High Hopes Songtext
von Caleb Hyles

Yo, we here
Panic
Turn it up
(High, 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, "Fulfill the prophecy, be something greater
Go make a legacy, manifest destiny
Back in the days, 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 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, "Uphill for oddities
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 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

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
