"What's Up" lyrics

25 years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination

I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

And I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out what's in my head
And I, feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
Take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

And I try
Oh my God, do I try?
I try all the time
In this institution

And I pray
Oh my God, do I pray?
I pray every day
For revolution

And I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, feeling a little peculiar

And so I wake in the morning and I step outside
I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
"What's going on?"

And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
And I say, hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"
Hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
I said "Hey, what's going on?"

25 years and my life is still
Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
