Nothing Stays The Same Forever (#TunesDay 2.0 version)
BuddySings!
Impermanence, that's what this song is all about!
Nothing Stays the Same Forever is an upbeat, fast-paced song that features a rap, being one of the only Buddhist hymns to do so!
The fast pace of the song signifies how nothing stays constant and that change can happen faster than we can adapt. Having a different style (ie. a rap) signifies a change in the style of Buddhist Hymns, and that we should embrace changes, and make changes to improve our lives.

Lyrics
Nothing stays the same forever
Our lives can be something better
Woo~~ Yeah~~
Endings will be new beginnings
There's a time and place for every-
Thing~~ You need to know~~
Truth is we live in this world
Where space and time rules
Our very universe
There’ll be all kinds of moments
On this train of life
That never turns back
All the sceneries before our eyes
Will go through changes
With the seasons
All the people whom we care about
Will never be the same
When we meet again
Oh you know
Nothing stays the same forever
Our lives can be something better
Woo~~ Yeah~~
Endings will be new beginnings
There's a time and place for every-
Thing~~ You need to know~~
Yeah
It's called impermanence, the cycle of rebirth
It’s a part of our lives, so you gotta be prepared
You see the world goes round in the circle of life
Where life and death happen to things we care about
Change can be scary but don't be afraid
As it gives us freedom, it's the wonder of our lives
So embrace your life, accept the changes
With these changes make the world a better place
(Nothing stays forever)
Once you understand this, I think you're ready (Stays forever)
So come hold my hand, and together we will sing (Ohh~)
Nothing stays the same forever
Our lives can be so much better
Woo~~ Yeah~~
Endings will be new beginnings
There's a time and place for every-
Thing~~ You need to know~~ (Yeah)
Woo~~
Woo~~
Woo~~
Yeah Yeah Yeah~~
Woo~~
Woo~~ (C'mon)
Woo~~ (Let's go)
Yeah Yeah Yeah~~
Nothing stays the same forever (Woo~~)
Our lives can be so much better (Woo~~)
Woo~~ (All these changes)
Yeah~~ (It'll happen)
Endings will be new beginnings (Woo~~)
There’s a time and place for every (Woo~~)
Thing~~ (Yeah)
You need to know~~ (You gotta know)
