His Old man was a rebel yeller
Bad Boy to the bone, He'd say
"You can't trust that other feller"
He'd judge 'em by the tone
Of their skin

He was raised to think like his dad
Narrow minded, full of hate
Until the grace of God got in the way
He hit his knees, said a prayer
Rose up a brand new man,
And left the old one right there

Chorus:
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
Guess you could say its in her blood
She hates that she's gotta have it
As she fills the glass up

All she can think about is
A better life, a second chance,
And all the ones she's lettin' down
She throws that bottle down

Chorus:
Here's to the strong, thanks to the brave
Don't give up hope, Some people change
Against all odds, against the grain
Don't give up hope, Some people change

Thank God for those who make it
Some People Change

Chorus:
Here's to the strong, thanks to the brave
Don't Give up hope, Some people change
Against all odds, against the grain
Don't give up hope some people change
