Etrou - Full Circle lyrics

[Chorus] I am hoping that my problems never make me change my ways, I been Dreaming of Paradise, wishing for better days, and I Know that nothing's promised to remain the way we say, but I Promise tomorrow will be better than today and I knowwwww, I know, I know, I know Someone bigger got a greater plan, than where I am, and it shows And I knowwww, I know If I die today, my smile will stay, I'll Let this gravity go [Verse 1] Yo, I done seen the world in a couple of ways, but observation got me feelin like I shoulder the load I mean, it's been a little while since I felt the bliss of ignorance and knowledge seems to me another boulder to hold & I'm painted as a criminal before I ever speak by many eyes and realize that kids I grew up in church Beside never will see the things, that they had dreamed to see cuz scenery ain't much from inside of hearse But all the shoestrings on telephone wires and live news of the night could never change what I knew to to a t That they could take me out the hood, in a plane, car, train or handcuffs, but they'll never take the hood outta me And yeah, it sounds cliché, but I prefer cliché to afraid cuz while my people live a life out of fear I just close my eyes, know my soul flies high, grip the pen so my emotions are what everyone hears [Chorus] I am hoping that my problems never make me change my ways I been Dreaming of Paradise, wishing for better days, and I Know that nothing's promised to remain the way we say, but I Promise tomorrow will be better than today and I knowwwww, I know, I know, I know Someone bigger got a greater plan, than where I am, and it shows [Bridge] So imma keep my head up Even if it seems I should duck And wear my heart out Even if it seems I should tuck Baby let your hair down Cuz any day above ground's another day to be proud of Never let the love go Even when it seems it should break And let your hope grow Even when it's hard to relate Cuz we both know That the world, it needs, you and me [Verse 2] My pops told me that greatness is what awaits me, in spite of the world we knew to be cruel But even still, he had a fear of things to come when the guns was a running drum cuz he worried if I would make it school I told him no one ever thought we woulda made it as far as we have And when I get to California, just promise me, dad Remember every man and shorty you taught and who came before me, I'm carrying every soul wit me off of the ave! This for Carter's Barber Shop, Carter and Burt... I know you cutting up in heaven, so pardon the hurt This for JMills who was crashing the boards, packing the gyms back in '09, they would have to record And Elijah, happy belated and Diamond we miss you boy I know in Heaven that you finally free, and I see It isn't My place to be wallowing in defeat Cuz I seen stories truncated that probably coulda been me And I'm blessed Yeah, I'm blessed I told my mama take a breath, I told my sister we can rest I love my family to the d**h, cuz all they wanted was the best
