When Seasons Change Songtext
von Curtis Mayfield

When seasons change
And we begin to pass September
A lot of scars that kind of scare you to remember
Scarfing times and seeing people tryin′ to put you down
For goodness sake, people tryin' to take what you know you found
Stranded in someone else′s neighborhood
Listening to the undertone
Lord, sure makes it a blessing to know you got your own

Time make you suffer when seasons change
Can't call no names when you got your own self to blame


I'm praying that Jesus make me a little stronger
So I might live the life a little bit longer
So many changes going in and out of my life
How can anyone survive when everybody′s been made a sacrifice?
Look all around you and see yourself so weak and so vulnerable
So you try to be strong, but your money
Ain′t too long and it's so terrible
Don′t you know if you want a good life, best look into yourself
Because the world is cold and everybody's bold and there′s no one else

Time make you suffer when seasons change
We can't call no names when you got your own self to blame

The strain won′t give me no satisfaction
The taxes are taking up a new collection

So many changes going in and out of my life
How can anyone survive when everybody's been made a sacrifice?

When seasons change and we begin to pass September
A lot of scars that kind of scare you to remember
Scarfing times and seeing people tryin' to put you down
For goodness sake, people tryin′ to take what you know you found

This is not a sad song, only a song of inspiration
And we wish for you long longevity, love
And happiness for the rest of your lives
May God be with you
Thank you for having me
Good night
