Thelonious Martin - Hope lyrics

[Verse 1:MAK & Negrostotle] [MAK] I see shows when it comes to flows I see money when the truth's exposed Plant dollars then I watch them grow Good investments I call that talent Being myself and selling is a balance Couldn't push tees without the malice I don't think of those who oppose I pray for'em, keep'em out my mind Sound, in fact that's how I grind Keep it together like marriage defined Like who cares how I pronounce words I make ya bounce and nod like yes sir Keep your head up like the Sky's The Limit On a Quest for Love my Roots define infinite So deep and meaningful I could find you in it Don't mean to confine you with sentences that I invented! [Stotle] Just know that you're the best, the best in your own mind Perhaps you were blessed, out of your own kind Obstacles could stop you, it's optional, I mind you It's a rocky road, feel the heavy load? Your life's ridin' on the line, make your move now You expect to shine, just think and wonder how Failure is an option, only if you let it Better yet, experience, frankly, I can bet it Motherf**as' say they're ready, the battle just started Stay stiff and steady, it's better than departin' Keep on the offense, they wouldn't have a chance Either tense you make it, from the greats, you advance Enhance your willpower, in case it gets weak Like a feeble flower, go head and reach your peak You've hit the third base; you're up in the league Don't go on the chase, you'll be so fatigued! [Hook: Stotle] Focus on the prize, focus on the win Focus on the highs, f** all the sins The bridges come up, it's up to you to cross em' Other people run up, it's time for you to boss em' Remember all the rules: show no mercy! f** up all the fools, they will try to curse thee Feel the pool of perseverance once you hit the waters You'll feel some adherence, and see that you have slaughtered On the next challenge, keep it bold too Avoid all the malice until you're old, true Stotle! Mak! Peace! Peace!
