Triston Harper H.o.p.e.
[Verse 1]
Well, I've seen the pain
And I've seen the sorrow
Well, I witness it every single day
It kind of makes me wish that there isn't a tomorrow
'Cause I've heard all the lies, back to back
Over and over again
[Pre-Chorus]
But it don't ever end
No, it won't ever end
[Chorus]
Hope stands for hold on, pain ends
Where's the joy when you need it?
It makes you wanna get down on your knees and cry
But crying don't make it end
So why do you keep doing it?
I've asked myself about a hundred thousand times
He said, "How long 'til you give up, quit, and just lay down and die?"
[Verse 2]
Well, I promise you, you can make it
Out here in this world
You ain't always gotta live it
Oh, if a boy or a girl
You ain't gotta have a lot of money
Because the real church is buried deep in your soul
You're always at war with somebody
He's always telling you to give up and let go
[Chorus]
Hope stands for hold on, pain ends
Where's the joy when you need it?
It makes you wanna get down on your knees and cry
But crying don't make it end
So why do you keep doing it?
I've asked myself about a hundred thousand times
He said, "How long 'til you give up, quit, and just lay down and die?"
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
But crying don't make it end
So why do you keep doing it?
I've asked myself about a hundred thousand times
He said, "How long 'til you give up, quit, and just lay down and die?"
[Outro]
Mm
