Title: “Catalyst of Change”

Full song lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Em C
Wandering in a city of dreams
G D
Caught up in a world of extremes
Em C
Lost in thought, riding on beams
G D
Awaiting the dawn’s first gleam

[Chorus]
Em C
We are the Catalyst of Change
G D
In this life, love’s the only range
Em C
In the mirror, we’re never strange
G D
We are the Catalyst of Change

[Verse 2]
Em C
Through the shadows we dance
G D
Given life’s stage a glance
Em C
In the spotlight, we enhance
G D
The rhythm of life’s romance

[Chorus]
Em C
We are the Catalyst of Change
G D
In this life, love’s the only range
Em C
In the mirror, we’re never strange
G D
We are the Catalyst of Change
