Me and my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing
These's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it
I and I waiting I've been waiting
Waiting for the world to change
Waiting waiting
Waiting for the world to change for the world to change
It's so hard to beat the system
When you stand at a distance
So we keep on waiting For the world to change
If we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They ‘d never miss Christmas
No more ribbons on their door For the world to change
But if you trust disja damn television set
What you get is what you got
Cause when they get the information you oooh
They can bend it how they want
[Refrain]
We've been waiting I've been waiting
Waiting for the world to change
Waiting, Waiting
Waiting for the world to change For the world to change
It's not that we don't care
It's just that dija fight ain't no fair
So we keep on waiting For the world to change
R.E.U.B. good book gimme the good word
I spit it to my man told him take a seat in church
And quit sittin on your hands cause hands ain't meant to sit on
And life ain ‘t made to live wrong women teach the baby
Papa make the baby get strong!
Waiting for a change I'm overwhelmed by the nonsense
But if I change myself I change the world in the process
So if I don't like it I change it, but I saying if I can I change my attitude Dawg
I stop complaining why fight the man who can't think outside the box
I invite him in my box now we don't even have the box
Waiting for the truth waiting in lines waiting forever
Waiting to meet our soul mates then waiting together
R.E.U.B ya maan that's another Dellé speaking
Frank and Reub cousins and brothers
The Dellé family there'll never be another
Family thing this!
