Hope |
Man, I know we had a lot of tragedies lately. |
I just wanna say rest in peace to Aaliyah, |
Rest in peace to Left Eye, |
Rest in peace to Jam Master Jay, |
And everybody lost in the Twin Towers, |
And everybody lost period. |
All we got is HOPE! |
VERSE 1 (Twista) |
I wish the way I was living could stop, serving rocks, |
Knowing the cops is hot when I’m on the block, And I Wish my brother woulda made bail, |
So I won’t have to travel 6 hours to see him in jail, And I Wish that my grandmother wasn’t sick, |
Or that we would just come up on some stacks and hit a lick, And I (I wish) |
Wish my homies wouldn’t have to suffer, |
When the streets get the upper had on us and we lose a brother, And I Wish I could go deep in a zone, |
And lift the spirits of the world with the words with in this song, |
And I (I wish) |
Wish I could teach a could teach a soul to fly, |
Take away the pain out cha hands and help you hold them hi, And I Wish God never gave the men power |
To be able to hurt the people inside the Twin Towers, And I (I wish) |
Wish God woulda turned they hearts righteous, |
When they started to take innocent lives and become snipers, But uh We will never break, though they devistate, we shall motivate, |
And we gotta pray, all we got is faith. |
Instead of thinking about who gonna die to day, |
The Lord is gonna help you feel better, so you ain’t gotta cry today. |
Sit at the light so long, |
And then we gotta move straight forward, cuz we fight so strong, |
So when right go wrong, |
Just say a little prayer, get ya money man, life go on!!! |
Let’s HOPE! |
CHORUS (Cee-Lo) |
Cuz I’m hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today, |
Take this music and use it Let it take you away, |
And be hopeful (hopeful) and he’ll make a way |
I know it ain’t easy but that’s okay. |
Let’s be hopeful! |
VERSE 2 (Twista) |
I wish that you could show some love, |
Instead of hatin so much when you see some other people commin up (I wish) |
I wish I could teach the world to sing, |
Watch the music and have Ђ?em trippin of the joy I bring, (shiit) |
I wish that we could hold hands, |
Listen instead of dissin lessons from a grown man, And I (I wish) |
Wish the families that lack, but got love, get some stacks |
Brand new shack and a lack that’s on dubs, And I Wish we could keep achieving wonders, |
See the vision of the world through the eyes of Stevie Wonder, (you feel me) (I wish) |
And I hope all the kids eat, |
And don’t nobody in my family see six feet, (ya dig) |
I hope them mothers stain’strong, |
You can make it whether you wit him or your mans gone, And I (I wish) |
Wish I could give every celly some commissary, |
And the po po bring the heat on them priest like they did R. Kelly, And I Wish that DOC could scream again |
And bullets could reverse so Pac and Biggie breath again, (shit) (I wish) |
Then one day they could speak again, |
I wish that we only saw good news every time we look at CNN, |
I wish that enemies could talk, |
And that super homie Christopher Reeves could still walk, (I wish) |
I wish that we could walk a path, stay doin the right thing |
Hustle hard so the kids maintain up in the game, |
Let’s HOPE |
CHORUS (Cee-Lo) |
Cuz I’m hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today, |
Take this music and use it Let it take you away, |
And be hopeful (hopeful) and he’ll make a way |
I know it ain’t easy but that’s okay. |
Let’s be hopeful! |
VERSE 3 (Twista) |
Wish the earth wasn’t so apocalyptic, |
I try to spread my message to the world the best way I can give it, |
We can make it always so optimistic, |
If you don’t listen gotta live my life the best way I can live it, |
I pray for justice when we go to court, |
Wish it was all good so the country wouldn’t have to go to war, |
Why can’t we kick it and just get em on, |
And in the famous words of Mr. King ЂњWhy can’t we all just get alongЂќ, |
Or we can find a better way to shop and please, And I Hope we find a better way to cop a keys, And I Wish everybody would just stop and freeze, |
And ask way are we fulfillin these downfalls and prophecies, |
You can be wrong if it’s you doubting, |
With the faith of a mustard seed you can move mountains, |
And only the heavenly father and ease the hurt, |
Just let it go and keep prayin on your knees in church! |
And let’s HOPE |
CHORUS (Cee-Lo) X 2 |
Cuz I’m hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today, |
Take this music and use it Let it take you away, |
And be hopeful (hopeful) and he’ll make a way |
I know it ain’t easy but that’s okay. |
Let’s be hopeful! |
