Lyrics

My man saint was happy when he ate a meal
amongst the feinds on zombie land yo this place was real
growing up mamma struggling to pay the bills
went from pushing dimes to cutting bricks and made a Mil
he fed the set the Food was bread
and in his city like Neo had to choose between blue or red
I prayed to God the good news was read
and hope was found in the christ who for our sin was bruised and bled
but instead he groomed a chef
to cook in crack pots cutting crack rocks for his crew to vend
behind his back the crew would bend
dropping dimes avoiding jail time getting cool wit feds
on his back he was wearing a knife
around his right hand man who was wearing a mic
not alert a drunkard in strife
putting hope in everything other than Christ
I had a friend, every time I heard from him
There was something that he needed, or something that he wanted
Once he got out a bad spot, I wondered what he learned from it
It turns out it wasn’t much, dominated by lust
No self control, stuck in a rut, Looking for luck
hooking up with the wrong connects, a train wreck
Lacking trust, taking short cuts
so far from the path, driving a crash course with no gas
All he sees in the mirror is broken glass
So many burnt bridges, All thats left is smoke and ash
It’s hard to cope when your hanging by a thread
At the end of your rope - and blaming everyone instead of your self
dealt a bad hand - maybe it’s true
But you won’t ever make it better If you continue to refuse
correction - change your direction in life
Putting hope in everything other than Christ
Misplaced Hope gets us nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Misplaced Hope gets us nowhere, nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
We don’t got to place
Our hope in this world
It gets us nowhere
Nowhere
