XL Hope

I gotta stay focused on myself
A lot of niggas left me alone when I needed help
Like the bottom of the shelf
I've been slowing down on wealth
I'm trying to pick shit back up, fuck how I felt
Cause the wrong move could get you dealt with
I was always taught to ball hard, Raymond Felton
Bitch tried to play games with my heart and then it melted
I was on the block even in the cold, we was trying to sell shit
Lately I've been living off of hope, XL shit

Lately I've been living off of hope, trying to get it right
People never understand the vision, till it's out of sight
So many times I ain't want shit
But I was talking to my mom, she told me never quit
Brody ain't trying to work no job, he's steady loading sticks
The day before T got locked, he gave me forty bricks
I'm out in Harlem with the Globetrotters, fuck the Knicks
I'm bout to tangle all my dreads and turn them shits to wicks
I'm really bouta tangle all my dreadlocks
Forty make your head pop
Young money, cash money I could make your bed rock
Bitch throw it back like Chris Selle and I ain't talking bout the Red Sox
It's crazy how these niggas change, like what the fuck happened to Kevin Knox
I knew that life wasn't meant for me when they threw me in a box
Taking a step back on these fun niggas like CJ Cox
We sipping passion fruit, high tech on the rocks
Gucci loafers on my feet but we was wearing rocks

I gotta stay focused on myself
A lot of niggas left me alone when I needed help
Like the bottom of the shelf
I've been slowing down on wealth
I'm trying to pick shit back up, fuck how I felt
Cause the wrong move could get you dealt with
I was always taught to ball hard, Raymond Felton
Bitch tried to play games with my heart and then it melted
I was on the block even in the cold, we was trying to sell shit
Lately I've been living off of hope, XL shit
