Hope For Tomorrow

[Intro: YBN Cordae]

Yeah, ha

[Verse 1: YBN Cordae]

You ever given your all but it's still not enough

And then it builds up a lot of lust, but in God I trust

Cuz I'ma make it, the only option a nigga's got

I work for hours, and barely sleep, shit I deal a lot

Recording songs while in the area, triggers pop

They call him protege, next up, guess the kid is hot

Underappreciated, ahead of his time

Without even sketching a dime

Write the cleverest lines

I said we in mind

Anyways, I promise that I'll stop the bragging

Cuz that just leaves the envy and plus a lot of madness

That's why niggas is always broke, we just gots have it

Wearing this watch, that's platinum, but in the heart, that's plastic

And to be completely honest, it don't make no sense

Fucking cop in the chain before you pay your rent

Now the mindset of a dumb, average nigga

And the kids can't starve, he gotta grab the trigga

And it's funny cuz the same ones that's laughing witcha

Will stab you quicker with the pads of scriptures

If that makes them advance to richer

And the old heads pass the liquor

Drowning in sorrow, no hope for tomorrow but

[Chorus: YBN Cordae]

Uh oh, looks like the future's looking bright

I promised mama that we gon' make it through the night

Uh oh, tomorrow's always a better day

Tomorrow's always a better day

I'm saying that the future's looking bright

I promised mama that we gon' make it through the night

Uh oh, tomorrow's always a better day

Tomorrow's always a better day

[Verse 2: M1 DARTON]

Have you ever given your all, they see your conscious fall

Birth in my parents, through spirit, they see my mama crawl

You on your own, the feeling to know your truly grown

Struggling daily, gon' only have me to run my home

A transformation from hesitation to we gon' make it

Mind is enslaved, they took my patience and stripped me naked

Can't make excuses cuz niggas strive up for Harvard students

But crashing late in the statements, you know my people doing

Another day, another dollar, tryna pay the rent

Money never well spent

Shit ain't even making sense

I pray to God but knowing damn well he see my flaws

I only call on His name, when I'm just tryna ball

So I hope tomorrow, money just gon' end all my sorrow

So all my hopes and dreams I wanted, we gon' look to ball

I'm an investor in the past, never overnight

Promise mama it's gon' be alright because the future bright

[Chorus: YBN Cordae]

Uh oh, looks like the future's looking bright

I promised mama that we gon' make it through the night

Uh oh, tomorrow's always a better day

Tomorrow's always a better day

I'm saying that the future's looking bright

I promised mama that we gon' make it through the night

Uh oh, tomorrow's always a better day

Tomorrow's always a better day

[Refrain: YBN Cordae]

Now, throw your hands in the sky, if you fuck with it

Time to chill, just vibe and just get uplifted

Throw your hands in the sky, if you fuck with it

Time to chill, just vibe and just get uplifted

Throw your hands in the sky, if you fuck with it

Throw your hands in the sky, if you fuck with it

Time to chill, just vibe and just get uplifted

Now, throw your hands in the sky, if you fuck with it

[Chorus: YBN Cordae]

Uh oh, looks like the future's looking bright

I promised mama that we gon' make it through the night

Uh oh, tomorrow's always a better day

Tomorrow's always a better day

I'm saying that the future's looking bright

I promised mama that we gon' make it through the night

Uh oh, tomorrow's always a better day

Tomorrow's always a better day
