Arlon Bennett - "Be The Change"

To honor those marching yesterday for the cause of humanity:


"A woman stepped on the bus 
like any one of us 
After a hard workin’ day 
She walked halfway back 
To a seat marked for blacks 
and took her place 
She was someone who 
Really understood 
How a law could be a crime 
When she wouldn’t give her seat 
to a white man on his feet 
yea, it was time to 

CHORUS 
Be the change you want to see around you 
Be the right in a world of wrong 
Be the one, the one to make a difference 
Be the change 
Be the change 

Many years before 
Another place another war 
In a struggle to be free 
A wise barefoot man 
had his own plan 
To fight the enemy 
He said it makes no sense 
To use violence 
As a means to an end 
We must rise above 
What they would do to us 
Or we become like them 

CHORUS 

It’s the pull of a lever 
It’s the sound of your voice 
It’s now or never 
It’s a choice 
To, 

CHORUS"
