Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope it's gonna get better
Don't worry, there's no hurry for you, for me everything's gonna come around
Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me, someone's gonna see
He calls me over, calls me brother and I know
Always fighting and moonlighting, it never ends
In the city, if you're all alone
There's a sister and she's standing next to her man
In the darkness you feel the sharpness of steel
And it's always there, in the city, if you're all alone
Reach out, hands in the air, don't care just what they're saying
Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope it's gonna get better
Don't worry, there's no hurry for you, for me everything's gonna come around
Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me, someone's gonna see
If it's gonna get better, it starts with a feeling
If it's gonna get better, it's gonna take time
If it's gonna get better, we've gotta start now
Cos I know everybody can feel it
And I know everybody will see it
Cos it shows, and that shows I'm not dreaming
Cos you know, I know, it's time for a change
