Mike Check - HOPE lyrics
rate meBefore I let go oh, oh, oh
So here we are page one with a story ever gone
Scorny kid, plenty grass stains from who knows what.
Free spirit, watched dad play the music to his son in his truck
…as soon as it comes on.
Took a strong interest in it, then it turned in this and drums
Then a pen in his hand has a story to erupt
Can’t put a finger on it, but because he grew up
Had this thing he had for music transforming into love.
And before you know it, everything is flowing
Killer competition, now they’re starting to take notice
So which rap back beside her back, no time for play
And eat, sleep, pray, that’s my every single day
Think that if your whole home town knows you great
But you ain’t know,
You’re doing something wrong with your hate
This is something about timing, mind had to wait
But I’m ready for it now, this is all I got to say!
Hook:
I’m holding on to hope just one last time
If I let go, then I might fall a million miles
So look into my eyes and touch the sky
Before I go I gotta give this one last try!
Before I let go, oh, oh, oh!
Before I let go, oh, oh, oh!
Before I let go, oh, oh, oh!
Before I let go, before I let go!
I’m sick of hearing…
Another prolong!
Damn, get another play going so wrong
Another day thinking, hell, could I go on?
Backpacks where I’m this close to saying so long.
But then I see my grandma, she praying all long
Just to look into her eyes made me so strong
Like… young man go forward
All I needed was your strength, still I say no more
That’s when I hit the pad, write another dope song
And then I hit the lab, young and that goes off
All falls in the place and we’re going on tour.
Yeah, this is all I ever dreamed about for sure
When I stay so long in that studio fall
And same nights I slept on that studio floor
Cause now it’s my first show and I got 54 more
All flashes in front of me right before I go home, home, home!
Hook:
I’m holding on to hope just one last time
If I let go, then I might fall a million miles
So look into my eyes and touch the sky
Before I go I gotta give this one last try!
Before I let go, oh, oh, oh!
Before I let go, oh, oh, oh!
Before I let go, oh, oh, oh!
Before I let go, before I let go!
