HOPE

作曲 : Tommee Profitt/NF

Hope I'm on my way I'm coming

Don't, don't lose faith in me

I know you've been waiting

I know you've been praying for my soul

Hope, hope

30 years you've been draggin' your feet telling me I'm the reason we're stagnant

30 years you've been claiming you're honest and promising progress, well where's it at?

I don't want you to feel like a failure

I know this hurts

But I gave you your chance to deliver

Now it's my turn

Don't get me wrong

(Nate you've had a great run)

But it's time to

(Give the people something different)

So without further ado I'd

Like to introduce my

My album, my album, my album, my album, my album, my album

HOPE

What's my definition of success?

Listening to what your heart says

Standing up for what you know is

Right while everybody else is

Tucking their tail between their legs

(Okay)

What's my definition of success?

Creating something no one else can

Being brave enough to dream big

Grinding when you're told to just quit

Giving more when you got nothin' left

It's a person that'll take a chance on

Something they were told could never happen

It's a person that can see the bright side

Through the dark times when there ain't one

It's when someone who ain't never had nothing

Ain't afraid to walk away from

More profit 'cause they'd rather do something that they really love and take the pay cut

It's person that would never waver

Or change who

They are just to try and gain some

Credibility so they can feel accepted by a stranger

It's a person that can take the failures in their life and turn 'em into motivation

It's believing in yourself when no one else does it's amazing

What a little bit of faith can do

If you don't even believe in you

Why would you think or expect anybody else that's around you to

I done did things that I regret

I done said things I can't take back

Was a lost soul at a crossroad who had no hope but I changed that

I spent years of my life holding on to things

I never should kept full of hatred

Years of my life carrying a lot of baggage

That I should've walked away from

Years of my life wishin' I was someone different

Lookin' for some validation

Years of my life trying to fill a void pretending I was they get it

Growing pain's a necessary evil

Difficult to go through yes but beneficial

Some would say having a mental breakdown is a

Negative thing which on one hand I agree but

On the other hand it was the push I needed

To get help and start the healing process see

If l'da never hit rocket bottom would I be the person that I am today I don't believe

So I'm a prime example of happens when you

Choose to not accept defeat and face your demons

Took me 30 years to realize that if you wanna get the opportunity

To be the greatest version of yourself sometimes

You gotta be someone you're not to hear the voice of reason

Having kids will make you really take a step back and look in the mirror at least for me that's what it did

I wake up every day and pick my son up

Hold him in my arms and let him know he's loved (loved)

Standing by the window questioning if dad is ever going to show up (up)

Isn't something he's gon' have to worry bout

Don't get it twisted that wasn't a shot

Mamma I forgive you I just don't want him to

Grow up thinking that he'll never be enough

30 years of running

30 years of searching

30 years of hurting

30 years of pain

30 years of fearful

30 years of anger

30 years of empty

30 years of shame

30 years of broken

30 years of anguish

30 years of hopeless

30 years of (hey)

30 years of never

30 years of maybe

30 years of later

30 years of fake

30 years of hollow

30 years of sorrow

30 years of darkness

30 years of (Nate)

30 vears of baggage

30 years of sadness

30 years of stagnant

30 years of chains

30 years of anxious

30 vears of suffering

30 years of torment

30 years of (wait)

30 years of bitter

30 years of lonely

30 years of pushing everyone away

You'll never evolve

(I know I can change)

We are not enough

(We are not the same)

You don't have the heart

(You don't have the strength)

You don't have the will

You don't have the faith)

You'll never be loved

You'll never be safe

Might as well give up

(Not running away)

You don't have the guts

(You're the one afraid)

I'm the one in charge

I'm taking the (NO)

I'm taking the reigns...
