[Verse 1]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
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
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
[Interlude]
Ooh, Ooh Ooh
Ooh, Ooh Ooh
[Verse 2]
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 every single day
For a revolution
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
and I - I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
and I take a deep breath and I get real high and
I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey Heyeyey"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I said "Heyeyeyeyey HeyeYEYEYE"
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
[Interlude]
Ooh, Ooh Ooh
[Outro]
Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
