So welcome to the world
Got so much I can tell you baby
So many lessons to learn
Let me tell you I�ve heard

Because people can be cruel
And the world is full of rules
That�s when you need to call me
When the struggle gets you down
And there�s no one else around
That�s when you need to call me

Oh you�ll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can�t do it
I�ll make you better than that
Don�t be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you�re through with it
I know you�re better than that

I still believe
That this world is a good place baby
For every vulture and thief
Kindness in every stranger

When it�s slipping through your hands
When you do not understand
That�s when you need to call me
When you cannot carry on
When you feel like hope is gone
That�s when you can call me

Oh you�ll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can�t do it
I'll make you better than that
Don�t be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you�re through with it
I know you�re better than that

Welcome to the world
Got so much I can tell you baby
So many lessons to learn
Let me tell you I�ve heard

The road is long, so just hang on
It�s gonna be alright
I�ll make you better than that
The road is long, so keep your faith
When your zero has come
It�s gonna be alright

And you�ll be judged
For who you love
the color of your skin
The road is long
just hang on
It�s gonna be alright

Oh you�ll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can�t do it
I�ll make you better than that
Don�t be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you�re through with it
I know you�re better than that

Oh you�ll be strong, you hold on
You will get through it
And when you can�t do it
I�ll make you better than that

Don�t be scared, sing your song
Bring your soul to it
And when you�re through with it
I know you�re better than that

It�s gonna be alright
