Lirik
25 years of my life and still I’m trying to get up that great big hill of hopeFor a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should That theworld was made up of this Brotherhood of man For whatever thatmeans
So I cry somethimes when I’m lying in bed To get it all out what’s in myhead Then I start feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morningand I step Outside I take deep breath I get real high Then I screamfrom the top of my lungs
What’s goin’ on And I say hey… And I say hey what’s goin’ on And I sayhey… I said hey what’s goin’ on
And I try, oh my God do I try I try all the time In this institution And I pray,oh my God do I pray I pray every single day For a revolution
So I cry sometimes when I’m lying in my bed To get it all out what’s in myhead Then I start feeling a little peculiar So I wake in the morningand I step outside I take a deep breaththen I get real high Then Iscream from the top of my lungs
What’s goin’ on And I say hey… And I say hey what’s goin’ on And I sayhey… I said hey what’s goin’ on And I say hey… And I say heywhat’s goin’ on And I say hey… I said hey what’s goin’ on
25 years of my life and still I’m trying to get up that great big hill of hopeFor a destination
