No Excuse Against Change Lyrics

Today the light doesn't seem to shine

As bright as it did in that old time,

When we were wild, young, and free,

Untouched by life's harsh destiny.

It feels like the world's rearranged,

Or maybe we changed, and didn't see,

But things are definitely not the same,

As they were back when we ran carefree.

We must accept that all things shift,

We must accept that time will drift,

But we can't just stand and wait in line,

While life moves on, leaving us behind.

There's no excuse not to adapt,

Oh oh, staying still gets you trapped,

You miss the chance to see tomorrow's dawn,

Oh oh, 'cause those who don't move, are gone.

No excuse to stay the same,

Oh oh, if you don't swim, you'll sink in shame,

Everyone must face their own path,

No hiding from the weight life casts.

We used to dream with open eyes,

Now we're bound by time's disguise,

Chasing what we thought we'd find,

But leaving pieces of ourselves behind.

And though the world is still turning,

It's clear we must keep on learning,

To evolve, to rise, and to survive,

Only change keeps us alive.

We must accept the shifting sands,

We must accept what life demands,

But we can't stand still, we must proceed,

Or we'll be swept by time's swift speed.

There's no excuse not to adapt,

Oh oh, staying still gets you trapped,

You miss the chance to see tomorrow's dawn,

Oh oh, 'cause those who don't move, are gone.

No excuse to stay the same,

Oh oh, if you don't swim, you'll sink in shame,

Everyone must face their own path,

No hiding from the weight life casts.

There's no excuse not to adapt,

Oh oh, staying still gets you trapped,

You miss the chance to see tomorrow's dawn,

Oh oh, 'cause those who don't move, are gone.

No excuse to stay the same,

Oh oh, if you don't swim, you'll sink in shame,

Everyone must face their own path,

No hiding from the weight life casts.

So push ahead, don't look behind,

Embrace the change and free your mind,

The world may shift, but so can we,

To find our place, and truly be.
