Jojo The Change

Taking little time to satiate fans’ demands for more, genre-crossing vocalist JoJo, has dropped yet another single. The piece, entitled, “The Change”, comes only five months after the May release of her most recent album, Good to Know. The pop-adjacent singer eschews her standard of infectious modern production, in favour of a slow-burning ballad.

A sombre piano chord progression wrestles with a growing drum accompaniment to best establish a frame for JoJo’s piercing vocals. Subtle choral backings aid in emphasizing the triumphant, epiphanous tone.

Despite already being a certified platinum artist, JoJo was further boosted into the public eye when “The Change” was announced as The Biden/Harris campaign’s official anthem.

“I am honored and humbled that Joe Biden has chosen to feature my song ‘The Change’ as part of the Get Out the Vote effort in this critical election,” JoJo’s collaborator, Diane Warren, said in regard to the announcement.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m not gonna blame, put the blame on nobody
All that’s gonna get me, is get me nowhere
I’m just gonna look, gonna look in the mirror
And start there

[Chorus]
I’m gonna be the change
I’m gonna start with my heart
I’m gonna be the light, be that light, my own light
That lights my way through the dark
I’m gonna see that day, change is gonna find me
But it’s up to me, up to me, all on me
To make that change inside me
So I’m gonna be the change, change, change
I’m gonna be the change, change, change
I’m gonna be the change, change, change

[Verse 2]
I’m not gonna make, gonna make no excuses
I’m not gonna waste no more time being blind
‘Cause there ain’t no world, ain’t no world that I’m changing
If I don’t change mine
I’m gonna stand a little taller
Hold my head a little higher
Raise my voice a little louder
It’s time

[Chorus]
I’m gonna be the change
I’m gonna start with my heart
I’m gonna be the light, be that light, my own light
That lights my way through the dark
I’m gonna see that day, change is gonna find me
But it’s up to me, up to me, all on me
To make that change inside me
I’m gonna be the change (Change, ooh)

[Bridge]
I can feel a fire is starting, nothing’s gonna put it out
It’s like this moment’s waited for me and
And it’s mine now

[Chorus]
I’m gonna be the change
Gonna start with my heart
Gonna be the light, be that light, my own light
That lights my way through the dark
I’m gonna see that day, change is gonna find me
But it’s up to me, up to me, all on me
To make that change inside me
I’m gonna be the change, change, change
I’m gonna be the change, change, change
I’m gonna be the change, change, change
Ooh

[Post-Chorus]
I’m gonna be the change, change, change
I’m gonna be the change, change, change
