Let's bring heaven to earth
Everything should get better
Let's bring heaven to earth
Everything will get better
We'll bring heaven to earth
And no one has to endanger their life anymore
One of the most precious treasures on earth
I want to get out of this mess here
But I don't know how that should work
Out of this damn area
But I don't know how that should work
They lock me in this district
Because they don't want me to see the rest of the world
I'll walk out of this prison
When I know where I should go
Everything can get better
Let's bring heaven to earth
Everything should get better
Let's bring heaven to earth, yeah
Everything will get better
We'll bring heaven to earth
And no one has to endanger their life anymore, ooh
One of the most precious treasures on earth
Even if you're crying bitterly now
Please don't give up
Even if you're denying life right now
Please don't give up
Even if you seem deceased
Please don't give up
Even if everything seems corrupted
Don't give up, yeah
Everything can get better
Let's bring heaven to earth, yeah
Everything should get better
Let's bring heaven to earth
Everything will get better
We'll bring heaven to earth (heaven to earth)
And no one has to endanger their life anymore, ooh
One of the most precious treasures on earth
I can see beyond the borders of here
And I know there's more for me
I'm not afraid to face what they fear
If it means I can be free
Discourage me if you think you can
But I won't stop till I'm out of here
Yeah, I just don't give a damn
Not afraid to face what they fear
Everything can get better
Let's bring heaven to earth
Everything should get better
Let's bring heaven to earth
Everything will get better (everything will get better)
We'll bring heaven to earth (heaven to earth)
And no one has to endanger their life anymore, ooh
One of the most precious treasures on earth (come again)
Everything can get better (everything will get better)
Let's bring heaven to earth, (ooh)
Everything should get better
Let's bring heaven to earth, oh yeah)
Everything will get better (please don't give up)
We'll bring heaven to earth (heaven to earth)
And no one has to endanger their life anymore
One of the most precious treasures on earth
Please don't give up
Please don't give up
Please don't give up
Don't give up
