25 Ways to Be a Better Person

I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since

But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Cause I don't know what's up there beyond the sky
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will...
