[Twista talking]
Man, I know we had a lot of
tragedies lately.
I just wanna say rest in
peace to Aaliyah,
Rest in peace to Left
Eye,
Rest in peace to Jam Master Jay,
And
everybody lost in the Twin Towers,
And
everybody lost period.
All we got is
HOPE!!

[VERSE 1 (Twista)]
I wish the
way I was living could stop, serving
rocks,
Knowing the cops is hot when I’m
on the block, And I
Wish my brother woulda
made bail,
So I won’t have to travel 6
hours to see him in jail, And I
Wish that my
grandmother wasn’t sick,
Or that we
would just come up on some stacks and hit a lick,
And I (I wish)
Wish my homies wouldn’t
have to suffer,
When the streets get the upper
had on us and we lose a brother, And I
Wish I
could go deep in a zone,
And lift the spirits
of the world with the words with in this song,
And I (I wish)
Wish I could teach a could
teach a soul to fly,
Take away the pain out
cha hands and help you hold them hi, And
I
Wish God never gave the men power
To be
able to hurt the people inside the Twin Towers,
And I (I wish)
Wish God woulda turned they
hearts righteous,
When they started to take
innocent lives and become snipers, But uh
We
will never break, don’t underestimate, we
shall motivate,
And we gotta pray, all we got
is faith.
Instead of thinking about who gonna
die to day,
The Lord is gonna help you feel
better, so you ain’t gotta cry
today.
Sit at the light so long,
And then
we gotta move straight forward, cuz we fight so
strong,
So when right go wrong,
Just say a
little prayer, get ya money man, life go
on!!!
Let’s HOPE!

[CHORUS
(Cee-Lo)]
Cuz I’m hopeful, yes I am,
hopeful for today,
Take this music and use
it
Let it take you away,
And be hopeful
(hopeful) and he’ll make a way
I know it
ain’t easy but that’s
okay.
Let’s be hopeful!

[VERSE 2
(Twista)]
I wish that you could show some
love,
Instead of hatin so much when you see
some other people commin up (I wish)
I wish I
could teach the world to sing,
Watch the music
and have ‘em trippin of the joy I bring,
(shiit)
I wish that we could hold
hands,
Listen instead of dissin lessons from a
grown man, And I (I wish)
Wish the families
that lack, but got love, get some stacks
Brand
new shack and a lack that’s on dubs, And
I
Wish we could keep achieving wonders,
See
the vision of the world through the eyes of Stevie
Wonder, (you feel me) (I wish)
And I hope all
the kids eat,
And don’t nobody in my
family see six feet, (ya dig)
I hope them
mothers stain’ strong,
You can make it
whether you wit him or your mans gone, And I (I
wish)
Wish I could give every celly some
commissary,
And the po po bring the heat on
them priest like they did R. Kelly, And I
Wish
that DOC could scream again
And bullets could
reverse so Pac and Biggie breath again, (shit) (I
wish)
Then one day they could speak again,
I
wish that we only saw good news every time we look
at CNN,
I wish that enemies could talk,
And
that super homie Christopher Reeves could still
walk, (I wish)
I wish that we could walk a
path, stay doin the right thing
Hustle hard so
the kids maintain up in the game,
Let’s
HOPE

[CHORUS (Cee-Lo)]
Cuz I’m
hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today,
Take
this music and use it
Let it take you
away,
And be hopeful (hopeful) and he’ll
make a way
I know it ain’t easy but
that’s okay.
Let’s be
hopeful!

[VERSE 3 (Twista)]
Wish the
earth wasn’t so apocalyptic,
I try to
spread my message to the world the best way I can
give it,
We can make it always so
optimistic,
If you don’t listen gotta
live my life the best way I can live it,
I
pray for justice when we go to court,
Wish it
was all good so the country wouldn’t have
to go to war,
Why can’t we kick it and
just get em on,
And in the famous words of Mr.
King “Why can’t we all just get
along”,
Or we can find a better way to
shop and please, And I
Hope we find a better
way to cop a keys, And I
Wish everybody would
just stop and freeze,
And ask way are we
fulfillin these downfalls and prophecies,
You
can be wrong if it’s you doubting,
With
the faith of a must to see drinkin moon
mountains,
And only the heavenly father and
ease the hurt,
Just let it go and keep prayin
on your knees in church!!
And let’s
HOPE

[CHORUS (Cee-Lo) X2]
Cuz I’m
hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today,
Take this
music and use it
Let it take you away,
And
be hopeful (hopeful) and he’ll make a
way
I know it ain’t easy but
that’s okay.
Let’s be
hopeful!
