lyrics
"Small Deeds, Big Change"
Red skies, charred ground,
Hope fades, fear abounds,
(With these "helpless hands")
Loud cries,
Silent leaders,
Climate change disbelievers,
(With these "helpless hands")
As i watch the flames from a distance, how can I help?
(With these "helpless hands")
As I stare at the screen, I whisper, what can I do?
I can step up,
I can reach out,
I can be the change I want to see,
I can stand up,
I can shout out (hey!)
I can be a voice for those in need,
I can dig deep,
I can create,
Help restore our broken lands,
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
Ohh oh whoa oh, ohh oh whoa oh, ohh oh whoa oh,
Ohh, with these "helpless hands"
I can step up,
I can reach out,
I can be the change I want to see,
I can stand up,
I can shout out (hey!)
I can be a voice for those in need,
I can dig deep,
I can create,
Help restore our broken lands,
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
As I watch the pain from a distance, how can I help?
(With these "helpless hands")
As I stare at the screen, I whisper, what can I do?
I can step up (up!)
I can reach out (out!)
I can be the change I want to see,
I can stand up (up!)
I can shout out (hey!)
I can be a voice for those in need,
I can dig deep,
I can create,
Help restore our broken lands,
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
I can step up (up!)
I can reach out (out!)
I can be the change I want to see,
I can stand up (up!)
I can shout out (hey!)
I can be a voice for those in need,
I can dig deep,
I can create,
Help restore our broken lands,
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands"
Yeah! Small deeds make big change,
With these "helpless hands" (hey!)
