Verse 

Em 
I need a change, it’s evident 
C 
A transformation imminent 
Em                                     C 
A chance for my soul’s intelligence to redefine lines of indifference 
Em 
I ride past the spirit with the well scratched pad 
C 
Always looking at my poetry for the reasons I had 
Em 
Never stopped and let someone else take the wheel 
C 
Now I’m in the backseat like "what the fuck is real?" 
Em 
Got to bury the hatchet, bones no casket 
C 
The dead don’t dance to a liars message 
Em 
So restless, cross it off my checklist 
C 
Poetical warfare, a bear with horse hair 
Em 
He’s reckless, acts like he’s got a deathwish 
C 
True hey hoka, tricking the trickster 
Em 
Laws of nature, loyal creature 
C                                          Em 
Son of the most high, willing to wager my plan 


And Imma stick to it 
C 
And ultimately liberate my consciousness 
Em 
I want the change 
C            Em    C 
I will make a change

G              Am              Em                 D 
If I make it out alive, I’ll see you on the other side 
G                 Am       Em                D 
If the sacrifice I owe is the reason that I die 
G                Am           Em                      D 
And I know this too shall pass, so I put it in the past 
G                         Am       Em                   D 
And of all the things I fear, it isn’t now and it isn’t here 
Em               C      Em          C 
I’ll make a change, I will make a change 


Verse 

Em 
Well it comes at a cost, and that’s obvious 
C 
My list of distractions is infinite 
Em 
My delusions of grandeur are all equipped 
C 
With dark lords, back doors, and some wizard shit 
Em 
Well I did not know they were gonna choose me 
C 
And I oughta take myself more seriously 
Em 
Cause what comes through me no it ain’t no trick 
C 
And I know that all of us are born with different gifts, so 
Em 
Lift yourself from darkness take a couple steps back 
C 
On an abstract attack I fell beneath the cracks 
Em 
I didn’t come here to drone out and drag my feet 
C 
Stand in quicksand both hands and accept defeat 
Em 
I got work to do, let me get back at it 
C 
The clock is tickin’, I can hear it through the static 
Em 
Now I’m not being dramatic, enemies don’t sleep 
C 
In fact some aren’t human and that’s hard to believe 
Em 
Cause I’m such a visual person, my third eye don’t lie 
C 
He’s a wise guy inside, even fooled himself twice 
Em 
Thinking maybe I’m not ready to be leading the way 
C 
I mean fuck, I’m only human, bound to make some mistakes 
Em                          
An earthquake took place within my lifetime of fear 
C 
I hear this too shall pass, the beginning is near 
Em 
I want the change 
C              Em 
I will make a change

Verse 

C 
I wanna walk in righteousness 
Em 
But I keep tripping over ditches of my selfishness 
C 
I wanna pass a fist to a pacifist 
Em 
I keep beating round the bush instead of facing it 
Em 
So I’m facing it, some gladiator shit 
C 
Yeah i’m rippin' over rhythms and I’m healin' it 
Em 
But it’s non-stop knocks from the mountain top, 
C 
to the city block. to the tanks: stop and block 
Em 
Another brother got shot dead on the sidewalk 
C 
While the cops doing inside jobs and I'm shocked 
Em 
So my hands are stretched out to the sky 
C 
Got some poems in my left and a gun in my right 
Em 
And my eyes’ll cry over bulletproof pride 
C 
Cause I know I didn’t come to make it out alive 
Em 
And I thrive in the midst of a battle 
C 
Front lines you can see me in the struggle 
Em 
These are the songs of a walk towards revival 
C 
Even brave men can put down their rifles 
Em 
I got my orders, and Imma follow them 
C 
You can find me kickin´ back inside the lion’s den 
Em 
I’m making friends and amends with some evil men 
C 
Gonna bring them in and inject them with the medicine 
Em 
Imma do no harm, but I’m a take no shit 
C 
And I’m a build a bridge out of the emptiness 
Em                         C 
And then potentially well Imma live to be the hardest working bear in the fucking industry 
C            Em 
I will make a change 
C            Em 
I will make a change 
C            Em 
I will make a change
