SONG LYRICS AND POETRY
"Change the Day"

Alex MacDougall

Today is not like yesterday
Everything has changed
So it is written
That before there is a shift
In our collective consciousness
To a higher vibration
There will be chaos and upheaval in the world
Like raining terror from the skies
Much of our primitive civilization is ruled by fear
In minds like the ones

(Chorus)

Who would change the world in a day
Unlike any other day
Let us open our hearts
To open the ways
To bring peace to the world someday
Bring peace to the world someday
Love, is the only way
Is more than a cliche
It spells our survival
In this physical realm
It's important to tell
Sisters and brothers
There is no one chosen people
Nor is there inherent evil in any one soul
The truth is
We've forgotten our connection to each other
This separation is the root cause of events

(Chorus)

That would change the world in a day
Unlike any other day
Let us open our hearts
To open the ways
To bring peace to the world someday
Bring peace to the world some day
The message is still the same as it was whenever
There has been a need for unity
We've forgotten our connection to each other
This separation is the root cause of events

(Chorus)
