Esperanza Spalding - Espera (Album Version)(2008)

[00:25.44] People i almost gave up holding on
[00:29.68] Watching us give into our fears
[00:37.16] I almost believe
[00:42.13] Almost believe
[00:46.63] All the world is helpless sorrow
[00:52.88] No hope for a bright tomorrow
[00:58.25] But i'm not sure enough
[01:02.85] To give it up... no
[01:17.38] Now as i learn how i must work for change
[01:23.02] I nearly cave in from the weight
[01:29.51] I almost believe
[01:36.41] Almost believe
[01:41.94] All the sorrows will consume me
[01:46.36] 'Til peace among men i never can see
[01:51.72] But i'm not sure enough to give it up
[01:57.72] I'll keep faith
[02:04.23] Like so many souls who won't be drowned
[02:07.71] By evil in the world
[02:10.47] I HAVE FAITH IN MANKIND
[02:19.23] That we can guide our choices towards a healthy world
[02:22.63] In time to ease our bind
[02:28.33] For only hard work through time
[02:31.28] Can change men's minds, i know
[02:37.66] If we make some small changes now
[02:40.89] We'll heal ourselves, some way, some how
[03:10.94] I don't expect to ever taste the fruit
[03:16.49] My life devoted could bring forth
[03:22.67] I almost believe
[03:28.28] Well i do believe
[03:33.38] Oh the path to peace is endless
[03:38.30] So, choosing to close our eyes makes our fault mendless
[03:44.03] Of this i'm sure enough
[03:47.97] I WON'T GIVE UP
[03:50.76] I'M SURE ENOUGH
[03:54.26] AND I WON'T GIVE UP
[03:56.81] I'M SURE ENOUGH
[03:59.94] AND I WON'T GIVE UP
[04:07.32]
