Keep The Faith - Live In New York/2000

Mother, mother tell your children

That their time has just begun

I have suffered for my anger

There are wars that can't be won

Father, father please believe me

I am laying down my guns

I am broken like an arrow

Forgive me

Forgive your wayward son

Everybody needs somebody to love

(Mother, mother)

Everybody needs somebody to hate

(Please believe me)

Everybody's bitching

'Cause they can't get enough

And it's hard to hold on

When there's no one to lean on

Faith, you know you're gonna live through the rain

Lord you got to keep the faith

Faith, don't you let your love turn to hate

Now we've got to

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Lord, we've gotta keep the faith

Tell me baby when I hurt you

Do you keep it all inside?

Do you tell me "All's forgiven"

And just hide behind your pride

Yeah

Everybody needs somebody to love

(Mother, father)

Everybody needs somebody to hate

(Please don't leave me)

Everybody's bleeding

'Cause the times are tough

Well it's hard to be strong

When there's no one to dream on

Faith, you know you're gonna live through the rain

Lord, you've got to keep the faith

Don't you know it's never too late

Right now, we've got to keep the faith

Faith, don't you let your love turn to hate

Love, you've got to keep the faith

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Oh, we've got to keep the faith

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Lord, we've got to keep the faith

Ooh yeah

Ooh yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I've been walking in the footsteps

Of society's lies

I don't like what I see no more

Sometimes I wish that I was blind

Sometimes I wait forever

To stand out in the rain

So no one sees me cryin'

Trying to wash away the pain

Mother, father

There's things I've done I can't erase

Every night we fall from grace

It's hard with the world in your faith

Trying to hold on, trying to hold on

Faith, you know you're gonna live through the rain

Lord, you got to keep the faith

Faith, don't you let your love turn to hate

Right now we've got to keep the faith

Faith, keep the faith, keep the faith

Try to hold on, trying to hold on

Yeah

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Everybody keep the faith

Keep the faith

Keep the faith

Ooh yeah

Everybody needs somebody to love

Everybody needs somebody to hate (ooh yeah)
