It's gonna take more than prayers to change this place It's gonna take a lot of "I don't know if I can" They beat us down, make us crazy Make us sick, call us lazy I don't want your martial law, I want clean air I don't want no enemies that ain't even there Make us work, but they can't pay us I want to work so they can't play us I feel hope coming, I feel hope coming I feel love coming, I feel hope coming I feel hope coming, I feel hope coming I feel love coming, I feel hope coming So get dug in They wanna take my home And turn it upside down on me Until my heart is numb My heart is Until my heart is numb My heart is numb It's gonna take more than prayers to change my faith It's gonna take a lot of "I don't know if I can" She needs protection so she can love on All her family, so they can go on To make it work, so they can thank us Got to work so they can't play us I feel hope coming, I feel hope coming I feel love coming, I feel hope coming I feel hope coming, I feel hope coming I feel love coming, I feel hope coming Whatever's coming, let it come There's no man that can make me run All the hell that we put through each other Can make us so strong They wanna take my home And turn it upside down on me Until my heart is numb My heart is Until my heart is numb My heart is numb
