So welcome to the world
Got so much I can tell you baby
So many lessons to learn
Let me tell you WHAT I've heard
Because people can be cruel
And the world is full of rules
That's when you need to call me
When the struggle gets you down
And there's no one else around
That's when you need to call me
Oh you'll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can't do it
I'll make you better than that
Don't be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you're through with it
I know you're better than that
I still believe
That THIS world is a good place baby
For every vulture and thief
Kindness in every stranger
When it's slipping through your hands
AND you do not understand
That's when you need to call me
When you cannot carry on
When you feel like hope is gone
That's when you can call me
Oh you'll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can't do it
I'll make you better than that
Don't be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you're through with it
I know you're better than that
Welcome to the world
Got so much I can tell you baby
So many lessons to learn
Let me tell you WHAT I've heard
The road is long, so just hang on
It's gonna be alright
I'll make you better than that
The road is long, so keep your faith
When your zero has come
It's gonna be alright
(And you'll be judged
on who you love
the color of your skin)
The road is long, just hang on
It's gonna be alright
Oh you'll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can't do it
I'll make you better than that
Don't be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you're through with it
I know you're better than that
Oh you'll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can't do it
I'll make you better than that
Don't be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you're through with it
I know you're better than that
