Keep the faith

Mother mother tell your children

That their time has just begun

I have suffered for my anger

There are wars that can’t be won

Father father please believe me

I am laying down my guns

I am broken like an arrow

Forgive me

Forgive your wayward son

Everybody needs somebody to love

(mother, mother)

Everybody needs somebody to hate

(please believe me)

Everybody’s bitching

�cause they can’t get enough

And it’s hard to hold on

When there’s no one to lean on

Faith: you know you’re gonna live thru the rain

Lord you got to keep the faith

Faith: don’t let your love turn to hate

Right now we got to

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Lord we got to keep the faith

Tell me baby when I hurt you

Do you keep it all inside

Do you tell me al’s forgiven

And just hide behind your pride

Everybody needs somebody to love

(mother, father)

Everybody needs somebody to hate

(please don’t leave me)

Everybody’s bleeding

’cause the times are tough

Well it’s hard to be strong

When there’s no one to dream on

Faith: you know you’re gonna live thru the rain

Lord you got to keep the faith

Now you know is not too late

Oh you got to keep the faith

Faith: don’t let your love turn to hate

Right now we got to

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Lord we got to keep the faith

Walking in the footsteps

Of society’s lies

I don’t like what I see no more

Sometimes I wish that I was blind

Sometimes I wait forever

To stand out in the rain

So no one sees me cryin’

Trying to wash away the pain

Mother father

There�s things I’ve done I can�t erase

Every night we fall from grace

It�s hard with the world in yours face

Trying to hold on, trying to hold on

Faith: you know you’re gonna live thru the rain

Lord you got to keep the faith

Faith: don’t let your love turn to hate

Right now we got to keep the faith

Faith: now it’s not too late

Try to hold on, trying to hold on

Keep the faith
