Xpression - Never Lose Hope

It’s been a journey through the wilderness
But made it out the Forrest/

Travelled a great distance
On a quest for my Fortunes/

A sacred mission
Holy Spirit reinforce him/

Hoping for endorsements
Praying these doors open/

Waiting on my moment
Of clarity
Feeling hopeless/

Cold nights
Under the street lights I was homeless/
Smoked dope a couple times when I was at my lowest/
Didn’t care if I lived or died
Just wanted to end the bullshit /
Only friend by my side
Was this girl that I barely noticed/
She was down to ride and for me she’d
Do anything/
I was just a bum
But still gave her the wedding ring/
Knew that I was broke but one day would give her everything/
Still trying to keep that promise
But sometimes it gets to me/
Cause now we got a daughter and I
Gotta grind harder for my family/
It’s been rough ..
Just trying to get my bread up/
They say I got talent but some times I wanna give up /
Cause what’s the point of having all these rapping skills/
If not one single song Ive dropped has ever paid a bill/
Let’s keep real.....

Yea

Let’s keep it real ...

Let’s keep it real......


Gotta Keep your head up high
When Your feeling so low/
Never give up/
And Never lose hope/
It’s been a long road /
It’s hard to let it go/
But some times in life
We gotta realize
What means the most/

I Hold the answers
To ever question that Ive been searching for/
Dig deep into myself
I know what my heart is longing
For/
I won’t settle for less
Success is what I’m pushing for/
A nine to five couldn’t provide
The life that I’m aiming for/
Some say to quit the music cause that shit don’t pay/
Some say don’t quit the music cause I’m on my way/
On my grind everyday
Writing song after song
But it’s sad to say I still have to depend on my moms/
Some think I’m rich and famous
And they got it all wrong /
Thousand dollar features but my
Bank Account over drawn/
Hmmm...
The truth is a sad story
Got a dream
But nobody will invest in it for me/
So this cream I make
Is all a scheme on the low/
Only close friends I deal with
Are the ones who truly know/
Hustle and flow/
I Take that dirty money
Then head to the studio/
Sometimes that’s just how it goes
Am I saying too much....
Am I speaking too real
For y’all to feel me this much....
I just spit it from the heart
And tell you what’s on my mind/
It’s been weighing on me
Heavy cause I’m running outta time/
Need to blow up I need to come up fast/
Cause everyday Im wondering if it will be my last/

Gotta Keep your head up high
When Your feeling so low/
Never give up/
And Never lose hope/
It’s been a long road /
It’s hard to let it go/
But some times in life
We gotta realize
What means the most/


Cold winter
Trying to make it out the blizzard/
In a Better state of mind
Starting to see the bigger picture /
Been fighting the diabetes
But I feel Im getting sicker/
But I won’t give up
Cause I ain’t ready to surrender/
My health is in bad shape
And struggle to lose weight/
Need to get myself together
Before it’s too late/
Got a daughter to raise /
A family to nourish /
A wife to look after and
Need to be here for my
Parents/
They getting older
And Gonna need a son to count on/
When the table turns
I gotta be the one they rely on/
No brother no sister and I’m the only child/
Effected by their divorce it fucked me up for a while/
Had resentment towards both
It was hard for me to smile/
Left alone in the middle they don’t know the pain I felt/
I thought it was all good and then my mom was moving out/
I still can’t understand it so sometimes I blame myself/
For the reason that they split up
I know I put them through hell/
Struggling with mental health
And medication never helped/
Now I’m older ....
And I realize it was all me/
Made my mom hate my dad and my dad hate me/
If there’s anybody to blame
Then fuck it blame me/
I was the bad seed that ruined the family/
It’s my fault and I accept it/
Now later on in life I regret it/
Trying to make sense of it all
But maybe it was meant to be/
Cause now I got a daughter
And a beautiful wife next to me/
This love I feel is too real to be a mistake/
I Had to lose it all just to finally find grace/
Yea....
Said I had to lose it all just to finally find grace/


Gotta Keep your head up high
When Your feeling so low/
Never give up/
And Never lose hope/
It’s been a long road /
It’s hard to let it go/
But some times in life
We gotta realize
What means the most/
