CHORUS
G D
I feel a change, it's true

I feel a change is coming for me & you
G D
& though the path may be hard
Em C
it's a journey we must start
G D
It must start in your Heart with Love
Em C
& the Faith we can rise above
G D
& in our Souls with the Peace

No more judging the colors of our skin

we've learned true colors are found within

No more casualties of greed

shutdown the secret prisons of torture

No more invasions based on lies

bring our heroes home with their heads held high

VERSE 2[same as above]
No more mountaintops removed
we want it green & clean because oil is crude
No more frankenseeds or food shipped from overseas
Local Farms harvest security
No more leaders will we elect
who let a city drown in their neglect
No more payoffs on Wallstreet
No more layoffs on Mainstreet
No more foreclosing the American Dream

What began as a whisper
has now swelled into a chorus
that cannot be ignored
it will ring out across this land
as a hymn to heal this nation
and repair this world
