🎶 A Change Is Gonna Come song analysis
This song is about the protagonist's struggle in life and how she feels like she has been running and facing obstacles since she was born. She talks about how hard it is to live, but she is afraid to die because she doesn't know what's beyond the sky. She asks her brother for help, but he can't, so she gets on her knees and cries. Even though she had to cry and give up sometimes, she believes that a change will come and she can keep going.
