You are going to have to sand it. If the texture is very fine, then just change the color, and if you want a vast change then you have to sand it (fine sand paper if the texture is fine and a higher grit of sand paper if the texture is quite deep.) If you can't be bothered doing this then you'll have to take the wall down and wall-board it. The other option you have (I'd do this if the texture is deep) is plastering the wall and this is only meant if there are rough swirls on the wall.
