High Hopes

High, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when you knew that I was willing
 Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes
 Mama said, fulfill the prophecy
 Be something greater, go make a legacy
 Manifest destiny, back in the day
 We wanted everything, wanted everything
 Mama said, burn your biographies
 Rewrite your history, light up your wildest dreams
 Museum victories, every day
 We wanted everything, wanted everything
 Mama said don't give up
 It's a little complicated
 All tied up, no more love
 And I'd hate to see you waiting
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when you knew that I was willing
 Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)
 Mama said, it's uphill for oddities
 The stranger crusaders, ain't ever wannabes
 The weird and the novelties don't ever change
 We wanted everything, wanted everything
 Stay up on that rise
 Stay up on that rise and never come down, oh
 Stay up on that rise
 Stay up on that rise and never come down
 Mama said don't give up
 It's a little complicated
 All tied up, no more love
 And I'd hate to see you waiting
 They say it's all been done
 But they haven't seen the best of me, eh-eh-eh
 So I got one more run
 And it's gonna be a sight to see, eh-eh-eh
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when you knew that I was willing
 Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when you knew that I was willing
 Didn't have a dime, but I always had a vision
 Always had high, high hopes
 Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Didn't know how, but I always had a feeling
 I was gonna be that one in a million
 Always had high, high hopes (High, high hopes)
