Yo C-Murder, you believe all these people they call me hopeless.
[C-Murder]
They say when your hopeless your not expected to do good, be successful.
And it`s by all means impossible to accomplish any goals.
[Lady TRU]
They say I`m hopeless
[Sons of Funk]
They say I`m hopeless, hopeless, hopeless
[Lady TRU]
Like a bullet with a hole in it
[Sons of Funk]
Ohh, like a bullet with a hole in it, oh yeah
[Magic]
Look here, it`s not easy I struggled to get in this position
Taking my people out the ghetto was my only mission
I was jacking and strong arming accomplished i done changed
Making money living good I`m out of the game
See as I refused to see good in my accomplishments
All I ever get is dirty looks, never compliments
I figure jealousy, wishing that yall could be me
Cause I`m living larger then life at the age of twentythree (ha ha)
Alot of pessimistic people is speaking about my lifestyle
So when I enter the center I look for the smiles
Many expected me to go down the tubes
Now the same people wishing that they could be in my shoes
But I`m the one they call hopeless
Lord forgive em for thinking that I was worthless
I forgive and forget
And I learn from every life experience
I hope yall feel every word cause this is real it gets
They call me hopeless
[Lady TRU]
They say I`m hopeless
[Sons of Funk]
They say I`m hopeless, hopeless, hopeless
[Lady TRU]
Like a bullet with a hole in it
[Sons of Funk]
Like a bullet with a hole in it, bullet with a hole in it, oh
[Lady TRU]
They say I`m worthless
[Sons of Funk]
They say I`m worthless, worthless, worthless
[Lady TRU]
And I`m up to my head in it
[Sons of Funk]
And I`m up to my head in it, up to my head in it, oh
[C-Murder]
They said I`m hopeless and I never make it
They doubt it, call me an outcast because I`m bout it
Now why you wanna label me and say I`m a thug
I never said I wasn`t because this ghetto is in my blood
But I maintain through poverty and tears
My only wish was that I make it to see another year
I left my dreams up in the penn, feel my constant struggle
And one man against a nation, damn I miss my brother
I walk a path to a dead end cause I`m lonely
A childhood full of rainy days kept me homeless
I always wondered was I cursed
Since birth I felt I never had a fair chance in life on this wreched earth
My lonely memories of the past, they got me thinking
I don`t wanna see the future, but die in vain
I ask the Lord will he forgive me
Before I leave this world I wanna live a better life because I`m hopeless
[Lady TRU]
They say I`m hopeless
[Sons of Funk]
They say I`m hopeless, hopeless, hopeless
[Lady TRU]
Like a bullet with a hole in it
[Sons of Funk]
Like a bullet with a hole in it, bullet with a hole in it, oh
[Lady TRU]
They say I`m worthless
[Sons of Funk]
They say I`m worthless, worthless, worthless
[Lady TRU]
And I`m up to my head in it
[Sons of Funk]
I`m up to my head in it, yeah
[Lady TRU]
They say It`s hopeless
[Sons of Funk]
They say It`s hopeless, hopeless, hopeless
[Lady TRU]
For me to make it out the ghetto now
[Sons of Funk]
For me to make it out the ghetto
[Lady TRU]
They say I`m struggling
[Sons of Funk]
They say I`m struggling, yeah
[Lady TRU]
Like a heart with no love in it
[Sons of Funk]
Like a heart with no love, heart with no love
