I never saw the profit I never saw the means But I can see the faces and there living in my dreams You people make the moment You people turn the tide This is the reason that we're here and still alive Yeah it's about time It's about time It's about time We wrote this song for you It's about time It's about time It's about time We wrote this song for you I could not see the future I could not see the change But I can see the reason and it's staring in my face You people sing the sorrow You people change the view Make the connection cause You bleed for us and we bleed for you Yeah it's about time It's about time It's about time We wrote this song for you It's about time It's about time It's about time We wrote this song for you For you we take the burden And for you we take the pain For you we learn the lesson And for you we fan the flames For you we sing the sorrow And for you we come alive For you we tip the scales And for you we turned the tide This is for all those who live down in the basement And this is for all those who are trapped underneath the pavement And this is for all those still believing after all these years And this is for all those who are still standing after the smoke clears This song is for you Yeah it's about time It's about time It's about time We wrote this song for you It's about time It's about time It's about time We wrote this song for you It's about time We wrote this song for you
