Cal the Rapper - Change Is

Life
Is all about changes man
All the fuckin time life be throwin you a hook
And it doesn't matter how you feel
Just how you look at the problem that's in front of you
And sometimes you just gotta sit back and read it like a book
Change will happen and you might feel confused like "GOD, WHY ME?"
You shout at the roof
But it all happens for you to improve and grow stronger like an old tree root
Most of the time, it's for better Might be hard to see through stormy weather
I sent you a letter
Oh wait, you don't remember?
Cause you tried to kill the sender cause you felt a little pressure
Change is required for you to grow
I know the pain ain't desired but it gave you hope
Cause the rain put the fire inside your soul
And it came from the choir within my throat
Change is required for you to grow
I know the pain ain't desired but it gave you hope
Cause the rain put the fire inside your soul
And it came from the choir within my throat
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
Long time ago around the age of seven
First major change I remember everything was different
And we sold so much including the house then we went to live with our grandma
Lived in her basement for a little bit cause we had nowhere else to go
This is it
Dad got a job so far away
Bout twelve hundred miles had to drive for days
We waited on him to find a place that we could live in
No time to waste
Had to change schools to one we didn't pay
Had to get ready for when we all came
I went out there with my grandma earlier than the rest of my family
I don't think it was long, they were coming soon
I was there without them for about two weeks
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
I was fourteen at the time we figured out that somethin wasn't right
Why everyday since the age of four I was having sleepless nights
It was cause I had this disease called Celiac
Had it all my life
Didn't know about it and because of that I'm fucked up all the time
There was one time in eighth grade where my leg gave out and it fuckin hurt
Runnin around inside that day for recess then I collapsed like dirt
Cried so much cause of all the pain then I had my mom come get me here
Took me back home, on the couch I layed. With pressure, it'd bring me to tears
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
All the fuckin time life be throwin you a hook
And it doesn't matter how you feel
Just how you look at the problem that's in front of you
And sometimes you just gotta sit back and read it like a book
Change will happen and you might feel confused like "GOD, WHY ME?"
You shout at the roof
But it all happens for you to improve and grow stronger like an old tree root
Most of the time, it's for better Might be hard to see through stormy weather
I sent you a letter. Oh wait, you don't remember?
Cause you tried to kill the sender cause you felt a little pressure
Change is required for you to grow
I know the pain ain't desired but it gave you hope
Cause the rain put the fire inside your soul
And it came from the choir within my throat
Change is required for you to grow
I know the pain ain't desired but it gave you hope
Cause the rain put the fire inside your soul
And it came from the choir within my throat
Bout a year ago, my parents got divorced
They sold the house and we downsized more
I quit my job to move and now I'm poor, but it's all up now, gonna make big score
Livin in the middle of nowhere with my dad and a real close friend, it's not that bad
We have no plumbing, we go out for that
Our power comes from a generator in the back
This is just one minor setback
A small cabin, some might call a shack
400 square feet so we built a rack to hold more stuff cause we got a lot of crap
Didn't stop me from goin for my dreams cause I got a great team thats small but elite
Can't quit now cause I don't know how I'm gonna live without getting my goals crowned
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
It's inevitable, you're eligible for change to come but to some it's not pleasurable
All the fuckin time life be throwin you a hook
And it doesn't matter how you feel
Just how you look at the problem that's in front of you
And sometimes you just gotta sit back and read it like a book
Change will happen and you might feel confused like "GOD, WHY ME?"
You shout at the roof
But it all happens for you to improve and grow stronger like an old tree root
Most of the time, it's for better Might be hard to see through stormy weather
I sent you a letter
Oh wait, you don't remember?
Cause you tried to kill the sender cause you felt a little pressure
Change is required for you to grow
I know the pain ain't desired but it gave you hope
Cause the rain put the fire inside your soul
And it came from the choir within my throat
Change is required for you to grow
I know the pain ain't desired but it gave you hope
