I like to say my college Is living in this town Some days what seems hardest Is simply sticking around With so much to see Places that I've yet to be
And I like to say my colleague Is the mother at the store The man who serves me coffee And john who lives next door We all study life Learning how to make things right
We wanna change the world We wanna make you proud But lately I've come to learn That it might start here and now Cause sometimes I look too hard at the big things When the best thing I can do is love you
Josue tells me stories about his home down south His mother can't cross the border But he's trying to get her out He names a price And turns so I won't see him cry
People make me hungry But people keep me sane Josue taught me more than a professor could explain About working hard And using what I have to do my part
Cause I wanna change the world I wanna make you proud But lately I've come to learn That it might start here and now Cause sometimes I look to hard at the big things When the best thing I can do is love you
But how do I get to love? I'll start unselfishly Can I hold out my hands Do they even belong to me? How do I get to love? I guess it starts inside of me
Cause sometimes I look too hard at the big things When the best thing I can do is love you
