Hopeful

Oh-oh-oh Yeah Please help me God, I feel so alone I'm just a kid, how can I take it on my own I've cried so many tears, yeah, writing this song Trying to fit in, where do I belong? I wake up every day, don't want to leave my home My momma's askin' me why I'm always alone Too scared to say, too scared to holler I'm walking to school, with sweat around my collar I'm just a kid, I don't want no stress My nerves are bad, my life's a mess The names you call me, they hurt real bad I want to tell my Mom But she's havin' trouble with my Dad I feel so trapped there's nowhere to turn Come to school Don't wanna fight I wanna learn So please Mr. Bully Tell me what I've done You know I have no Dad I'm livin' with my Mom 'Cause 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 Just be hopeful Why do you trip but the color on my skin? Or whether I'm fat or whether I'm thin? You call me a loser, you call me a fool I ain't got a choice, I gotta go to school I wish I had an angel to stand by my side I'm shaking with fear, I'm so scared inside Does it really matter if I ain't got the looks? Why do you always hurt me and destroy my hooks? 'Cause 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 Just be hopeful I give you all my money every single day I didn't ask to be born but now I have to pay I ain't got no food, you take all I have When I give it to you, you searchin' my bags I wrote this song for you to see We could've been friends, yeah, you and me Mr. Bully take a moment please Every single day you bring me to my knees 'Cause 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 (yeah), but, that's okay 'Cause 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 Just be hopeful What I wear is all I have We lost our home, I'm livin' from a bag Yo, Mr. Bully, help me please I'm flesh and blood, accept me please
