Hope
VERSE

I remember wasn’t so long ago

We had a one-room shack and the living was low

And mama by herself, raised me and my bro.

Wasn’t easy but she did it with the little that flowed

Worked hard got us off to school everyday

Keep our eyes on the star though the skies were gray

Gave us drive to survive really showed us the way

Now I really understand what she was trying to say

Chorus

She said son there’ll be times when the tides are high

And the boat may be rocky, you can cry 

Just never give up,(you can never give up) ( repeat )

In this life you can lead if you only believe

In order to achieve what you need 

You can never give up,(you can never give up) ( repeat )

CHO:

And it’s hope that keeps me holding on 

It’s just hope that makes me carry on ( repeat )


Verse

Home grown couldn’t have made it alone

I got a wonderful life, two kids of my own

With a strong foundation that was carved in stone 

Thank my mother for the love that made my house a home

Makes me wonder sometimes if it was meant to be

All this for a humble little guy like me

All ever really wanted was a family

Teach my kids the same values that she gave to me 

Hook And Chorus

HOOK

We nah turn no stepper, things a go better

Never let yourself be overcome by pressure

Cool yah me bredda, have faith instead a

Sid-dung and a watch and all a fight one another

Blaze like fire,nah go retire 

God nah sleep and a him inspire

We fi reach higher a that him require

Haffi mek we mark before the time expire 

chorus ( repeat)
