Today - Patrice

I will change the world today

I don’t care what the people say

There’s a brighter day to come

Cause I’m a rebel, I kill the devil

I was so close to resigning

Saying fuck the world and just move to an island

All of these people seek dem neon enlightenments

We are blinded

World leaders too money minded

(But then)

Music is my mission and jah works my assignement

I come from Iceland, Freetown salon, land of diamonds

We’re pushing stones bigger than a girl in the 9th month

See Americans ah turn the world in a timebomb

We ain’t got no hoods, we have real slums

Where ten year olds have you leaving

On two hands with two stumps

And no clothes and no funds

I was deep down in a hole giving up my life once

So insecure I couldn’t even see the sky once

So my energy would grow out of silence

How you gonna change the world?

I will change it with my hands

We haffi response before the rivers run dry

And the stars fall from the sky these days

Love is just a word but I will try and

I will change the world today

I don’t care what the people say

There’s a brighter day to come

Cause I’m a rebel, I kill the devil

I will change the world today

I’m gonna pave the way

For a brighter day to come

Cause I’m a rebel, I kill the devil

I failed, I lied, betrayed, got played

Was scared, was blind, not straight, had hate

Gone astray, was lost, was vain, loved fame

But my strength of today lays in yesterday’s pain

I stole, was sold, was bold, I chilled

I killed, I fell, I rose, you know

I’ve lost a fight before

But I won’t lose the war

I will change the world today

I don’t care what the people say

There’s a brighter day to come

Cause I’m a rebel, I kill the devil

This ain’t about the bad ones, it’s about the one who no care

Who’s too fat to be bothered, too lazy and scared

To whom changing this world, would mean send his world to hell

And destroy an illusion, that served him so well, yeah

Good things never come easy, start with reflection of self

To some this might sound cheesy, but the truth afi tell, yeah

Some caught up in survival, think it’s them that need help, yeah

You never know that material, 'could never be wealth, yeah

I will change the world today

I don’t care what the people say

There’s a brighter day to come

Cause I’m a rebel, I kill the devil

I will change the world today

I’m gonna pave the way

For a brighter day to come

Cause I’m a rebel, I kill the devil
