Waiting on the World to Change Taj Mahal & Keb' Mo

Me and 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 on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

It's hard to be persistent
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep on waiting, yeah
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would've 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
