Testo There's Hope

Testo There's Hope

Back when I had a little,

I thought that I needed alot.

A little was overrated,

But alot was a little too complicated.


See: Zero didn't satisfy me,

A million didn't make me happy,

That's when I learned the lesson

That it's all about your perceptions.



Hey, are you a popper or a superstar?

So you act, So you feel, So you are.

It ain't about the size of your car,

It's about the size of the faith in your heart.



Chorus:

There's hope,

It doesn't cost a thing to smile,

You don't have to pay to laugh,

You better thanks God for that.

(Repeat)



Up in the back country of Brazil,

I met a young brother that made me feel

That I could accomplish anything

You see, just like me he wanted to sing



He had no windows and no doors,

Lived a simple life and was extremely poor

On top of that he had no eyesight

But that didn't keep him from seeing the light.



He siad: "What's it like in the USA?"

And all I did was complain.

He said: "Living here is paradise."

He taught me paradise is in your mind.



Chrous



Every time I turn on the tv(there's hope

Somebody's acting crazy (there's hope)

Let it, it'll drive you crazy (there's hope)

But I'm taking back my power today(there's hope)

Gas prices, they keep on rising(there's hope)

The government, they keep on lying,

But we gotta keep on surviving,

Keep living our truth and do the best we can do, cause there's hope.



Chorus

(repeat)



Stand up for your rights

keep shining your light

and show the world your smile



Chorus

(repeat)
