This is a song I wrote about the feeling that we're finally seeing racial justice issues getting the attention they deserve in America and that some things may actually change for the better.

lyrics

[verse 1]
A change is coming
I feel it in the air
It's everywhere
Can you feel it?

[verse 2]
This time is different
And everything's in play
It's a brand new day
The sun is shining

[chorus]
Oh, it's time for us to rise
Oh, They can't hold back the tide

[verse 3]
Our eyes are open
We can't ignore the past
There's no turning back
We're moving on

[chorus]
Oh, it's time for us to rise
Oh, They can't hold back the tide

[bridge]
We need a change
I feel the change is coming

[chorus]
Oh, it's time for us to rise
Oh, They can't hold back the tide
