Be The Change

from Turtle Shell Sessions by Prosad Freeman

about

The lyrics in this song speak for themselves, but the message that I wanted to convey is that we have the power to affect change in the world. The world is filled with chaos and abuse of power, but rather than be angry, we can simply decide to change ourselves - when we all make changes to ourselves and to our consciousness, the whole world will change. As a result of this dramatic shift in consciousness an old system that no longer serves us will no longer be able to survive.

We can change the old negative system, by creating a new, positive one. And how do we do this? By changing ourselves. Each tree must be healthy for the forest to be green, the power of one becomes the power of many when each one does his or her part. That is this power of unity that can change the world - it is love. "Be the change you want to see in the world" - Mahatma Gandhi

lyrics

Be the Change

I know about the problems
Corruption and deceit
Said I know about the system
Controlled by the elite
Said they control the money
They own the media
The bankers bought the governments
Now they want to buy and sell us
They want to buy and sell us

We can be, we can be
The change we want to see

Destroying our planet
For Money and for greed
It's time that we stop taking
Use only what we need
Got to learn learn from Aboriginal cultures
See how they respect the land
Live Sustainably with nature
I tell you it's a better plan
I tell you it's a better plan

We can be, we can be
The change we want to see

For the forest to be green
Takes every tree within
If we to beat the system
This is how we're gonna win
Don't wait we can do it ourselves
But we got change the way we live
We the people have the real power
We've got to love, it's time to give
We've got to love, it's time to give

We can be, we can be
The change we want to see
