25 years and my life is still
 Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
 For a destination

I realized quickly when I knew I should
 That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
 For whatever that means

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
 Just to get it all out, what's in my head
 And I, I am feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
 And I take deep breath and I get real high
 And I scream from the top of my lungs
 What's goin' on?

And I say hey, hey
 I said hey, what's goin' on?
 And I say hey, hey
 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

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in my bed
 Just to get it all out, what's in my head
 And I, I am feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
 And I take a deep breath and I get real high
 And I scream from the top of my lungs
 What's goin' on?

And I say hey, hey
 I said hey, what's goin' on?
 And I say hey, hey
 I said hey, what's goin' on?

And I say hey, hey
 I said hey, what's goin' on?
 And I say hey, hey
 I said hey, what's goin' on?

25 years and my life is still
 Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
 For a destination
