Verse One
There’s something wrong
Or life’s got issues (hey yeah-yeah)
Day by day we’re hurting
We’re soaking in tears, living in fear
My eyes believe we’re lost in sin
Oh hope is what I least have
I wanna take a stand but
It’s so hard to make a difference
Chorus
If I told you I need a golden coin
Would you pass it on or keep it
Ja ja ja ja ja ja ja ja ja
If I told you I need a golden coin
Would you pass it on or keep it
(No need to lie to yourself)
Gotta keep it real, keep it true and be yourself
Verse Two
We’re still waiting on paradise
The Promised Land!
Day by day we fake a smile
Pretending is the norm of life
We make promises but don’t deliver
My eyes tell me I’m needed
But these hands won’t (won’t) get busy
Oh my heart won’t feel a shame
When did it get so bad?
I guess paradise is lost
Children are hurting
When you walk the streets
Children are lost
Day by day they’re asking for a dime
Then I heard this baby crying
Too young to know she lost her innocence
This must be hell
‘Cause we don’t seem to care no more
Chorus
If I ‘told’ you I need a golden coin
Would you pass it on or keep it
Ja ja ja ja ja ja ja ja ja
If I ‘told’ you I need a golden coin
Would you pass it on or keep it
(No need to lie to yourself)
Gotta keep it real, keep it true and be yourself
Breakdown
You got these (eyes)
These (hands)
This (voice)
Don’t let it be in vain
