Keep The Faith

(Esperanza)

I have to find the peace in the silence, I have to say her name, And wait for the echo to respond, And I have to pray, that someone Is taking care of all of these names, In this empty air We’ve spent our lives separated, But I lose my breath Just thinking about the moment, I wake up from a dream, And she tells me her name, I think that’s gonna be God’s way That’ll be my peace, So I pray to God he saves her I pray to God someone saves her, Cause man, she’s the only thing saving me, I keep the faith cause I gotta believe, I do it to keep the family safe, For the love of my mother, For the love of my others
