Hope Lyrics

Hope lyrics

[Twista talking]
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, don’t underestimate, 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 ‘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 “Why can’t we all just
get along”,
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 must to see drinkin moon 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) X2]
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!
