[Verse 1]
I hate change, but I've come of age
Think I'm finally finding my way
Danced with chaos every occasion
Looks me up every day
Even when I'm tired and low
There is gold in this river that is carrying me home

[Chorus]
Newspaper says the world's on fire
People yelling and the water's rising
It's easy to feel kinda anxious
Yeah, we've thought it was the end of time
We're still holding on and we're still trying
Life's always been a little dangerous
But I don't wanna stay thе same, so

[Post-Chorus]
I'm tryna keep up with the changes
I'm tryna keep up with thе changes

[Verse 2]
Was a baby during the L.A. riots
And I've seen cities burn again
Cried for the innocent a thousand times
And people still don't understand
What it's like to hope again and again
Knowing that heartache's gonna be there till the end
[Chorus]
Newspaper says the world's on fire
People yelling and the water's rising
It's easy to feel kinda anxious
Yeah, we've thought it was the end of time
We're still holding on and we're still trying
Life's always been a little dangerous
But I don't wanna stay the same, so

[Post-Chorus]
I'm tryna keep up with the changes
I'm tryna keep up with the changes
