I have already passed N2 exam, but I can't understand this sentence...

> どんなに変わっていこうと笑い飛ばしてよ

Please laugh away by "どんなに Let's change it" ?? It doesn't make much sense??

Can't understand どんなに変わっていこうと笑い飛ばしてよ
I'm assuming this is from L'Arc～en～Ciel's "I'm so happy" lyrics

> どうやら つけが廻ってきたようだ  
>  あるもの全て好きにすればいいさ  
>  それでもあなたよ どうか悲しまないで  
>  **どんなに変わっていこうと笑い飛ばしてよ**

To understand it, I think it would help to include the previous line too. With
this context I would say it means

> But you, don't be sad  
>  **Keep laughing no matter how much things change**

The 変わっていこうと is the volitional form of 変わっていく, but that doesn't necessarily
mean that it means "let's do" something, it can also be used of inanimate
things.  
For example, in the sentence  
`技術がどんなに優れようと、素人は素人に過ぎない`  
`No matter how good their technique is, amateurs are still amateurs`  
the subject is technique.
