His old man was a rebel yeller
Bad boy to the bone
He'd say Can't trust that other fella
He'd judge 'em by the tone of their skin
He was raised to think like his Dad
Narrow mind full of hate
On the road to no where fast
Till the Grace of God got in the way
Then he saw the Light an' hit his knees an' cried an' said a prayer
Rose up a brand new man left the old one right there
Here's to the strong thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope some people change
Against all odds, against the grain
Love finds a way some people change
She was born with her mother's habit
You could say It's in her blood
She hates that she's gotta have it
As she fills her glass up
An she'd love to kill that bottle
But all she can think about
Is a, a better life, a second chance
An' everyone she's letting down
She throws that bottle down
Here's to the strong thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope some people change
Against all odds, against the grain
Love finds a way some people change
Thank God for those who make it
Let them be the Light
Let them be the light
Some people change
Here's to the strong thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope some people change
Against all odds, against the grain
Love finds a way some people change
Some people change
Some people change
