i woke up and cried

still w my same squad
came to turn the place
on ice like a face off
something’s gotta change huh

staring at the same sky
with the same two eyes
that i had my whole life
i just hope they see more

then what’s here
cause sometimes
it can make the soul cry
when I can’t see no light
reminded I’m a gold mine

they keep telling more lies
trying to demoralize
waiting on the sunrise
no woman no cry

my my my my
Trying to hold tight while hands on time
slipping by by by by
But the futures looking bright
if you open up your eyes

Hey, it’s a beautiful day
Don’t you wait for a lifetime
To watch it all slip away
And I said

Hey, keep your head up babe
Take a walk on the wildside
Let your heart lead the way
Let your heart say (hey)

there’s a place for people like you and me
where the living comes easy and the loving is free
and there’s no limitations on what you can be
Still we struggle for a peace of mind
It’s hard to see between the lines

paint like im Van Gogh
Head with a halo
still chasing rainbows
But don’t forget the raincoat

born into a broken home
It turnt me a rolling stone
i can’t judge to each is own
whatever keeps you keeping on

my my my my my
tryna hold tight while hands on time
passing by by by
But the futures looking bright
If you open up your eyes

Hey, it’s a beautiful day
Don’t you wait for a lifetime
To watch it all slip away
And I said

Hey, keep your head up babe
Take a walk on the wildside
Let your heart lead the way
Let your heart say (hey)
