deep magenta - hope. lyrics

(verse 1)
the cycle is starting all over again
but if we ignore it, then we can pretend
nah, shut up, and i don’t wanna be your friend
last night, you got me too close to the end
back in control of the driver’s seat
must be what a survivor sees
now i know how i rhyme and bleed
trying to escape for years, made it finally
i get up and dust off my shins
thankful i got a chance to redact on my sins
knowing this ain’t no way to live
amen, guess he really does forgive
and above all this, i’ll get to have some kids
never absent growing up, i know that sh+t k!lls
lead to taking shots, lead to taking pills
teach him to stay real, write down what he feels
flashback, had nothing to look forward to
my name popping up on early morning news
pulling out the stretcher, cause i don’t confess on
emptiness, no one i’m impressing
take my soul and sample as a lesson
listen to ‘em, or they’re seeking vengeance
unnoticed, gets too depressing
write it off cause i’m an adolescent
told my story, took six minutes
way i see it, i got no limits
poured my heart out, cause
in my mind, i used to only be a part tenant
used to only be a ride+along
i taught myself to use the microphone
help people who show the signs
then it won’t be they neck they knifing on
picture their name on a gravestone
still got alibis at a funeral?
brother grieving with a faint tone
he knew you wouldn’t help, assumable
everybody’s got a fighting chance
with them, i stand, the mark of a man
what’s the last words they were humming?
“if only you were to do something”
(verse 2)
+yawn+ i forgot what life’s like
but i feel what to die’s like
roll the dice on every night like
polarized about the limelight
count endorphins
bodies drop so much
morgues take walk+ins
i’m counting coffins
i know i’m at fault in this life
blessed with another night
second chance, make it right
riding back as the sun rises
when i get home, inspire young writers
none righteous till’ they hear it from others
lost in passion like new mothers
fascinated by their true wonders
how i feel this one summer
worked my ass off
in multiple facets of life i’m a newcomer
all that passion made me feel like atlas
weighing struggles, know i need an outlet
open+minded, i discovered rapping
ejected hate, i was the new captain
i felt like a million bucks, but
i know it wasn’t just dumb luck
reason that i’m in this position
if you feel hopeless, try and listen
calling shotgun wasn’t my decision
all the darkness wasn’t my decision
stuck in a loop of self+pity
refusing those who dealt with it
now i’m belting it, from my new mission
now i’m grateful to just live a day
all of you, i wanna hear you say:
can’t find hope until you give it away
