It's the shape of things to come, it's that moment in the sun
It's the wild and reckless turning of the tide
Sure as every shout begins with a whisper in the wind
Can't deny it's quite a time to be alive
It's the changing of the guard, it's the calm before the storm
At the crossroads when you're forced to draw the line
Give some love and take a stand cause the future's in your hands
Starting once a upon a time to be alive

It's the sound of the alarm, it's the push against the grain
It's the single rebel candle that ignites a million flames
It's an ocean overflowing flooding when the levee breaks
It's when you say the sky's the limit when the ground is giving way

It's the riots in the streets, it's a war you wage for peace
It's the opposition's brazen battle cry
Through the widening divide where alliances collide
Fighting blindly for a time to be alive
It's the blazin' path you pave with each turning of a page
It's the moral of a story gone awry
It's the poetry of truth, it's a song that sings the blues
Playing softly for a time to be alive

It's the tolling of the bell, it's an echo loud and clear
It's the shackles 'round your ankles, it's the flowers in your hair
It's a floor plan for destruction, it's a road map toward repair
It's what appears along a highway leading anywhere but here

It's the progress through the cracks in a ceiling made of glass
It's a finger on the button, say goodbye
It's the anger in the crowd when they burn the cities down
In the ashes of a time to be alive
It's the point of no return, it's the lessons that you learn
It's the flags or gods or facts you stand behind
Bridge a gap or build a wall, some will rise and some will fall
Either way, oh what a time to be alive!
With our weary heads held high as we face an uphill climb
Better keep on keeping on 'cause a change is gonna come
Sing it loud, oh what a time to be alive!
