day 20: hope
by rick chyme and man
intro:
it’s hard to see it when you’re in it, hard to believe it when you are it (x2)
hopelessness (x3)
verse 1:
it seemed any direction she looked there was opportunity to feel hopeless
never considered college before, no horizon
to even think about it, she had never tried it
but recently she’s excelling in most her cl-sses
scholarships came in and she was laughing
at first didn’t seem realistic, then she looked at her gpa and thought
this is something i never thought of myself doing, but the proof is in the pudding
i mean, the facts are right there on the table on the paper it’s printed
if i could put in the work and keep improving, then i could get it
chorus:
keep your head to the sky
it’s hard to see it when you’re in it, hard to believe it when you are it (x3)
verse 2:
she never could have guessed it
dean’s list first semester as a freshman
in-state school breakin’ all the rules and had a scholarship so all she had to pay for
were the living costs which she was gonna have to do anyways after graduating high school
so, she was fine with it
she had a job she loved, worked at the library part-time plus
she was working with a musician locally
promoting shows and putting on night parties, and she was keeping sober
all around she saw these people experimenting and thinking
“how can they survive in the land of the sharks?”
she kept her eyes open, always saw the marks
kept moving, she rarely stayed parked
had great days in the park
just chillin and thinking, looking up
chorus:
you got to keep your head to the sky
keep your head to the sky
push right through, you know you keep grooving
put your head up to the sky and keep moving
push right through, you know you keep grooving
obstacles on the way are gonna come, don’t let them get you down
you gotta jump over them
