Turning quickly, hand over hand, the clock is ticking, time is moving fast
Reviewing all the lessons we have learned, from the mistakes lost in the past
Miscommunication leading us into a place where there lies strife
Why do we still tolerate, the things like greed and hate that rule this life
When
We can change the world, we can change the world
We can change its course, within a single generation
Standing up for freedom, spreading hope, nation to nation
We can change the world, we can change the world
It doesn't have to be the way it is, or how it's been
Instead of looking out we need to turn and look within
We can change the world
I dream of a world where peace is king, and all good things are in supply
Reaching to the heavens, hands up high, I do my best to grasp the sky
Observation, education, inspiration, revolutionize
A new beginning comes as we embrace, love without compromise
Then we can change the world, we can change the world
We can change its course, within a single generation
Standing up for freedom, spreading hope, nation to nation
We can change the world, we can change the world
It doesn't have to be the way it is, or how it's been
Instead of looking out we need to turn and look within
We can change the world
