High Hopes

Had to have high, high hopes for a living
 Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
 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
 Mama said (mama said), "Fulfill the prophecy
 Something greater, go make a legacy"
 Manifest destiny back in the days
 We wanted everything (everything)
 Wanted everything (everything)
 Mama said (mama said), "Burn your biographies
 Rewrite your history, light up your wildest dreams"
 Museum victories everyday
 We wanted everything (everything)
 Wanted everything (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 I couldn't make a killing
 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
 Mama said (mama said), "It's uphill for oddities
 Stranger crusaders ain't ever wannabes"
 The weird and the novelties don't ever change
 We wanted everything (everything)
 Wanted everything (everything)
 Stay up on that rise (up on that rise)
 Stay up on that rise and never come down, oh
 Stay up on that rise (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
