Children of a Lesser God

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Been a long, hard day, sun's going down around now Gotta get some shelter, gotta get some food somehow Mama's down on the corner, daddy left long ago Nowhere to hide your fears, when the cold winds blow Ooh, can't get to sleep at night, so hard to face each day Somehow I've got to get up, somehow I've got to get away Till I heard someone say: [Chorus] Children of a lesser god Light a candle in your window till the morning light Children of a lesser god Take hold of your dreams, hold them tight [Verse 2] Some days I wanna cry, some days I get so low But I know I gotta do what's right, to make it to a better day Ooh, some days I'm so confused, why is my world like this Why do they pass me by, when they know that it's just A condition of the heart, in this day Mm... little do they know, not too far away A little beaten child, praise to thee his pray, no [Chorus] Children of a lesser god Light a candle in your window till the morning light Children of a lesser god Take hold of your dreams, hold them tight Children of a lesser god Do you know the future of this world is in your hands Children of a lesser god You can have it all, yes you can... [Outro] Baby... Children of a lesser god Light a candle in your window till the morning light Children of a lesser god Take hold of your dreams, hold them tight Hey, hey, hey... ooh, ooh, yeah... Wipe the tears from your eyes...
