paroles de chanson HOPE - NF

Hope
I'm on my way, I'm coming
Don't, don't lose faith in me
I know you've been waitin'
I know you've been prayin' for my soul
Hope
Hope

30 years you been draggin' your feet
Tellin' me I'm the reason we're stagnant
30 years you've been claimin' your rightness
And promisin' progress, but where's it at?
I don't want you to feel like a failure
I know this hurts
But I gave you your chance to deliver
Now it's my turn

Don't get me wrong
Nate, you've had a great run
But it's time to
Give the people somethin' different
So without further ado, I'd
Like to introduce my
My album, my album, my album
My album, my album, my album
Hope

What's my definition of success?
Listening to what your heart says
Standing up for what you know is
Right, while everybody else is
Tucking their tail between their legs (okay)
What's my definition of success?
Creating something no one else can
Bein' brave enough to dream big
Grindin' when you're told to just quit
Givin' more when you got nothin' left

It's a person that'll take a chance on
Somethin' they were told could never happen
It's a person that can see the bright side
Through the dark times when there ain't one
It's when someone who ain't never had nothin'
Ain't afraid to walk away from more profit
'Cause they rather do somethin' that they really love
And take the pay cut

It's a person that would never waiver
Or change who they are
Just to try to gain some credibility
So they could feel accepted by a stranger or
It's a person that can take the failures in their life
And turn them into motivation
It's believin' in yourself when no one else does
It's amazing

What a little bit of faith can't do
If you don't even believe in you
Why would you think or expect anybody else
That's around you to?
I done did things, that I regret
I done said things I can't take back
Was a lost soul, at a cross road
Who had no hope, but I changed that

I spent years on my life holdin' on to things
I never shouldn't have kept, full of hatred
Years on my life carryin' a lot of baggage
That I should've walked away from
Years on my life wishin' I was someone different
Lookin' for some validation
Years of my life tryna fill the void
Pretending I was in-
"They get it"

Growing pain's a necessary evil
Difficult to go through, yes, but beneficial
Some would say having a mental breakdown is a negative thing
Which on one hand I agree with
On the other hand it was the push I needed
To get help and start the healing process
See, if I'da never hit rock bottom
Would I be the person that I am today?
I don't believe so

I'm a perfect example of what happens when you
Choose to not accept defeat and face your demons
Took me 30 years to realize that if you wanna get
The opportunity to be the greatest version of yourself
Sometimes you got to be someone you're not
To hear the voice of reason
Having kids will make you really take a step back
And look in the mirror
At least for me that's what it did, I

Wake up every day and pick my son up
Hold him in my arms and let him know he's loved (loved)
Standing by the window questioning if
Dad is ever going to show up (up)
Isn't something he's goin' to have to worry about
Don't get it twisted, that wasn't a shot
Mama, I forgive you
I just don't want him to grow up
Thinkin' that he'll never be enough

30 years of running, 30 years of searching
30 years of hurting, 30 years of pain
30 years of fearful, 30 years of anger
30 years of empty, 30 years of shame
30 years of broken, 30 years of anguish
30 years of hopeless, 30 years of (hate)
30 years of never, 30 years of maybe
30 years of later, 30 years of fake

30 years of hollow, 30 years of sorrow
30 years of darkness, 30 years of (Nate)
30 years of baggage, 30 years of sadness
30 years of stagnant, 30 years of change
30 years of anxious, 30 years of suffering
30 years of torment, 30 years of (wait)
30 years of bitter, 30 years of lonely
30 years of pushing everyone away

"You'll never evolve," "I know I can change"
"We are not enough," "We are not the same"
"You don't have the heart," "You don't have the strength"
"You don't have the will," "You don't have the faith"
"You'll never be loved,You'll never be safe
Might as well give up," "Not running away"
"You don't have the guts," "You're the one afraid"
I'm the one in charge, I'm taking the (no)

I'm taking the-
