[Verse 1]
Oh, one day I'll be gone
The world'll keep turning
I hope I leave this place
Better than I found it

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it's hard, I know it's hard
To be the lightning in the dark
Hold on tight you'll be alright
You know it's time

[Chorus]
Here comes the change
We're comin' of age
This is not a phase
Here comes, here comes, the change

[Verse 2]
Is it a crazy thought
That if I have a child
I hope they live to see the day
That everyone's equal?

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it's hard, I know it's hard
To be the right inside the wrong
Hold on tight, we'll be alright
You know it's time
[Chorus]
Oh, here comes the change
Oh, we're comin' of age
This is not a phase
Here comes, here comes the change

[Bridge]
Hope there'll come a time when we (time when we)
We can live and die free (and die free)
I hope and pray there'll come the day
And it's comin' soon

[Chorus]
Here comes the change
We're coming of age
This is not a phase
Here comes, here comes
Here comes the change
Oh, we're comin' of age
This is not a phase
Oh, here comes, and here comes the change

[Outro]
It's time to change
We are the change
Oh, here comes the change
