South Gotta Change

You've been running from the ghost You keep it hidden in your past The veil before your face is falling, and it's falling fast I won't go blindly in the night I would drag you to the light I stood up to the mountain Told the mountain, "Say my name" And if you're tired of walking Let the children lead the way 'Cause I love you, I won't leave you Won't let you slip away Come what may We're gonna find a way The South gotta change The South gotta change You've told a lie for so long You're a stranger to yourself You're all dressed up in make-believe To be somebody else So listen closely when I sing That the truth would set you free I stood up to the mountain Told the mountain, "Say my name" And if you're tired of walking Let the children lead the way 'Cause I love you, I won't leave you Won't let you slip away Come what may We're gonna find a way The South gotta change The South gotta change Change Change It ain't no clean play to make up Man would squarely hear this pain We still fall in power, let him Hide from what he is ashamed But your walls are falling down So you gotta face me now I stood up to the mountain Told the mountain, "Say my name" And if you're tired of walking Let the children lead the way 'Cause I love you, I won't leave you Won't let you slip away Come what may We're gonna find a way I stood up to the mountain Told the mountain, "Say my name" And if you're tired of walking Let the children lead the way 'Cause I love you, I won't leave you Won't let you slip away Come what may We're gonna find a way The South gotta change Change Oh it gotta change Just gotta change, just gotta change Just gotta change, it's gotta change It's gotta change
