[Refrain: Jay Allen]
Twenty-five years, and my life is still
Trying to get up that great, big hill of hope
For a destination
And I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
[Verse 1: Jay Allen]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I, I'm feelin' a little peculiar
And so I wake in the mornin' and I step outside
And I take a deep breath and get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"
[Chorus: Jay Allen]
(And I say)
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said, "Hey, what's goin' on?"
And I say
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said, "Hey, a-what's goin' on?"
[Verse 2: Jay Allen]
(And he tries)
Oh, my God, do I try?
I try all the time
In this institution
(And he prays!)
Oh, my God, do I pray?
I pray every single day
(Myah!)
For revolution
[Chorus: Jay Allen, Amy Allen, Amy Allen & Ryan Haines, All]
And I say
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said, "Hey, what's goin' on?"
And I say
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey (Don't cry out loud)
Hey-ey-ey (Just keep it inside)
I said, "Hey"
Learn how to hide your feelings
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey, yeah, yeah, yeah
I said, "Hey, a-what's goin' on?" Yeah
[Refrain: Jay Allen]
Twenty-five years, and my life is still
Trying to get up that great, big hill
Of hope
For a destination
