Hopeful

Bars and Melody

Please help me God, I feel so alone
I'm just a kid, how can I take it on my own?
I've cried so many tears writing this song
Trying to fit in, where do I belong?
I wake up every day, don't wanna leave my home
My Momma's asking me why I'm always alone
To scared to say, to scared to holla
I'm walking to school with sweat around my collar
I'm just a kid, I don't want no stress
My nerves are bad, my life's a mess
The names ya call me they hurt real bad
I wanna tell my mom she's having trouble with my dad
I feel so threat, there's no where to turn
Come to school don't wanna fight, I wanna learn
So please Mr. Bully², tell me what I've done
Y'know I have no dad, I'm living with my mom

Cuz I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away,
And be hopeful (hopeful)
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Just be hopeful

Why do you trip at the end of the day...
I didn't ask to be born, now I have to pay
I ain't got no money, take all I have
When I give it to you, I search through my bags
I feel so scared when you shoved³ me down
You kick me punch me throw me to the ground
When I asked you, yo what have I done?
You hit me again and make fun of my mom

Cuz I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away,
And be hopeful (hopeful)
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Just be hopeful

What I wear is all I have,
We lost our home, I'm living from a bag.
Yo Mr Bully, help me please
I'm flesh and blood, accept me please
Hey Mr Bully I don't know what to do
My mind can't explain what I did to you
Mr Bully, take in all my pleas
And you'll see the day you bring me to my knees

Cuz I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today
Take this music and use it
Let it take you away,
And be hopeful (hopeful)
And He'll make a way
I know it ain't easy but that's okay
Just be hopeful
