Change Lyrics

Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And gonna set you free
Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And it is gonna set you free

The car stalls at the side of the road
Don't know if I'll make it home again
Well I know if you tried something new
You can win this little heart of mine

And didn't it feel right to scream?
And didn't it good to walk away?
And didn't it feel right to scream, "it's bullshit"?
And didn't it good to walk away?

Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And gonna set you free
Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And it is gonna set you free

The bright lights might have all been a lie
It must have been some kind of dream
Well I was thinking about our fight
I know there's more than one way to love me

Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And gonna set you free
Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And it is gonna set you
Change is gonna come

And didn't it feel right to scream, "it's bullshit"?
And didn't it good to walk away?

Change is gonna come

Everyone Needs an Editor

Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And gonna set you free
Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And it is gonna set you free

The car stalls at the side of the road
Don't know if I'll make it home again
Well I know if you tried something new
You can win this little heart of mine

And didn't it feel right to scream?
And didn't it good to walk away?
And didn't it feel right to scream, "it's bullshit"?
And didn't it good to walk away?

Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And gonna set you free
Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And it is gonna set you free

The bright lights might have all been a lie
It must have been some kind of dream
Well I was thinking about our fight
I know there's more than one way to love me

Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And gonna set you free
Change is gonna come
You better welcome it
Change is gonna come
And it is gonna set you
Change is gonna come

And didn't it feel right to scream, "it's bullshit"?
And didn't it good to walk away?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
