Hope

I'm on my way I'm comin'

Don't don't lose faith in me

I know you've been waitin'

Know you've been prayin' for my soul

Hope hope

Thirty years you been draggin' your feet

Tellin' me I'm the reason we're stagnant

Thirty years you've been claimin' you're honest 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 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

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'd 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 and gain some credibility

So they could feel accepted by a stranger

It's a person that can take the failures in their life

And turn them into motivation

It's believing in yourself when no one else does

It's amazing

What a little bit of faith can 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 of my life holdin' on to things I never should've kept

Full of hatred

Years of my life carryin' a lot of baggage

That I should've walked away from

Years of 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'd have never hit rock bottom

Would I be the person that I am today

I don't believe so

I'm a prime example of what happens when you

Choose to not accept defeat and face your demons

Took me thirty 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 'bout

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

Thirty years of running thirty years of searching

Thirty years of hurting thirty years of pain

Thirty years of fearful thirty years of anger

Thirty years of empty thirty years of shame

Thirty years of broken thirty years of anguish

Thirty years of hopeless thirty years of

Hey

Thirty years of never thirty years of maybe

Thirty years of later thirty years of fake

Thirty years of hollow thirty years of sorrow

Thirty years of darkness thirty years of

Nate

Thirty years of baggage thirty years of sadness

Thirty years of stagnant thirty years of chains

Thirty years of anxious thirty years of suffering

Thirty years of torment thirty years of

Wait

Thirty years of bitter thirty years of lonely

Thirty 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

Reins
