High Hopes

Move one step at a time
One rhyme in my mind
Do it for all my boys
That'll put they lifes on the line
Fast forward, but ain't no pausing the times
They livin' the fast lane
And been poppin' them nines
I left the street's and
Got up on these beats my nigga
Fuck running from police
Rather the kicks on my feet
Be clean and never suffer from a crease, my nigga
Keep calm and let me speak, my nigga
Let me speak

I made this song for my niggas
Still living in the struggle
I wrote these lyrics just to tell mama
I'm sorry and I love you
Avoided my grandma call
But I put no one above you
My pop a solid old nigga
He ain't never moved a muscle
He never moved a muscle

I got a bunch of bad habits
I refuse to quit
If you love me for me
Then you'd get used to it
I got a certain swag
That I never used to drip
I guess I finally got rid
Of all that useless shit
Stay on good terms with people
And I rarely burn bridges
I'm a really good guy
Its false if you heard different
My loyalty never switching
I keep it a stack
But I expect the same loyalty back
So here I am
I hang around no fools
But I like to vent
So you can catch me on pro tools
And hear what I produce
And watch how I proceed
By following no rules
I give you that soul food
And this shit ain't sugar coated
This shit ain't seasoned
So even diabetics can digest what I'm preaching
Believe me I was pissed off
When I was leaving
So I used a pen & pad just to air out my grievance

I made this song for my niggas
Still living in the struggle
I wrote these lyrics just to tell mama
I'm sorry and I love you
Avoided my grandma call
But I put no one above you
My pop a solid old nigga
He ain't never moved a muscle
He never moved a muscle

Though the beat ain't drop
Man, it's far from over
Got a call my cousin died
Still ain't lose my composure
Then I heard my grandma cry
No one above her
I told her
Cause she my rider
And I'm her roller
Drowning in this Henny
Only way I can cope
Fools tryna be president
No way ima vote
Wrote this song and it filled me with hope
Made me think about the people I know
I'm 2-0 but who keeping the score
I rarely shed tears
And I hardly show pain
My reaction, I just sip
Drown my liver in propane
And my niggas they keep saying
Don't talk bout that
So that's the reason
Why I call this shit the feel good track
This that feel good rap
I put my feels on that
Tired of hearing the same shit
That's how I feel bout trap
My team know that we nice
And ain't no deal on that
My team knowing that we still gone snap
Yeah

I made this song for my niggas
Still living in the struggle
I wrote these lyrics just to tell mama
I'm sorry and I love you
Avoided my grandma call
But I put no one above you
My pop a solid old nigga
He ain't never moved a muscle
He never moved a muscle

So when the sun goes down
And the nights get cold
Just another day of a story untold
Close my eyes just to rest my soul
And all I see is
Life, life, life just to dream about
Life, life, life close my eyes and see
Life, life, life
