[H.E.R.] Wrote a letter to the mayor Can you hear me out?
Want to talk on all the issues That I care about
Speak free, keep the peace Won't we say it loud?
Meetin' all my people At the city council
Pay attention so I know my rights
Education's gonna change the cycle
Volunteer, I can help a life
Community is planting trees, recycle
If I'm just one person Will my voice even stand out?
Can I make a difference If I don't even know how to change?
I don't even know how to change
We don't even know how to change
I wanna know how to change
Information's all around
Go out and vote 'Cause I know it counts
- Pound the pavement and act now -[clapping]
Make a statement and say it proud
Go from the streets to the Hill Join a campaign
Don't have to wait for someday Just to have change
Know you're never too young To make a difference
You have the power To be an active citizen
If I'm just one person Will my voice even stand out?
Can I make a difference If I don't even know how to change?
- I don’t even know how - To change
We don't even know how to change
- I wanna know how - To change
One day I'll be a leader
Believe that we the people
It's our choice, our voices matter
Make plans and taking action
- I don't even know how - To change
- We don't even know how - To change
- I wanna know how - To change
If I'm just one person Will my voice even stand out?
Can I make a difference If I don't even know how
To change?
- I don't even know how - To change
- We don't even know how - To change
- I wanna know how - To change
