People of a Second Chance Songtext

von Group 1 Crew

Who will speak for the hopeless, ones who never had any chance
To even dream of a better way or a better day to be better than the ones in the past
Can I look inside a mirror, and think, Manny, what are you doin
Hardest question that I had to ask 'cause the answer came fast
It was nothin, provin
I could read every scripture, tell the world God is real, Jesus saves
But then ignore there are more slaves now then any other time in history, wait…
Is that true, I mean for real, how could that possibly be
That's why I cry out for God, do something, help us believe

We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands
We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands
Grace is more than we deserve, nothing we could ever earn
We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands

(People of a second chance, second second chance)
(People of a second chance, second second chance)

I believe in the youth of the world, they the future, tell me why
All we do is try to judge them, try to hush them, hopin that they fall in line
But they need to know anything is possible, nothin's outta reach if they just have faith
No, you're not alone, doesn't matter what the world says, you ain't gotta stay in your place
There's a great big world just waitin, waitin to scream your name
'Cause what you have inside can change them, this is way more than fame
This is the revolution, the blueprint of a new day, everybody's hope of change
This is your time, the freedom is yours, lift your voice and say

We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands
We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands
Grace is more than we deserve, nothing we could ever earn
We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands

Unconditional, uncontainable, does the impossible, this is grace
Uncontrollable, unbelievable, it's a miracle, this is grace

We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands
We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands
Grace is more than we deserve, nothing we could ever earn
We're the people of a second chance, lift your hands, lift your hands

(People of a second chance, second second chance)
(People of a second chance, second second chance)
