Im Hoping

lyrics by: Kieran Johnston
Written on Jun 05, 2018

Sick of everyone just 
Sick of your nonsense
Sick of everyone’s opinion about what’s wrong or right
Tired of all the hate around
Just because of differences 
That we cannot change

Now my mouth will be quiet
Now I’m going down
Just to have a little quiet
And just hope for the best

Now my eyes are open wide
I won’t sit waiting for them
To suck up their pride

I’m hoping for a better leader
I’m hoping they do not hate
I’m hoping they don’t see colour as a tag
Love a sign
Gender as a role
I’m hoping for a better world

They got the world on lockdown
So no new thought are let to light
As it well damage the great glass ceiling keeping everyone at bay
There’s people starving
Whilst other feast
There’s an old man sitting in his white housing
praying that people will keep their eyes shut
He’s in control of this world

Why are these miners mining?
Just to stay alive
Why are we told from a young age
Stay in the lane, you won’t get hurt
If you’re gonna break the rules
You’re gonna get abused

Now my eyes are open wide
I won’t sit waiting for them
To suck up their pride

I’m hoping for a better leader
I’m hoping they do not hate
I’m hoping they don’t see colour as a tag
Love a sign
Gender as a role
I’m hoping for a better world

I’m hoping for a better leader
I’m hoping they do not hate
I’m hoping they don’t see colour as a tag
Love a sign
Gender as a role
I’m hoping for a better world

They got the world on lockdown
So no new thought are let to light
As it’ll damage the great glass ceiling keeping everyone at bay
There’s people starving
Whilst other feast
There’s an old man sitting in his white housing
praying that people will keep their eyes shut
He’s in control of this world
