The Battles A Change Is Gonna Come
Mo:
I was born by the river in a little tent
And just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gon' come
Diamond:
It's been too hard living, oh yeah yeah, but I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know, I know a change gon' come, oh yes
Mo:
So, then I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help, help me, please."
Diamond:
But he winds up knockin' me, back me down,
Back down on my knees, oh
Mo vs Diamond:
There been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
Diamond:
And now I think I'm able to carry on
Mo vs Diamond:
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gon' come, oh yes, it will
