Hope |
| I’m surprise I’m still standin' right here |
| I was livin' in a nightmare |
| Never be able to breath again |
| First off |
| I ain’t in this for the Dead Presidents |
| The nice whips fly chicks or gold necklaces |
| I do this in hopes that my Auntie gets off of the pipe |
| N the small chance of possibly changing a persons life |
| I wanna make things right |
| These kids need some guidance |
| This generations lullaby is gunshots n sirens |
| I’m here to make a difference fuck the code of the streets |
| I refuse to be a victim to my own self defeat |
| Don’t let em get you trapped |
| Cuz there’s only 2 places that you’ll end up |
| N I’m pretty sure you know just where that’s at |
| Fuck the fame, fuck the money, fuck gettin' put on the map |
| I’m just trynna come together |
| Brown, White, Yellow, Black |
| It don’t matter what color |
| N before you put that bullet in his head |
| Just make sure you think of his mother |
| And his little sister cryin' when they seem him at his funeral |
| But in the streets I guess that’s business as usual |
| And I took so many chances in my life |
| I’m surprise I’m still standing right here |
| I never thought I’ll make it yo |
| Just a couple of years ago, I was living in a nightmare |
| Knife in my chest, Knife in my back |
| Never thought I’ll be able to breath again |
| But now I know I’m here for a reason but |
| I just don’t think this muthaf’s see it yet |
| I just don’t think these muthaf’s see it yet |
| I don’t write music to convince you to believe in me |
| I write music to convince you to believe in you |
| Stay positive, keep smiling, and one day you’ll see |
| Anything is possible &you could make your dreams come true, |
| This is for the Kids that past before they had a chance to live |
| Their memories live on throughout my words |
| And If I had to give my life so you could hold the ones you lost |
| And hear them laugh again, I would do it in a second |
| All I ask is this, When I’m gone remember |
| All I ever wanted was to make a difference |
| Pray my sister graduates, I hate to miss it |
| But if my time comes you won’t hear me complain |
| But since we still here let me speak to you |
| So just press play n listen |
| If I ever made a million dollars |
| I’ll create a program to help these kids get into college |
| Even tho my ass didn’t pass the 11th grade |
| Momma is still proud and that’s all that matters for heavens sake |
| I let the haters hate, cuz my family will always love me |
| Nothing left to say, didn’t make it here by getting lucky |
| I’m playing by the rule but yo I gotta confess |
| Last night I felt like quitting cuz all of the stress |
| Got the world on my shoulder n pain all over my chest |
| Plus my girl is tripping, she keeps thinking I’m callin' my ex |
| But somehow, someway, I kept on pushin' |
| Never show my pain cuz you never know who’s lookin' |
| When you show weakness they try to bring you down |
| N talk behind your back &diss you when you’re not around |
| But they will never stop me |
| I’mma change the world |
| Don’t believe me |
| Just Watch me |
| Heyyy… |
| And I took so many chances in my life |
| I’m surprise I’m still standing right here |
| I never thought I’ll make it yo |
| Just a couple of years ago, I was living in a nightmare |
| Knife in my chest, knife in my back |
| Never thought I’ll be able to breath again |
| But now I know I’m here for a reason but |
| I don’t think this muthaf’s see it yet |
| I just don’t think these muthaf’s see it yet |
