Phora - Hope Lyrics
INTRO VOCALS:I'm surprise I'm still standin' right hereI was livin' in a nightmareNever be able to breath againAnthro Beats!!!VERSE 1:First offI ain't in this for the Dead PresidentsThe nice whips fly chicks or gold necklacesI do this in hopes that my Auntie gets off of the pipeN the small chance of possibly changing a persons lifeI wanna make things rightThese kids need some guidanceThis generations lullaby is gunshots n sirensI'm here to make a difference ***** the code of the streetsI refuse to be a victim to my own self defeatDon't let em get you trappedCuz there's only 2 places that you'll end upN I'm pretty sure you know just where that's at***** the fame, ***** the money,***** gettin' put on the mapI'm just trynna come togetherBrown, White, Yellow, BlackIt don't matter what colorN before you put that bullet in his headJust make sure you think of his motherAnd his little sister cryin' when they seem him at his funeralBut in the streets I guess that's business as usualHOOK:And I took so many chances in my lifeI'm surprise I'm still standing right hereI never thought i'll make it yoJust a couple of years ago, I was living in a nightmareKnife in my chest, Knife in my backNever thought i'll be able to breath againBut now I know I'm here for a reason butI just don't think this muthaf's see it yetI just don't think these muthaf's see it yetVERSE 2:I dont write music to convince you to believe in meI write music to convince you to believe in youStay positive, keep smiling, and one day you’ll seeAnything is possible & you could make your dreams come true,This is for the Kids that past before they had a chance to liveTheir memories live on throughout my wordsAnd If I had to give my life so you could hold the ones you lostAnd hear them laugh again, I would do it in a secondAll I ask is this, When im gone rememberAll I ever wanted was to make a differencePray my sister graduates, I hate to miss itBut if my time comes you won't hear me complainBut since we still here let me speak to youSo just press play n listenIf I ever made a million dollarsI'll create a program to help these kids get into collegeEven tho my ass didn't pass the 11th gradeMomma is still proud and that's all that matters for heavens sakeI let the haters hate, cuz my family will always love meNothing left to say, didn't make it here by getting luckyI'm playing by the rule but yo I gotta confessLast night I felt like quitting cuz all of the stressGot the world on my shoulder n pain all over my chestPlus my girl is tripping, she keeps thinking I'm callin' my exBut 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 downN talk behind your back & diss you when you're not aroundBut they will never stop meI'mma change the worldDont belive meJust Watch meHeyyy...(2pac - White Christmas Interview).........HOOK:And I took so many chances in my lifeI'm surprise I'm still standing right hereI never thought i'll make it yoJust a couple of years ago, I was living in a nightmareKnife in my chest, knife in my backNever thought i'll be able to breath againBut now I know I'm here for a reason butI don't think this muthaf's see it yetI just don't think these muthaf's see it yet
