There was a kid who was raised by television.
|
Had an alcoholic father who died from bad decisions.
|
He swore he'd never drink so he'd never end up like him.
|
He didn't know his father cause he couldn't break the cycle.
|
|
There was a kid who grew up in a trailer.
|
His mother worked so hard but still she felt like such a failure.
|
He swore he'd make it out & when he did he'd come & get her.
|
He'd pack up all her things so she could live a little better.
|
|
There was a kid who had goals & bigger dreams
|
Headed in the wrong direction looking for a different scene.
|
Trying to find another kid who's clinging to a rope.
|
So he taught himself to sing but all he found was hope.
|
|
Sing a song of hope
|
Sing a song of hope
|
It's all I really know
|
Sing a song of hope
|
|
"hope means you really want someone to come back"
