Hope

 

Life, love, who can say

What they really mean

Who gets to decide

What will shape people’s expectations?

 

Life wasn’t meant to be easy

True love is hard to find

Saying like these surround us

So why do we even try?

 

I believe we try because we know

Somewhere deep down inside us

That there has to be an answer

Sometimes, someone has to win

 

So we try and try again

Hoping that one day soon

We will be that winner

And our dreams really will come true

 

We see it happen now and then

When someone actually makes it

And achieves all they’ve been trying for

It gives us back our hope
