Hope

Bunch of young kids, lost looking for hope
Bunch of young kids, always getting told no
Bunch of young kids, in the dumps and on they own
To all my young kids, just know you not alone
Bunch of young kids, lost looking for hope
Bunch of young kids, always getting told no
Bunch of young kids, in the dumps and on they own
To all my young kids, just know you not alone

I been thinking less, and smoking less, and drinking less
And hoping less and focused more on what I should be doing
Cannot kill the stress, always caught up in a mess
Always so fucking depressed, that's how we doing
Finally recognizing that I'm not alone here
Ain't been feeling like myself, boy it's been a long year
Told my momma that I'm going crazy and I can't take it
Told my momma I'm not happy and I can't fake it
Off the drugs is the only way I truly open up to her
She says I'm growing up to her
I just hope I maintain, keep it sane in my brain
I don't want to feel like I'm going nuts to her
That was last year and a couple trips later had me thinking
That I'm meant to be greater than what I was then
I was scared to tell a soul, fake smiles, fake laughs
Like I'm fine, told myself "stop fronting"

Bunch of young kids, lost looking for hope
Bunch of young kids, always getting told no
Bunch of young kids, in the dumps and on they own
To all my young kids, just know you not alone
Bunch of young kids, lost looking for hope
Bunch of young kids, always getting told no
Bunch of young kids, in the dumps and on they own
To all my young kids, just know you not alone

But I can't lie, my life ain't perfect
I ain't heal how I wanted, but I keep on working
Tryna rebuild and be the change that I wanna see
I'd rather be a sap than to be a fucking wanna be
Cause what I wanna be is happy, can you blame me
For being misled, broke and angry?
I may seem like shit's alright
But I'm still freaking out losing sleep all night
And that's real, no I ain't ashamed to tell the world how I feel
Cause they feel the same and they don't know how to deal
They wanna get better on they own without a pill
They say I'm too emotional, and no I don't appeal
To a bunch of wanna be's that never struggled in they life
But they fake a hustle for the props and the ice
That's who you looking up to but you know you don't relate
Anyways, man they soul had a price
And that was price was paid for, days I slaved for
All the shit I wanted, do I really gotta say more?
But I been through a lot, I deserve a lot, and I know I'm no better than the rest of you
One thing I learned is invest in you, in all the best for you, that make sense to you?
Don't be scared to dream, manifest it too
Say fuck the world, do what you're meant to do

Bunch of young kids, lost looking for hope
Bunch of young kids, always getting told no
Bunch of young kids, in the dumps and on they own
To all my young kids, just know you not alone
Bunch of young kids, lost looking for hope
Bunch of young kids, always getting told no
Bunch of young kids, in the dumps and on they own
To all my young kids, just know you not alone

Who we are is not defined by how
Hard we fall, but rather if we get up
And when we get up
We gon finally find the light and fly away
