The Hope
MISTAH F.A.B.

[Intro:]

It's for the city man!

You already know what's going on, man

It's down the hope, man

Only niggas putting positivity back in the community, man


It ain't nothing wrong with being square man

They live long and young...

Handle your business!


If you're really from the streets

You ain't ... find that

I remember being young, watching moms buying crap

Riding by Saint Pablo, see my sister on the tray

Too embittered just to speak, can't drive in the light

I can't still see my daddy, nine after...

Or my... the only thing they kept from come

Rather chase the green, like a leprechaun

Streets coming... I keep the weapon on!

Face friends transform and they're decepticons

Nigga finding working, dirty cons, see you stepping on it!

Since my last album, man, I lost hell of folks

Some to the pen, some got smoked

When I see my mom and dad, I spit the homicide

..it made you go blind!

But I'm still standing here with a smile, smile

..saying why, why?


Hook:

I bring heaven to the hood, people say that I'm the hope

For all my niggas trapped in narcotics or selling dope

For all them girls lost, turned out walking this road

For all my real niggas on probation and parole!

This, this, this, this what the bottom is,

I've been down so long, getting down ain't an option

But, if you believe it, then you can achieve

And I ain't lying my niggas, shit, look at me!


Every day getting calls from the pen like:

Shoot me fifty, bro! Shoot me thous, shoot me ten!

Man, anything helps, we ain't doing twenty five

And everybody that you call it ain't better than your life

Folks locked up, better show your niggas love

You don't know how it's like getting letters wrote in blood

The day before I hit the road, told Milly, be safe!

We got on the road, Milly got shot with a K!

69 shots in his momma face, the type of shit a nigga can't face.

Type of text messages a nigga can't take

I'm a real ass nigga, type these niggas can't fake!

Niggas say I'm hitting... and they're saying that they're mobbing

Said they run the city, but they ain't even jogging

City on mind, nigga that's a...

If you niggas getting money, why you ain't giving back?


Hook:

I bring heaven to the hood, people say that I'm the hope

For all my niggas trapped in narcotics or selling dope

For all them girls lost, turned out walking this road

For all my real niggas on probation and parole!

This, this, this, this what the bottom is,

I've been down so long, getting down ain't an option

But, if you believe it, then you can achieve

And I ain't lying my niggas, shit, look at me!


Mayor of the city, I don't need no election

Good through the hood comes slide through the section

Tell the truth in a song, I charade my confession

Momma dying was a curse, I thought his birth was a blessing

City going crazy, that's why I'm giving back

Friend lying every time, that's where I'll be living at

Truth be told, I'm a modern day...

Organize another.. cause the guy...


Hook:

I bring heaven to the hood, people say that I'm the hope

For all my niggas trapped in narcotics or selling dope

For all them girls lost, turned out walking this road

For all my real niggas on probation and parole!

This, this, this, this what the bottom is,

I've been down so long, getting down ain't an option

But, if you believe it, then you can achieve

And I ain't lying my niggas, shit, look at me!


[Outro:]

Yeah, see one thing about these niggas, man

They don't tell you the good things about the streets

But ain't nobody gonna tell you about them

A hundred years in this, man

The best friends snitching,

The going to your homie funerals

Your best killing your best friend

You telling your partner momma is gonna be alright

And she looking at you like you didn't lost your mind!

They'll tell you about that!

Ain't nothing wrong about having your business, lil bro!

Go to school someday, the streets is overrated!
