Lately my son i've been confused

Don't know what to tell you 'cause it's all such bad news

Lately my son i've been discouraged

I look around and it fills me with worry

What kind of world can i offer you

Where will it all lead, do we have the sense to make it through?

I've tried to figure it out, to have an answer i can tell you

But all i can see, all i can see



(chorus)



Is i am here for you, and you are here for me

It's an ongoing process

I will take care of you and you will take care of me

If were gona make some progress



(verse 2)



Lately my son i feel ashamed

For many things that have happened and are happening again

Really my son i thought we'd learned

From what i see around me it's a very tough world

But all i can hope is that you take it as a challenge

To create somthing new that will take you far,

I know that you can manage

To scatter some hope, 'cause it's not to late to repair the damage

The only way it can be, is so easy to see



Repeat chorus



(bridge)



You gotta believe, never be afraid to dream

But follow it through, 'cause it won't get done unless it comes from you

Gotta make it all work, for the ones that are coming after you

Though hard it may seem, gotta believe



Repeat chorus
