(L)
He’s eleven years old and he can’t read, but know every song on the radio
Ask him bout what his dreams are and you will see that (?) took to what he sees on BET
But I know what you’re thinking, wait just let me finish
He’s been a victim of a crime lead by Politian
We can’t stand back and watch another suffer
Got to stand up a fight the system and teach your brother…
(C)
Throw your hands up if you fear the world
Throw your hands up if it’s time to make a move
Throw your hands up if stop talking and show them
Throw your hands up cause we got a job to do
It’s time for a change; we can’t keep it the same
We got to step up our game (step your game up)
It’s time for a change; we got to lift up His name
We can’t be ashamed
(Repeat)
(L)
Fourteen years old no self-esteem, comparing her body to magazine
She sits adjusted from boys at school, them tell she cure try to make a move
No father at home to tell her she beautiful, momma’s working late just to keep the frigid full
Nine months later Tina’s got a baby push her left the church ain’t been to search lately…
(C)
Throw your hands up if you fear the world
Throw your hands up if it’s time to make a move
Throw your hands up if stop talking and show them
Throw your hands up cause we got a job to do
It’s time for a change; we can’t keep it the same
We got to step up our game (step your game up)
It’s time for a change; we got to lift up His name
We can’t be ashamed (don’t be ashamed)
(Repeat)
(Chris)
Listen, it’s time to make a change lets step on the front line
Give them there souls what they need, foods for there hearts now
They talk about preaching it, and teaching the word
But we hesitate to hit the streets to give them the word
So it’s time the switch the game up lets lift more of His name up
The world need us and united we stand up
I’m talking to the Christians, lets change and complete the mission
That reaching the lost that what I call soul fishing
(C)
It’s time for a change; we can’t keep it the same
We got to step up our game (step your game up)
It’s time for a change; we got to lift up His name
We can’t be ashamed (don’t be ashamed)
(Repeat)
