N.C.
Mama Mavis, oh
N.C.
Mama, they tried my patience
(G#m) G#m
Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
We mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
(G#m)
They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors
G#m
You say I'm dangerous, I speak for the nameless
G#m
I fly with the vultures, I be with them bangers
G#m
If change don't come, then the change won't come
G#m
If the bands make them dance, then the rain gon' come
[Chorus]
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
Am I passin' into the light?
C#m D#m G#m
Am I looking into mercy's eyes? (Look into your eyes)
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
All the world is out of your hands
C#m D#m G#m
I ascend and another dies (Let me out)
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
You got to die a little
C#m D#m G#m
If you wanna live
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
Change come to pass (Let me out)
C#m D#m G#m
You'd best be ready for it
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
Something I've begun to fear
C#m D#m G#m
Is about to change it all
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in time
C#m D#m G#m
But I won't get tired at all
N.C.
(Let me out, let me out, let me out)
[Verse]
G#m
Look into my eyes, mama, tell me what you see
G#m
Tell me there's a chance for me to make it off the streets
G#m
Tell me that I won't die at the hands of the police
G#m
Promise me I won't outlive my nephew and my niece
G#m
Promise me my pastor isn't lyin' as he preach
G#m
Tell me that they'll listen if it's lessons that I teach
G#m
Tell me there's a heaven in the sky where there is peace
G#m
But until then, I keep my piece in arm's reach
[Chorus]
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
Am I passin' into the light?
C#m D#m G#m
Am I looking into mercy's eyes? (Look into your eyes)
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
All the world is out of your hands
C#m D#m G#m
I ascend and another dies
G#m B/F# E G#m/D#
You got to die a little
C#m D#m G#m
If you wanna live

C#m D#m G#m
(If you wanna live) If you wanna live

Change come to pass
C#m D#m
Oh, a change is comin'
