Me and all my friends We're all misunderstood They say we stand for nothing and There's no way we ever could
Now we see everything that's going wrong With the world and those who lead it We just feel like we don't have the means To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
It's hard to beat the system When we're standing at a distance So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change
Now if we had the power To bring our neighbors home from war They would have never missed a Christmas No more ribbons on their door And when you trust your television What you get is what you got Cause when they own the information, oh They can bend it all they want
That's why we're waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
It's not that we don't care, We just know that the fight ain't fair So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
And we're still waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting waiting on the world to change One day our generation Is gonna rule the population So we keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change
