What's Up

I ask a favor for my sex

All I ask from our brother

Is that they keep their feet off our necks

25 years and my life is still

Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope

For a destination

I realized quickly when I knew I should

The world was made up of this brotherhood of man

For whatever that's worth

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed

Just to get it all out what's in my head

And I feel 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?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-yeah

Said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-yay

Say "Hey, what's going on?"

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

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed

Just to get it all out, what's in my head

And I feel 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?"

And I said, hey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-yeah

Said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-yeah

Hey-ey-yeah

Said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey

(And so I wake in the morning and I step outside)

Hey-ey-ey

(Take a deep breath and I get real high)

(And I scream)

Said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey

(Wake in the morning and step outside)

Hey-ey, yeah yeah yeah

(Take a deep breath and I get real high)

(And I scream)

Said "Hey, what's going on?"

25 years and my life is still

Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope

For this destination
