Faith
40(Forty) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a soulless town and everyone's down
Everyone turns at every one sound
And there's no calm

Everyone knows survival will count
If your soul can be found when days are down
You won't be lost
Baby have some faith
Baby have some faith
Good is as real as the evil

Homeless bodies in my back yard
Battered women and children scarred
The apathy here is amoral fear

Influence of power in the wrong hands
Resorting to torture, the prophet demands
Teaches us nothing and sensors the news

Baby have some faith
Baby have some faith
Daylight will follow the darkness

Baby have some faith
Baby have some faith
No one can steal your day baby

I know what's aching you,
You've got the love in you, and you'll get by

I know you'll make it through
You've got the love in you, and you'll get by





The knack for souls is great and I can
See that every time

Overall Meaning

I walk this land
But I won't cave


The truth is hard to swallow
It's not always easy to follow
But we must try


The world can seem so cold and unfair
But don't give up, don't you dare
Hold on to hope
Baby have some faith
Baby have some faith
Love can conquer hate


In these lyrics, 40 (Forty) is describing the challenges of living in a world that can often feel soulless and apathetic. The verses paint a picture of a society where people are downtrodden and oppressed, and where the powerful have too much influence. But despite all of this, the chorus reminds us that it's important to hold onto faith and hope. Good can prevail over evil, and love can conquer hate if we believe in it.

Agreeing sister.

@gsc512

Now what is your plan for this great prayer? What step should one take in order to achieve this? What steps can you personally take? What impact will it have on those around you in society or shall God do it all? Last time you tried they hung his son on a cross. Her feeling what their leader had done broken rock with wood. And people feel back on what they always did to worship the serpent
