Hopeless Lyrics

Ay man

It's hard out here

Trying to do the right thing

Trying to have something

Seem it just won't work

Broken easily to pieces like a Reeses or Kit-Kat bar nigga

Wonderin' bout my life and how it seems

I ain't even amounted to nothing at all nigga, why such a dark picture

Always been one of those known to try and seek the light

Standing for truth when others would rather

Stay blinded being misguided chasing fruitless lies

Being 2Ru3 in life ain't easy, believe me, see me; but you don't know my pain

Plenty of thangs going on inside my mind as I try to withstand the rain

Bustin' out the chains, don't think it's strange, making a change

Don't you think it's time we start being ourselves and free, instead of being afraid

Thinking back to the days, basking in sun rays; laughing, smiling

And how I'd plead the cross, but now I'm feeling lost

And now sometimes find myself spiritually dying

Trying to recover from times I gave love, only to be wounded

Left feeling like a bird whose song was stolen, lost in confusion

Subzero cold temperature in my soul, finding no trace of hope

Walking around as a remnant of my former self beat down with a fractured soul

Ever since I was born, I was raised daily in the way to believe

That a love that I've never yet had somehow would find its way to me

Where do I go, where do I turn

Sick of the pain, torment and hurt

Where do I go, where do I turn

Sick of the pain, torment and hurt, I'm feeling

Weary and tired, and like I lost my mind struggling to keep it together

Never forgetting the many moments I bared my soul

And felt nothing when trying to hear from heaven

Remember being a fool, all through high school, word is bond the real will tell

I was smoother than butter yet a hell of a brother, like nobody else

Dreaming to grow and excel

As I'm looking at life through a lens with fogs and cracks

Hoping for way better than I've seen around me

Trying to seek guidance to find Gods' hand

Getting kinda weary, eyes getting quite teary

Cause I'm living but still lacking love

I went to college and graduated

Only left with debt and a paper feeling stuck like chuck

Feeling ready to die, since this life only seems it was made to kill a nigga

Nobody want to listen yet and still continually

Trying to tell me how it is that I'm feeling nigga

Giving up ain't in me, but the urge is creepin' inchin, oh so slow

Like a caterpillar with a broken spirit, to the ground I feel, oh so low

Let it be known, that I gave my all, heart, soul and my mind

How I prayed for others to have better in their situation

Even when I'm lacking in the same spot

Maybe the only time, I'll get to truly rest is after entering the gates

Falling out cold cause my energys' gone

Spiritually exhausted 'cross the road golden paved

Where do I go, where do I turn

Sick of the pain, torment and hurt

Where do I go, where do I turn

Sick of the pain, torment and hurt, I'm feeling

My vision shall never be deemed made in greed for glory and fame

Though I wanna stack change

I wanna see something good for generations unnamed

Make no mistake, as a man I live and stand with countless flaws

Yet striving daily to pick up virtues and better myself hoping to lessen my falls

Sharing intricate ill wisdom, as I pick it, from the fruits of plenty

Trying to bring truth to the youth to help 'em improve and stay away from prison

I crafted this from my soul, in hopes somebody would listen

To forget the perpetrated lies of murderous and seemingly lavish criminal living

Many say they really want the real, but won't press play when it's here

Causing some niggas to switch their style and start to rhyming about a brick

Just cause it sells, don't mean it's real, heartfelt authentic and true

Watch and study what's being presented

Before you sit down and say it's cool to consume

If the game ain't changed, then sadly we've all been seduced into a lie

It was really never bout the music and the love just connections

And driven by dollars and dimes

Take my message in its pure essence through honest love and affection

Trying to help us see where we've been, currently are and headed

Hopeless, hopeless...
