Hope

Things feel kinda different now
After four years built a crowd from all the friends that I've found
People that truly make me feel safe and sound
Despite the negative thoughts that come when they not around
But I ain't forget the one's I've lost or the ones that have fallen
Two by the same name that's pretty insane
Used to write my thoughts in journals in AP Lang
Think of ways I should rap with innovative slang
Or hope for a future where I'm up on the stage
I'll take an Oscar, take a Grammy, I'll take anything
Going to school for film, not on a whim
Show my thoughts through my characters
Shed more light when it's dim
Can't let my greenery get flimsy, hope it never chips
Hope how I dip out still fine by me
Hope how I end out still fine by me and you

Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want

Don't think I don't take it serious, laugh at adversity
Don't think my methods delirious unless you my adversary
Sometimes I chuckle at the struggle not knowing the future
Thinking why should I continue if I knew that I'd lose it
What if hell freezes over and I never accomplish
Long list of things that I got then I run out of options
Sometimes I swear I'm behind everyone else
That I'm frozen stuck on the shelf
Hope for betterment of myself
And for myself I am better above the weather no sweater
Said we all gonna bloom
Think back to times in Chicago
Coats over costumes, snot over nostrils and grey clouds and green trees
If my interest had peaked there it would've been different
Surrounded by potential I'd be careful how I spent it
Concentrated creative weapon but too bliss it feel like heaven
So I shouldn't put it back to when I was seven

Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope that I'm still the same that you want
Hope I don't grow cold
Hope I remain bold
Hope that I'm still the same that you want

I should be content now but I'm not
Still dreaming about all the time I wasted down on the spot
It's redundant, but I keep causing myself trouble
It's redundant, but I keep causing myself trouble
I walk and I talk and I progress everyday
Hope I don't run away, hope I stay, nothing changed
The fundamentals in place, not the chains from my brain
Keep the smile straight face
It's not a chapter, it's a volume I'm in place
It's my play, hope I act it out well, hope it's great
Fuck I miss y'all cuz I know we ain't stay the same way
And I know that time and time again connections break the same way
Enemies turned to friends and bad guys, my pals
Hope I see you all in the crowd since that's all I've got waiting for me
As much as I rap about bitches and niggas that fuck with me
My love for people trumps on me and I sincerely hope you all
