ettrick shepherd - hope is gone lyrics

[verse 1]
they wanna hear me dig up hatchets and scratch at the scabs and bruises
and interact with the odds that are stacked to the moon but if that’s what you want then that’s what i’ll do
they don’t care about the internal rhymes
they only wanna hear about internal turmoil
f+cking serves you right
it’s the law of attraction, you wonder why i work and fight?
i’ve never made waves in this game but somehow, some day i’ll turn the tides
cos i put i heart on the line for that sh+t
and then expected something back for it
i’m sorry, i had step back abit
because my album flopped and that hurt my pride
now i’m in a rut because no soul even heard it twice
nowadays every time i wanna murk the mic it just feels not worth it, why?
maybe because there’s nothing to gain
but there’s lose either, f+ck it i ain’t leaving
not ’til i break even
n0body’s listening in, i nearly caved but i’ll stay for the same reason
i was trapped in bad headsp+ce, i used to see rap as my soulmate
but i lacked maturity and i don’t really wanna go back to my old ways
got the will and rhythm of a champion like coldplay
but i feel like i’ll forever be an anonymous rapper or no name

[hook]
i’m giving up, all hope is gone
i ripped up the paper i wrote this on
ain’t n0body gonna know this song
i’m giving up, all hope is gone
i ripped up the paper i wrote this on
ain’t n0body gonna know this song
[verse 2]
i used to think that i had what it took
the beats were a vibe and the rapping was good
with the dopest rhyme patterns
but i cringe when i listen back to the hooks
roses are red and my garden is grey
perhaps this is the end of the path that i paved
it’s been hard to think what i feel but it’s been much harder to say
first time that i went hard on a tape
i had people trash it and laugh in my face
like i didn’t capture my darkest of days
or expose myself when i’m harbouring pain
so far what i’ve made
and all of this art that i gave you
hasn’t been appreciated
but i’m not even half of the way through
