Sam Cooke A Change Is Gonna Come lyrics

 
I was born by the river in a little tent
Oh and just like the river I've been running ever since
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

It's been too hard living but I'm afraid to die
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
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/sam_cooke/a_change_is_gonna_come.html ]
I go to the movie and I go downtown
Somebody keep telling me don't hang around
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother
And I say brother help me please
But he winds up knocking me
Back down on my knees

Ohhhhhhhhh.....

There been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Sam cooke meant that one day, even through all the racism that he had to live with, all of it will end and everybody, no matter what color, race religion, or whatever; will get along without discrimination. So if you really are racist you need to rethink where you are in life. Where i live black people, part of the many races that i am, are racist against white people. So i get attacked everyday because they say that my behavior is 'white'. The two major people who help me get through this are my brother and mother. My brother is half white but looks white and my mother is over one fourth white. I grew up without a father and eventually i realized that it's not the color of your skin or where your family's from or even where you go to church at, it's the content of your character and that is why i have few friends where i live. Anybody with me on that?

No matter how low you get in your life, there's always the chance and prospect of things turning for the better, as long as you don't give up hope.

I think that the song is showing that through his hard times, racism and frustration, he still has hope that a positive change will come to the world and the way we think. I love the attitude. As alice walker's book title reads "possessing the secret of joy" no matter how difficult the journey.

I think that the meaning of this song is really strong. Everyone should listen to it and understand the trials and tribulations that black people have been through. Me myself am mixed with black and white and i understand both sides. Dont judge people!

It has been a long time coming but a change has come. God has not only brought our race from this but he gave us the courage too live too fight another day too keep our heads held high and proud and now we are able to carry on. My friends it has been a long time coming but that change has come.
