Wyclef Jean - New Day

What we gon' do right now is go back, way back

I wanna dedicate this to those who never made it

>From kindergarten to the 12th I never graduated

Yo but college wasn't for some of us

So we joined the service

I turn the page

What's the news today

People getting fired, walking on a wire

Looting on the streets cause the kid's gotta eat

Oh, oh turn around and look at the hour glass

I gotta get it straight

Before it's too late

Cause I don't wanna be behind that gates

Keep your head up

(Uh keep your head up)

Cause a new day will come

(Uh-huh, uh-huh)

And look towards the
