When Seasons Change - Curtis Mayfield

When seasons change and we’ve again surpassed September

A lot of scars that kind of scare you to remember

Scufflin' times in seeing people trying to put you down

For goodness sakes

People trying to take what you know you’ve found

Stranded in someone else’s neighborhood

Listening to the undertone

Lord!

Sure makes it a blessing to know you got your own

Time makes you suffer when seasons change

Can’t call no names when you got your own self to blame

Praying to 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 and see yourself so weak and so vulnerable

So you’re trying 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

'Cause the world is cold and everybody’s bold

And there’s no one else

Time makes you suffer when seasons change

Can’t call no names

When you got your own self to blame

Strain won’t give me no satisfaction

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’ve again surpassed September

A lot of scars that kind of scare you to remember

Scuf flin' times in seeing people trying to put you down

For goodness sakes

People trying to take what you know you’ve found
