the reason that i do this

is not for money or fame.

it's so we can create something

more meaningful than the mainstream.

but there's so much more i can do

than complain about my life.

so i'll get up from my chair

and rock and roll tonight.


and through my life i've seen a world

where everybody lets their problems

drag them down when they can make their own best days.

but i know in your heart you can see it some day.

and i say you got to walk away

from your pain with your head held high.

and i say i understand it's not easy

to find a hope all the time.


you can always find yourself

in the worst situation.

but feeling sorry for yourself

is the worst thing you can do.

the answer lies in the easiest place in can.

it's inside yourself.

it's inside you and me.


and i hope this gives you a hope

to go on with yourself day by day.

and i hope you can find yourself

in a brand new morning

with sunlight shining in.

you can find a hope.
