So many times I try to get ahead in life But something always happens I'm back at where I began I get so tired of tryin' and I wanna know when it's gonna come Oh I want you to know where I'm coming from Through the dark I see the light And I know it'll be alright All I need is a little faith to get by I know you're with me where ever I may be I know you said you'd always be there Oh lord I need you now Upon my knees I pray I have a dream I'd like to share with you I've had the same one all my life So please believe in me Sometimes it gets so hard To keep believing in yourself oh but you must above all else You've got to hold your head up high Oh listen to me soon, soon the storm will subside And again at dawn the sun will rise Soon the storm will subside Again at dawn the sun will rise
