The World I Knew

[Instrumental] [Verse] I was just a child, innocent and free The world around me, a mystery But as I grew, I began to see How things were changing, gradually [Verse 2] I used to dream of endless skies, Where birds would soar and dreams would rise But now it seems the stars are dimming, And all around, the world is brimming [Chorus] The world is shifting, it's changing fast As time goes by, it won't be the same in the past And as I grow, I can't help but feel The world I knew, is slowly becoming surreal [Verse 3] I remember when, the trees were green The sky was clear, and the air was clean But now the trees, they're slowly dying The sky is gray, and the air is frying [Chorus] The world is shifting, it's changing fast As time goes by, it won't be the same in the past And as I grow, I can't help but feel The world I knew, is slowly becoming surreal Every day's a struggle, every night's a fight But I'll keep believing, in the power of light [Bridge] It's not too late, to make a change We need to act, before it's too late Let's make a stand, and hold our ground [Bridge] It's not too late, to make a change We need to act, before it's too late Let's make a stand, and hold our ground Ooh-ohh [Chorus] The world is shifting, it's changing fast As time goes by, it won't be the same in the past And as I grow, I can't help but feel The world I knew, is slowly becoming surreal Every day's a struggle, every night's a fight But I'll keep believing, in the power of light The world I knew Ooh-ooh [Outro] As I look ahead, to what's in store I'll do my part, and I'll do it more For the child in me, and the world we share Let's make it better, for those who care The world I knew Ohh-ooh
