Land of Hope
A song made by Music
Oh, they don't see us
Mmm, yeah
Wake up every morning, same fight, same pain
People crying out but nothing ever change
Promises like whispers, disappear like smoke
The ones who took an oath left their people broke
Yeah, they keep talking but the streets still bleed
While the leaders living large, we can barely eat
Generation after generation, losing faith
Telling me to pray while they pocket what we make
In the land of hope, where the hopeless roam
Where the government don't care if we make it home
We keep rising up though they keep us down
Oh, in the land of hope, we won't back down
Baby, we won't back down
Youth are getting restless, fire in their eyes
Tired of the silence, tired of the lies
They say "Wait your turn" but the turn never comes
Mothers crying nightly for their missing sons
Mmm, schools are falling, hospitals are bare
But they build mansions like they just don't care
We deserve better than this empty show
Time to reap the change that we're ready to sow
In the land of hope, where the hopeless roam
Where the government don't care if we make it home
We keep rising up though they keep us down
Oh, in the land of hope, we won't back down
Baby, we won't back down
Come here, listen close now
We're still standing, yeah
Land of hope, oh
