lyrics

I was born into a made world
Made into a part that takes what it's made to take
Nothing more and nothing less, no
Never spoken out loud, not to be second-guessed

Well I have seen how it lives in me
And I have to do better
I have a responsibility
To make sure I remember

Changes, I've got to make
Can't take it halfway
There's a fire, sun in the sky
And smoke in the
Summertime, summertime, summertime
Summertime, summertime, summertime

I can't sit in silence
Hide myself in my skin, staying oblivious
Just take some risk, a small price
To be on the right side fighting a better fight

Well I have seen there's some good in me
And I have to do better
I have opportunities
To trade my hope for effort

Changes, I've got to make
No dreaming of someday
There's a fire, sun in the sky
And smoke in the
Summertime, summertime, summertime
Summertime, summertime, summertime

Keep looking, keep looking all around
Say something, do something please right now
There's a fire, there's a fire

Fire, sun in the sky, and smoke in the
There's a fire, there's a fire
There's a fire, there's a fire
