Hope and vision

Hopeful not hopeless

I've got hope, I've got vision
I'm a man, on a mission
Hope you play your position
'cause I'm taking my position
I'm not blaming the system
'cause a man made the system
Trust in your intuition
You could know if you listen

We've got hope, we've got vision
Shout my guys, on a mission
Hope you play your position
'cause I'm taking my position
I'm not blaming the system
'cause a man made the system
Trust in your intuition
You could know if you listen

Making up for lost time
Scratch that I've got time
O.T. I'm over time
I'll work it out over time
Go for yours
I'll go for mine
I got faith that's soo divine
Tell me if that's out of line
Just wrote another line
Here's where we draw the line
For the snakes and porcupines
Bet you see them "all the time"
But what you seek is what you find
And so I left that all behind
Why they want to cross the line?
A true friend is hard to find

I've got hope, I've got vision
I'm a man, on a mission
Hope you play your position
'cause I'm taking my position
I'm not blaming the system
'cause a man made the system
Trust in your intuition
You could know if you listen

We've got hope, we've got vision
Shout my guys, on a mission
Hope you play your position
'cause I'm taking my position
I'm not blaming the system
'cause a man made the system
Trust in your intuition
You could know if you listen

Miss me with the victimhood
That ain't ever good
See me doing what I know we could
Never really knew brotherhood
But my brother's good
That's my little bro
See him now he ain't "little" though
Was a little low
Now I'm getting up (stepping up)
Standing up like it's comedy (comedy)
Smiling everywhere I go (where I go)
'cause I know where I'm coming from
So I don't care what you're putting on
When I switch that's a different song
But I can't let nanny down
Kick me down
Can't keep me down
I'm soo blessed
That I'm still around
(I'm soo blessed I'm still around)
