Lyrics
Living too fast
Living at a rapid pace
Moments don't last
Short-lived experiences
What are we doing here?
Questioning the purpose of existence
Too distracted to react
Too preoccupied to respond
Busy lives guided by fear
Busy lives driven by fear
I think it's time that we all slow down
Advocating for a collective slowdown
And take a long look around
Encouraging reflection on surroundings
There's so much pride and so much fighting
Observing excessive pride and conflict
Why we always gotta be right?
Questioning the need to always be right
So much emotion in a passing feeling
Acknowledging intense emotions in fleeting moments
So many things inside our minds
Recognizing the complexity of thoughts
I think it's time that we all slow down
Reiterating the call for a collective slowdown
And take a long look around
Encouraging a prolonged observation of life
'Cause we need to change,
Expressing the need for change
Change
Emphasizing the importance of change
We can
Indicating the possibility of change
Change
Repeating the call for change
Change
Affirming the need for change
We all need to take a minute
Highlighting the necessity to pause and reflect
To stop and listen
Encouraging attentive listening
To the words that are slipping out of our mouths
Stressing the importance of mindful speech
Should never be a limit to love
Advocating for limitless love
Whether you give it,
Whether giving love
You live without it,
Living without love
or you've given up
Or having abandoned love
Just love yourself and everybody else
Encouraging self-love and universal love
'Cause every soul is made the same
Affirming the commonality of every soul
And if you don't feel the same way
Respecting diverse perspectives
It's not too late to
Expressing it's not too late to change
Change,
Reiterating the need for change
(We can) change
Highlighting the possibility of change
We can change
Reinforcing the idea of change
(What's it gonna take to) change
Prompting a question about what it takes to change
What's it gonna take?
Persisting in asking what is needed for change
Who ya gonna blame
Addressing the lack of external saviors
When no one comes to save you?
Prompting introspection on responsibility
What's it gonna take?
Repeating the question of what it takes to change
Who ya gonna blame
Reiterating the lack of external saviors
When no one comes to save you?
Repeating the question of what it takes to change
What's it gonna take x9
