Have Hope

Verse 1
Hope can you feel, it’s kinda stipulated
Hope when its real, I’m feeling elevated, kinda animated, duly inundated
Come and turn around, now it’s time that we really made it
Faith is the key, towards the manifested
Hope and believe, in times we’re really tested
I’m eager interested, a power that is vested
Come and follow me to places that we’ve never rested

Chorus
Time and time and time we’ve got to have hope �" yeah
Bring it back to life and it’s got to have scope �" ooh yeah
Come and fill my heart with joy and laughter, laughter
Come and fill the sky with praise �" oh yeah

Verse 2
Pour into me, a fill of motivation
Come let us hear, a calling generation, a rosy illustration, no upper limitation
Come and let me show you what it means to have a celebration
Come dance with me, it’s really necessary
Hope certainty, we’re truly legendary
We’re cheerful bright and merry, we’re always ever ready
Come strike a deal and let us bring the extraordinary

Chorus

Bridge (x4)
Oh we’ve got to have hope yeah
Come bring me that hope yeah

Author's Note

The song entitled 'Have Hope' is a ray of light in a world of complexity and varied trials. Have Hope was written as part of the 'Have Hope' project to help inspire the concept of maintaining hope to people across the world. The song has equally been recorded and performed by a number of musical artists from different hemispheres. In the journey of life, a 'smooth sailing' ride isn't promised, but the persistence to endure in the face of trials is a wholesome practice.

The first verse includes the term 'faith', which requires one to carry belief and confidence in that which has no current physical manifested evidence. The notion of optimism equally comes to mind, as well as to trust that there exists a solution for every problem. To capture positive feelings of joy and to embrace times of laughter are essential concepts within the song, as well as hope being a necessity.
