Twenty-five years and my life is still
I'm 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 for 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 going on?

And I sing hey-yeah-yea-eah, eah hey yea yea
I said hey! what's goin' on?
And I sing hey-yeah-yea-eah, eah hey yea yea
I said hey! what's going 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 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 going on?

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I scream What's going on

And I sing hey-yeah-yea-eah, eah hey yea yea
I said hey! what's goin' on?
And I sing hey-yeah-yea-eah, eah hey yea yea
I said hey! what's going on?

Twenty-five years of my life is still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
