Beyond Another Day
When I was just a little boy,
I asked my mother what will I be,
Will I be handsome, will I be rich,
Here's what she said to me,
It ain't none of those things that matter,
It ain't none of those things at all,
You've gotta hold on to what you've been given,
You gotta promise that you'll hold it down,
Don't feel like such a waste,
Hope is beyond another day,
Fight for what you love,
Find where you belong,
And fall into place,
When I grew up,
I was on my own,
Black skies and a bitter hope,
I never quite fit the mold,
In a world covered in gold,
It ain't none of those things that matter,
It ain't none of those things at all,
You've gotta hold on to what you've been given,
You gotta promise that you'll hold it down
Don't feel like such a waste,
Hope is beyond another day,
Fight for what you love,
Find where you belong,
And fall into place,
It's time to take what I've learned,
And push myself to the side,
Passing along the right kind of pride,
The other day my son he asked me,
Will I be handsome, will I be rich,
I said,
It ain't none of those things that matter,
It ain't none of those things at all,
Don't feel like such a waste,
Hope is beyond another day,
Fight for what you love,
Find where you belong,
And fall into place
I asked my mother what will I be,
Will I be handsome, will I be rich,
Here's what she said to me,
It ain't none of those things that matter,
It ain't none of those things at all,
You've gotta hold on to what you've been given,
You gotta promise that you'll hold it down,
Don't feel like such a waste,
Hope is beyond another day,
Fight for what you love,
Find where you belong,
And fall into place,
When I grew up,
I was on my own,
Black skies and a bitter hope,
I never quite fit the mold,
In a world covered in gold,
It ain't none of those things that matter,
It ain't none of those things at all,
You've gotta hold on to what you've been given,
You gotta promise that you'll hold it down
Don't feel like such a waste,
Hope is beyond another day,
Fight for what you love,
Find where you belong,
And fall into place,
It's time to take what I've learned,
And push myself to the side,
Passing along the right kind of pride,
The other day my son he asked me,
Will I be handsome, will I be rich,
I said,
It ain't none of those things that matter,
It ain't none of those things at all,
Don't feel like such a waste,
Hope is beyond another day,
Fight for what you love,
Find where you belong,
And fall into place
