HAVE HOPE AND SIMPLY PRAY
THE NIGHT WAS LATE:
HE FELT SO MUCH HATE:
THEN HE HAD A DEBATE:
WHY SHOULD HE WAIT:
WHY SHOULD HE LIVE:
HE FELT NOTHING TO GIVE:
THEN HE TOOK A KNIFE TO END IT ALL:
THEN HE MADE THE FINAL FALL:
WHY DO PEOPLE GO TO SUCH EXTREMES:
WHAT REALLY DOES IT MEAN:
TO FEEL SO DOWN AND SO LOW:
THEY FEEL NO WHERE THEY CAN GO:
I HERE ABOUT THEM EVERYDAY:
GOD THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY:
PEOPLE GET SO DOWN ON LIFE:
THEY FEEL SO MUCH DESPAIR AND STRIFE:
THE SUN CAN BE UP BUT THEY FEEL DOWN:
TO THEM NO SUNSHINE AROUND:
THEY TURN TO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL:
AND THEN THEY MAKE THE FINAL FALL:
FOR SOMEONE TO TAKE THERE OWN LIFE IN VAIN:
IT IS SUCH A SHAME:
I COULD NEVER DO THAT ON ANY DAY:
WE'LL PEOPLE THEY CANT REALLY SAY:
JUST KEEP HOPE AND FAITH AND ALWAYS PRAY:
AND THEN I JUST KNOW YOU WILL BE OKAY:
IF SOMEONE YOU SEE IS DOWN OR LOW:
GIVE THEM YOUR HAND SHOW THEM THE WAY TO GO:
NO ONE REALLY KNOWS ALL WHAT PEOPLE FACE:
DONT EVER JUDGE SOMEONE IN HASTE:
LIFE IS PURE AND PRECIOUS TOO:
TRY TO HELP SOMEONE WHO IS BLUE:
SOMEONE TOOK A GUN PUT IT TO THERE HEAD:
NOW ITS A SHAME THEY ARE DEAD:
THEY LEFT BEHIND A FAMILY TOO:
NOW EVEN THE KIDS FEEL BLUE:
WHEN A TRAGEDY HAPPENS JUST LIKE THIS:
PEOPLE THEY JUST DONT KNOW HOW MUCH THEY ARE MISSED:
NO MATTER HOW DOWN AND LOW YOU FEEL THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER DAY:
SO JUST HAVE HOPE AND FAITH AND ALWAYS PRAY:
