Revolution


Why is it the darkest nights always make the stars so bright?
Why's it take a sacrifice to say someone deserves a life?
Why is it the smallest voice has to make the loudest noise?
How long you gonna make the choice to see the fire and just ignore it?

Wasn't born so brave, I was born too late
To really make a difference

I'm a revolution, I'm a revolution
I won't deny it
I'm just trying to make it better
I'm a revolution, I'm a revolution
I'm tired of fighting
But I'm not sure I can do it on my own

It only tak?s a single step
At the start of ?very thousand miles
See the sun, but you're not there yet
And you can see the blue skies ahead

If I don't embrace the hopeless hope of change
I'll never make a difference

I'm a revolution, I'm a revolution
I won't deny it
I'm just trying to make it better
I'm a revolution, I'm a revolution
I'm tired of fighting
But I'm not sure I can do it on my own

They call this house a home, I move alone and switch my energies
I conquer and defeat, 'cause I'm a king, destroy my enemies
No treaties, squashing beef, you wave a white flag, then you really weak (Weak)
Ain't no peace until the semi squeeze
Begging, Lord forgive me, please
Yeah, we sinning but we winning
Get diverted judgment from the pigment in our skin
They say that two wrongs don't make a right
So every day of my life a n**** gotta fight

Darling, I'm a revolution
I'll go down in evolution
'Round and 'round in resolution
Darling, I'm a revolution
Won't be perfect execution
'Round and 'round 'til we improve it

I'm a revolution, I'm a revolution
I won't deny it
I'm just trying to make it better
I'm a revolution, I'm a revolution
I'm tired of fighting
But I'm not sure I can do it on my own
Though I'm not sure, though I'm not sure I can do it
Though I'm not sure I can do it on my own

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
