I Know I Been Changed

[Chorus: Keedron Bryant]

I know I been changed (Know I been changed)

I know I been changed (Know I been changed)

I know I been changed

You know the angels in Heaven done signed my name, well

[Verse 1: Symba]

Well, tell me what are we supposed to do?

We've been marching instead of shooting since Martin Luther

Our necks been in nooses that's never loosened

Our freedom seems elusive, we're due for a revolution

Can't find a single solution within this crooked constitution, well

It hasn't been that long since you acknowledged me as a human

Three-fifths can't compromise or demoralize our contributions

You call us thugs and gangsters to justify when you shoot us

Well, everything you say I am, you about to turn me into it, yeah

[Verse 2: Keedron Bryant]

Well, you don't believe that I been redeemed

You know the angels in Heaven done signed my name

Well, follow me down to that old Jordan stream

You know the angels in Heaven done signed my name

[Chorus: Keedron Bryant]

I know I been changed

You know that

I know I been changed

Good Lord, yeah

I know I been changed

You know the angels in Heaven done signed my name, well

[Verse 3: Symba]

You see, riots ain't changing rules and looting's not changing laws

Marches ain't helping shit 'cause they fight us with firearms

So maybe we should go get a license to fire ours

And turn the gangsters and the mob to a ghetto National Guard

We pressing all oppressors that stretch us 'cause it's their job

To detect us by complexion and strip us from who we are

If I pulled a gun on you and you aim one back at my dome

And we shot at the same time whose side would God be on? Man

[Chorus: Keedron Bryant]

I know I been changed

You know that

I know I been changed

Good Lord, yeah

I know I been changed

You know the angels in Heaven done signed my name

[Outro: Keedron Bryant]

Amen
