Music by melanie thornton and todd chisolm   Lyrics by melanie thornton         Chorus:   It's alright, everything is gonna be alright   It's alright, everything is gonna be alright      Verse 1:   When I think about life   Something creeps in my mind   Saying, "it's time for a change"   Pointin' fingers, no doubt   I'm just wasting my time   Looking for someone to blame   For all the hate and abuse   How can I face the truth   If I don't open my eyes   And let it get to me, and get to you   Let's come together and start a new      Bridge:   If we try, make a change   We'll survive and then we can say   It's gonna be alright      Chorus      Verse 2:   It's just a matter of time   Can't ignore all the signs   Gotta do what ever it takes   Teach the children at home   Before they're out on their own   And making the same mistakes   The time is tickin' away   We gotta start today   And try to make it right   So let it get to me and get to you   If we come together, how can we lose      Bridge:   If we fall on our knees   And pray, we've got to believe   It's gonna be alright      Chorus      Breakdown:   It's alright, it's alright, everything is gonna be alright      Chorus
