[Produced by Ran Reed] [Intro: Felicia Horowitz Sample] Isn't it great to live in a time, where hope has unprecedented reach and because of the information age, that we live in today, hope is now accessible to each and every one of us. Thank you for listening [Hook: LoVel] The diamond in your eyes, is shining through the night, I see its all inside of you (Hope) The fire in your soul, will never let you fall, it's always burning bright for you [Verse 1] I came out the hood wit' better dreams, wit' better scenes Of scenaries I could see, to be all that I could be And more, so I explore, observing everything I saw Every lesson was raw, every blessing absorbed (Hope) No hand out's, your mans out, wit' grams out On the block wit' no planned route, so that ain't pan out In due time, the world 'ill be mine, I kept my eyes on the prize And realized, that everything that I survived Shows and proves I was meant to be here, what a blessing to breathe air Believe you can achieve and you'll be there Yeah, I thought I would grow rich, off coke bricks What you expect from a broke kid, that go get (Hope) Determined mind that's so set, to blow next Wit' flows sick wit' a cold spit, and no sweat I persevered through my worst years, incarcerated All praises due to the Most High, thank God I made it [Hook] [Verse 2] Life's a challenge, wit' malice it throw you off balance What really matters is how you grab it and how you at it Means not what happens to you, but how you respond to it So live your life laughing brutal and move calm through it You never know when you only one step away from Seeing success, from all your stress, since day one Most never make it 'cause they gave up and laid up But stay so motivated, greater later, paid up Hater's they hate it, but I guess it's one less of a friend Just be your greatest, let success be your best revenge My gla** never half empty, see it half full Better to do what you want, than what you have too So when you feeling hopeless, try to maintain your focus Follow one course until successful, walk through doors you open Be in a better place, better state, meditate (Hope) Helping oppressed people elevate [Hook] [Verse 3] They wanna know how I persevered, when the worse was here How I fortified my mind in my worsest years I guess my glory's my story, they wanna tell it for me The accolades, the praise, they wanna pour it on me I'm just a humble kid from blocks where the jungle is Beast on this concrete, 'cause this ain't where the humble live So what the weak do, to stand up and reach through When the world is so lethal, it eats you (Hope) All I had was coke, then all I had was hope Anxious but I was patient, couldn't wait to explode Global and overdose, to see the bigger picture It's so hard against the odds, but when God is wit' ya (Hope) Who can be against you, I guess to be your best you Gotta go through hell, a cell was my hell I went through I persevered through my worst years, incarcerated All praises due to the Most High, thank God I made it (Hope) [Hook] © 2015 Supreme Music Publishing (BMI)/4th Letter Music (BMI)
