What's wrong, does something look off to you?
Take a look around, and see if there's something you can do.
Can you see all those people lost, alone and afraid?
Then take a deep breath cause this is your cue.
You can be a hero too.
Help out a neighbor, carry something, hold the door,
go the extra mile, give a little smile, show the world that you care.
Be a better friend, don't doubt the love you send
And you're helping some ones broken heart to mend
You are being the change.
You can stop the strife
That piles in the lives of people every where
You can save a life, you can save a soul
You just have to be aware
You can be a hero, you can be a change
People will say you're just a fool to believe you can change the world
Don't listen to them when they say
"You're just a fool to believe you can change the world"
So don't listen when they call you the fool,
Because you're being the change
The world's so big, it can break your heart
And you just want to help, not sure where to start
So you close your eyes
And send up a prayer into the night
So you can make a change
So don't be a fool, be a hero, be the change
Be the change, be the change be the change
Be the change, be the change, be the change
Don't be a fool, you can be a hero too, you can be the change.
Some of the lyrics toward the end are very similar to, and are inspired by, Carrie Underwood's Change.
