Don’t lose hope don’t lose hope Don’t lose hope cuz it ain’t easy
Don’t lose hope don’t lose hope
You know you’ve got to keep it going strong
You’ve been dodging rain drops
Stuck in the middle of the traffic cops
And all the thugs who think they own the block It’s all too easy to go wrong
Keep that fire burning
Stoke it higher as the night comes Keep it burning through the cold night It’s all too easy to go wrong
Don’t lose hope it’s easy to say
When you ain’t had to learn the hard way Falling down getting up again
You know I’ve had to learn the hard way
You’ve been dodging rain drops
Don’t get stuck up on the wrong block Don’t get caught up on the way home It’s all too easy to go wrong
