I was walkinâ down the street 
In the town where I was born 
I was movinâ to a beat 
That Iâd never felt before 
So I opened up my eyes 
And I took a look around 
I saw it written âcross the sky 
The revolution starts now 
Yeah, the revolution starts now 
The revolution starts now 
When you rise above your fear 
And tear the walls around you down 
The revolution starts here 
Where you work and where you play 
Where you lay your money down 
What you do and what you say 
The revolution starts now 
Yeah the revolution starts now 
Yeah the revolution starts now 
In your own backyard 
In your own hometown 
So what you doinâ standinâ around? 
Just follow your heart 
The revolution starts now 
Last night I had a dream 
That the world had turned around 
And all our hopes had come to be 
And the people gathered âround 
They all brought what they could bring 
And nobody went without 
And I learned a song to sing 
The revolution starts now
