Hopes & Dreams lyrics

Ho, ho, hey, the way my selectable delectables be written

You off a twang 'cause my thang is respectable

I get in where I fit in

No secrets, nothing's hidden

I check the heads bobbing and throbbing 'cause of written material

Milking y'all like cereal

Ethereal messages, portrayal of my Jesus Christ

I guess, it's just the way I chose to use my chords to bring the news

Instead of pain, I realize there's power in the name

Zzzz goes the lightning; it's crackling, it's frightening

Much needed calling card to prevent from falling hard,

Hitting your head on pavement

You need to heed my wavelengths

Precocious with the info; now why you living sinful?

Your nature's beginning to swallow you, friends beginning to follow you

The devil's pulling strings to demolish and abolish you

Like foetuses, his cohorts - the Roscos and Cletuses

Write it like Carman, with the intent of harming

Attacks in every area, deadly like malaria and viruses

I can see the hurt in you irises

"Why was this turmoil aimed at me?" you cursed

Put in reverse, I suspect aptly

My start is required, and questions - you just heard it

Take a script, brought to life, make some changes and reword it

Take Holly with the Wally ???

Put asunder, scatter blunders

Fresh manna feeds the hunger

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Recollections and memoirs of a pre-saved era

Though I waddled in the truth, I still dipped in the devil's terror

That is bad; you could say I had my share of it

Doing nothing drastic, depending how you stare at it

Skipping down the roads, I see the signs ahead

And then cadaver central opens once the flesh is dead

Because it's Noda not Yoda, don't sweat wend finding paths;

Just select the narrow, 'cause the broad has booby-traps for me to fall in,

And altogether miss my calling

Snares changed strategically, rounds change metaphysically

Fools don't know, but yet they really don't know

The failure to receive the wisdom stumps the inner-man's growth

It's difficult to comprehend if you can't fathom the rap

I ask you - what if the rapture sweeps past?

In the end is only when you feel the strength of the seven

Sorrow goes out for opposition

Armageddon is the place where his kingdom will cross the lost

And victory goes unto those who took the cross

So now I take the stance, subject myself to persecution

Since I been informed I'm not alarmed

My execution in the public

My relationship with Christ - none above it, I love it

I'm mesmerized beyond infatuation

To show the love of Christ tightens other relations

Waiting in his midst to catch a glimpse of his glory

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Yo, change that beat, so they can peek my direction

To bloodstreams, legal syringes of rhyme lectures

Infections as wounds cleanse, and turn up like prunes

Soon call on his name, some will still see doom

You assume 'cause you mention him as lord of your life

On award shows and albums, everything is alright

Who you? I never knew

Say you did work for me, but you can start now, depart now, worker of iniquity

Them shout-outs get you spat out quicker than cobras

Living beyond reproach until your sins found you out

You choke and gasp, in his name you ask forgiveness of your past,

And acquittal for your task

Ask me, you're living on chances with lucky odds

Get one up, still breathing, fronting with God

But the time has come, don't miss the cue

Be false or true 'cause them "Freak me, baby" -

"Thanks to my saviour" days are through

Straight up, I'm tired of fakes that be claiming in the family

Granted, our mother's one, but our father's no foe

So those who claim religion, hope your life is the proof

Ain't no playing with you, spoke in love, but in truth

And intentions of being blessed, and nothing good manifest

And in your life you're living on a chance of hopes and dreams

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams,

When you should be taking life the way that it seems?

Nothing good will manifest, you're still intent on being blessed

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?

Why you living on a chance for hopes and dreams?
