Before You Change The World

Before you change the world
Before you change the world
Take a look at what you're planning to destroy
Lord knows it's a mess
How blind can we be?
Life teaches us lessons
We choose not to see

Before you change the world
Before you change the world
Take a look at what you're putting in its place
Lord knows we could use
Some kind of a break
So much is confusion
So much is at stake

But before you close your eyes
And step into the great unknown
Be aware of all the dangers in a change
You make for change's sake alone

Every step you take in the long run
It all depends on you
If the move you make is the wrong one
Be careful when you do

Before you change the world
Before you change the world
Take a look at what you've got, you've got a lot
Lord knows there must be
Some part we can play
If we keep on believing
There's a way

But the right to change the world
Is one that really must be earned
Life can never get much better
If we let ourselves forget the things we've learned
