25 years I'm alive here 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 of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means


Chorus:
'N so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed

Just to get it all out what's in my head
'N I, I'm feeling a little peculiar
'N so I wake in the morning and I step outside

'N I take a deep breath
'N I get real high
'N I scream from the top of my lungs

What's goin' on
And I say hey-ey-ey... (jodel-di-dodel...)
And I said hey what's going on

And I say hey... etc. (uh! uu-uuhu-huhuuuu...)
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 ev'ry single day
For a revolution


(Chorus)


25 years I'm alive here still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
