Espera - Esperanza Spalding

People I almost gave up holding on

Watching us give into our fears

I almost believe

Almost believe

All the world is helpless sorrow

No hope for a bright tomorrow

But I'm not sure enough

To give it up  no

Now as I learn how I must work for change

I nearly cave in from the weight

I almost believe

Almost believe

All the sorrows will consume me

Till peace among men I never can see

But i'm not sure enough to give it up

I'll keep faith

Like so many souls who won't be drowned

By evil in the world

I have faith in mankind

That we can guide our choices towards a healthy world
In time to ease our bind

For only hard work through time

Can change men's minds  I know

If we make some small changes now

We'll heal ourselves  some way  some how

I don't expect to ever taste the fruit

My life devoted could bring forth

I almost believe

Well I do believe

Oh the path to peace is endless

So  choosing to close our eyes makes our fault mendless

Of this I'm sure enough

I won't give up

I'm sure enough

And I won't give up

I'm sure enough

And I won't give up
