Trying to go up the down esculater Don't know how much progress I can make Don't know how much more I can take Should I get stuck and sucked in... I'll see ya later And, try it again Is our race running a race in place? Trying to swim against the current But, I can't... Seem to get anywhere Tyring to swim against the tide But, it's a slow, hard ride To getting nowhere Is our race running a race in place? Will our sons and daughters Be left treading waters? Oh, no! Hope I don't get swept away By an undertow Dear Lord, I pray for one more day Grant me this wish... and, I'll change my way Yes, I know I've promissed this many times before Yes, I know my plea you did not ignore I'm sorry to have been a repetitive liar -- A hypocrite That's exactly it But, please don't let me expire I tire And, may go under for the third time So, I'm prime... Will you save No? Well, I suppose I deserve the next wave Maybe you can pound some sense into me I'm so weak compared to your sea If I could only learn to be meak Maybe I would have seen things differnetly However, I have tried to go against popular opinion -- That "I'm number one under the sun!" I'm trying to weather I'm trying to swim against the tide So, please... may I see the sea subside?
