
You say you got a feeling to change up the system
Oh we can light the scene, be justice of the peace, create an unseen
Come use your head, we got ten times the power than some gunshots leaving some dead
Listen up, ready gotta make some shit right
We're standing up against the ones who take away lives
I mean it like, who wants to live a life hiding from a war between some 45's
Tryin to survive, common now
How many times you seen a glock used in self-defense?
How 'bout less than 15 percent, so represent, stand up
Do you really wanna own one for the sake of it?
Think about black on black crime, what you think of that?
Poor people struggle everyday and the rich get richer, what a fucked up state
So no more hate
Now let us rise up to the top
We'll spread a little love instead of seeing gunshots
Think quick, don't sit, come get, that's it, make it, commit yourself for a little bit
Oh my, time flies, short life, no cry, one time, kiss the fucking violence goodbye

You say you gotta feelin' to change up the system
You say you're gonna put down your weapon of destruction
You say you gotta feelin' to change up the system
You say you're gonna put down your weapon of destruction

Who's gonna change up the system?
We're gonna change up the system

Well I'll be singing till the day I die
Using words, not the gun, cuz the words show the wise
On the side, it's the bullet I despise
Forget your fucking clip, stop
Shouldn't even be there to buy
How many heads have got their morals tied up in a knot?
They forgot firing shots means a lot, naughty naught
Killin' some is ending plots
And the dreams of children growing up are cut short from the gat
Do you really wanna own one for the sake of it?
Think about PEACE, don't you know there's a hope for that?
And while we struggle everyday
Remember that LOVE starts with a passion to pursue fighting hate

You say you gotta feelin' to change up the system
You say you're gonna put down your weapon of destruction
You say you gotta feelin' to change up the system
You say you're gonna put down your weapon of destruction

Who's gonna change up the system?

A man don't know if a man don't show
It takes more than some bravery for the situation grows
Communicate so vital, the whole world at an idle
Lose all your fronts and put down every rifle
It's time for us to see
Time for you and me
Too much greed, while so many bleed
Now that it's been said, put that shit to bed
Break it off, shake it off, take a hit, light it up and cut it

You say you gotta feelin' to change up the system
You say you're gonna put down your weapon of destruction
You say you gotta feelin' to change up the system
You say you're gonna put down your weapon of destruction

Who's gonna change up the system?
Who's gonna change it up?
