Change
[Intro: Lupe Fiasco]
So, what;'s it going to be?
L-U-P-E, Joy
C'mon On

[Verse 1: Joy Denalane]
There's so many things to say right now;
I got so much on my mind
Look at what is going down...
How much higher can we climb?
The system that we're living in
Depends on poverty and greed
But people don't need charity;
It's justice that we need
(There's disrepair)
Hey, it's surrounding you And it's worse than it's ever been
(We'll overcome)
We'll overcome the things they do
(We're halfway there)
Cause we know the truth but living is another thing
(We'll overcome)
Overcome the things they do.. Lift your voice and sing

[Bridge: Joy Denalane]
A change is coming our way
Step by step and day by day
We'll live by all that we say
Step by step now come what may
[Verse 2: Lupe Fiasco]
Before we go forth We gotta take 'em back, back
So we can know what we did
Cause if we never know what happened in de past
Then we can never know, that's what it is
If we don't do it for us We gotta do it for our kids, kids
So they don't gotta re-live
See, there's so much happening, it ain't gonna get fix
With singing and rapping and we gotta take action
And turn that preach into practicing
Cause what happen back then, will be right back again
But each one teach one, cause we only as fast
As the last one straggling, so help 'em out

[Hook: Joy Denalane]
(Step by step day by day) Said it won't be long, it won't be long
(Step by step come what may) I feel it coming on strong
(Step by step day by day) We gonna overcome
(Step by step come what may) As long as we are one

[Verse 3: Kanye West]
I'm in the club, doing the same ol' two step
While Omegas doing the same ol' "Q" step (Q!)
I have my money on my mind, I was thinking green
She a pledge A.K.A., she was pink and green
I want a good girl, she want a gentleman (Okay)
We saying the same thing like a synonym
I wasn't really spitting game, I was scrimmaging
My penmanship so hard it need censorship (Woo!)
I'm a Chicagoan 'til Chicago ends (Yeah!)
Till we blow like Chicago wind
I don't know what's better, getting laid or getting paid (Haha)
I just know when I'm getting one, the other's getting away
[Hook: Joy Denalane]
(Step by step day by day) Said it won't be long, it won't be long
(Step by step come what may) I feel it coming on strong
(Step by step day by day) We gonna overcome
(Step by step come what may) As long as we are one

[Verse 4: Pharrell Williams]
Her friends didn't like n***as like us
But I arrested the coochie and her feelings got cuffed
Spider web sex must have got caught up
But there's more to it I remember once
Sayin' "Let's shit on the peons
Let's go to Vegas and watch Celine Dion"
Make 'em say "What we on?"
You say no like you was doin' it for eons
Fuck it I just hum and let the watch give off the neons
When it rains it pours, I laugh to myself when I change the score
You said my sex was a lot but my brain gave you more
And somethin' bout how your ex was a toy, I guess he played games
It's only diamond dice here not tryin' to justify
When you shut your eye you can touch the sky
You in trouble ma, and you should pray about speed
But if that's 'bout you, what that say about me?

[Hook: Joy Denalane]
(Step by step day by day) Said it won't be long, it won't be long
(Step by step come what may) I feel it coming on strong
(Step by step day by day) We gonna overcome
(Step by step come what may) As long as we are one
[Bridge: Joy Denalane]
A change is coming our way
Step by step and day by day
We'll live by all that we say
Step by step now come what may
A change is coming our way
Step by step and day by day
We'll live by all that we say
Step by step now come what may
