JTronius - Hope lyrics

[Intro - Tarik MacFarland and Akrobatik ) Thank you It just puts you in the moment. I'm not even thinking about where I'm at Im just - my headphones on on the train I can't wait to just sit across and listen to it Once I do this one And what, this dude got pipes too. When he lays it down it's gonna... (yeahh) [Chorus - Akrobatik and JTronius] (Hope) My city need it (Hope) My family need it (Hope) My people need it (we all need hope) (Hope) the whole world need it (yeahh) [Verse 1: Akrobatik] You can feed your seed if you can feed your weed habit Opportunities like these, indeed – grab it Our community is in need, can we please have it Young, intelligent minds conceive magic While neglect breeds tragic outcomes I understand a sinkhole is hard to climb out from But yo – we have to make it, so why procrastinate And make the future generations wonder why they have to wait Get out and see the world, your block will blind you And you can't escape things you need to leave behind you I don't mean to preach, I'm just trying to remind you To not be another statistic with a line through I know the bills be compilin', cops profilin' While you're with your crew freestylin' I seen this girl with no arms, smilin' Same time, I was mad about a late flight – I was wildin' [Chorus: JTronius and Akrobatik] At the end of the day, we all need hope So if you ask me ‘bout the scar on my chest I'll tell you on some Man of Steel sh**, ‘that ain't a ‘S'' When I thought I was done and at the end of my rope They tattooed my body with the symbol for hope, uh-huh (Hope) My city need it (Hope) My family need it (Hope) My people need it (we all need hope) (Hope) the whole world need it (ohhh, yeahh) We all need hope, yeahhh [Verse 2: Akrobatik] Hope is something that we gotta maintain No matter what the evils attacking your mainframe Bailing out is ill, son ‘Cuz I have yet to meet the brother that gave up and still won In poker, if you got a chip and a chair You could end up the millionaire that's doing flips in the air Overtime buzzer-beater. Sudden d**h goal It's that k**er instinct that was never left cold And I'mma k** sh** until my last breath – old as f** Long as my body stays holdin' up And even after that I'll still have something to say to ya I'll rock it like Dilla or Professor Xavier I'll let my students know they're not mutants And redirect them from the pollutants that got ‘em shootin' each other The ones in control don't love us But we're brothers, we're brothers (come on) [Chorus: JTronius and Akrobatik] At the end of the day, we all need hope So if you ask me ‘bout the scar on my chest I'll tell you on some Man of Steel sh**, ‘that ain't a ‘S'' When I thought I was done and at the end of my rope They tattooed my body with the symbol for hope, uh-huh (Hope) My city need it (Hope) My family need it (Hope) My people need it (Hope) the whole world need it (we all need hope) (Hope) My city need it (Hope) My family need it (ohh) (Hope) My people need it (Hope) the whole world We all need hope
