iris dement - workin' on a world lyrics
[verse 1]
i got so down and troubled
i nearly lost my head
i started wakin’ every morning
filled with sadness, fear and dread
the world i took for granted
was crashing to the ground
and i realized i might not live long enough
to ever see it turn around
[verse 2]
oh, but then i got to thinkin’
of the ones who came before
of all the sacrifices that they made
to open up so many doors
doors i got to walk through
on streets paved for me
by people who were workin’ on a world
they never got to see
[chorus]
now i’m workin’ on a world i may never see
i’m joinin’ forces with thе warriors of love
who came beforе and will follow you and me
i get up in the mornin’ knowing i’m privileged just to be
workin’ on a world i may never see
[verse 3]
i don’t have all the answers
to the troubles of the day
but neither did all our ancestors
and they persevered anyway
when i see a little baby
reaching out its arms to me
i remember why i’m workin’ on a world
i may never see
[chorus]
i’m workin’ on a world i may never see
joinin’ forces with the warriors of love
who came before and will follow you and me
i get up in the mornin’ knowing i’m privileged just to be
workin’ on a world i may never see
i’m workin’ on a world i may never see
