Mani Coolin - Hope lyrics

rate me

[Intro:]

Take four!

No more I did this!

You gonna get it right this time!

I’ve been thinking too much

I’ve been thinking if I don’t make it, but I do too much

Never wanted to fail, but losing never knew such

Knew too many rappers that make it, what I face with?

Backwards, back to back, trying to keep my mind attack.

Take two steps forward, don’t take none back!

I don’t take shit back that I ever did,

Cause all that shit I went through got me right here.

It’s like I’m one foot out, and I’m one foot in

And slept in my own bed in like three years,

But I’m up next if you ask some of my peers

Fans in different states, all songs, no mixtapes

So long I’ve been great, so long for old bitches,

I roll with my niggas don’t know about you, niggas

On tour with my niggas I’ve been

But your niggas might be, still bagging groceries

And now I don’t get down like that.

All my homies gotta shout like me

I’m shouting so one day make my momma proud of me.

Tell my pops made it, I ain’t had to sell white

Just a lil weed to keep my pockets softee.

Always low key, a lot of people know me

What they know me? they know the old me, it is a new me!

I ain’t doing all this shit to be the same old me

Chasing all the dumb bitches sleeping on my momma couch

Kicking in with dumb niggas, got kicked out my momma house.

No job, fuck school! I’ll let out this boy shit

But if you ain’t doing that, you’re looking like a fool here,

Ain’t nobody hearing that, ain’t no room for a broke nigga,

Cause anybody else is looking like a joke, nigga!

You know that shit ain’t cool, don’t let that shit be you

Cry until they come up in lap, till the sun up

I’m trying to be ... you’re trying to be runner

If you’re trying to get hope then you’re one of us

Still holding our hope on a straight, let it climb up!
