The Promise

[Verse 1] You know it's better You know it's better when We start together You know it's better when We get up and start again We are the promise We are the promise Don't fight it Will it always be so hard? Don't fight it now You know that I can hit the ground running [Chorus] You know I can hit the ground running Hold onto me In the darkness find the beat You know that I can hit the ground running, baby Hope is so dangerous (Do this thing with me) Hope is so radiant (I can almost see it, baby) [Verse 2] You know we're on our own No compass, no one to tell us When it's time to let it go You know we're on our own But I wanna show you What I already know We are the promise We are the promise Don't fight it Will it always be so hard? Don't fight it now You know that I can hit the ground running [Chorus] There are moments of nothing but doubt Feeling defeated, and cheated and so worn out Is there shame in what might have been Shame when the dream is ragged and wearing thin? You know that I can hit the ground running
