Chuuwee – Hope lyrics

[Intro]
Mm, mm, mm, mm mm
As the world turns and burns, when the hell is you gon' learn?
I say another few police killings and we all gon' need a urn
(Damn, yea)

[Verse 1]
Wake and bake and I'm smokin'
Life today is no joke
This week the police are murderin'
And last month we had to change popes
I'm sweatin' blood in my tears
How I'm going still I don't know
I'm livin' simply off energy
I been thrivin' mainly off hope
This year I had to change hemispheres
I was glad they all see me go
I'm killin' shit and big pimpin' here
I'm just happy you all see me glow
I was stressin' out just to get up here
I was prayin' for all of this gold
They been plottin' plannin' how to kill us here cause they couldn't do it with a rope
We got to be better parents to the kids
We got to be great examples to our peers
We got to show more respect to one another
Got to stop runnin' away from our fears
We got to be more chill in the summer
Got to quit killin' over nothin' serious
We got to learn how to build on one and another
A river of tears we should build a bridge (shit!)

[Chorus]
We been stressin' out just to get up here but we finally made it up the slope
Been a long time since we've been up here they was hangin' niggas by a rope
I can't even tell you how we did it we was 'bout to quit it then we made it gold
I been livin' simply off energy I been thrivin' mainly on hope
We were stressin' out just to get up here but we finally made it up the slope
Been a long time since we been up here they was hangin' niggas by a rope
I can't even tell you how we did it we was 'bout to quit it then we made it gold
I been livin' simply off energy I been thrivin' mainly on hope

[Bridge]
Mm, mm, mm, mm mm!
As the world turns and burns, when the fuck will you learn?
I think another few more police killings and we all gon' need an urn, shit!

[Verse 2]
Woke up on the wrong side of the bed
I can't get these demons out of my head
So I just been smoking gas mixed with liq
Tryin' to do everything that I can
I just turned 25 I'm a man
Too old to ask somebody for a hand
And I'm never waitin' for a handout
That makes me a coward nigga I'll be damned [...]
I been thrivin' mainly off energy
Middle finger to all of my enemies
My rapport is based on chemistry
Me and these niggas don't go
I been watchin' out for the end of me
I just pray the boast stay in flow
They been thinkin' how can they kill a nigga 'cause they couldn't do it with a rope
I pray I make it to a challenger for a pair of twins I just hope
Wake and bake and I'm smokin' daily 'cause life today is no joke
This year we 'bout to change presidents and last month we had to change popes
Been a very long time coming I ain't think we would ever make it up the slope

[Chorus]
We been stressing out just to get up here but we finally made it up the slope
Been a long time since we been up here they was hanging niggas by a rope
I can't even tell you how we did it we was 'bout to quit it then we made it gold
I been living simply off energy I been thriving mainly on hope
We been stressin' out just to get up here but we finally made it up the slope
Been a long time since we been up here they was hangin' niggas by a rope
I can't even tell you how we did it we was 'bout to quit it then we made it gold
I been livin' simply off energy I been thrivin' mainly on hope
