[Intro: Dope]
Dope!
I'm here to give y'all hope
And I know sometimes you can't cope
But please never give up
Never say nope
Uh, Yeah
(APV)
[Hook: Dope]
I'm a, man in the making becoming a made man
Light of the world even though I'm a dark man
Hope of the world but sometimes a sad man
Preacher-man but sometimes a bad man
Sane man, thinking, becoming a mad man
People tell me that I made it I say I'm glad man
Life's a game play pick up your pad man
They tell me that the earth is mine like I'm Sandman
Man in the making becoming a made man
Light of the world even though I'm a dark man
Hope of the world but sometimes a sad man
Preacher-man but sometimes a bad man
Sane man, thinking, becoming a mad man
People tell me that I made it I say I'm glad man
Life's a game play pick up your pad man
They tell me that the earth is mine like I'm Sandman
[Verse 1: Dope]
Hope on and hop on like you got a coupon
Focus right on your path and you gotta look on
If you're getting ready for the journey, lovely, cook on
Don't drop your anchor at the middle of the sea move on
Uh, yeah, middle of the sea
They tell me that what's gon' be is gon' be
And now I'm reminiscing all the days
When I was young, dumb broke and free
Un yea broke and free
A couple of' times two worries or three
But now if worries were the currency
I would go on a spending spree
'Cause I got a lot though
I'm thinking that I got too much though
Life can be so hard without even flexing a muscle
Uh yeah muscle
I think it hurts my whole torso
And yes we make the plans but only God can tell the end of the hustle
Uh yeah hustle
'Times we find out it's not so
Bustling and bubbling, rocking and rolling on the street just for false hope
Oh no false hope
Believe me that shit can kill a Cole
Sometimes in vain we climb and mount our victory flags on the victory pole
[Interlude: PreCept]
I'm on the Shoulderplace
Holding to amazing grace
Oh I'mma run the race
Believe me when I say it
You know
Yeah
[Hook: Dope]
I'm a, man in the making becoming a made man
Light of the world even though I'm a dark man
Hope of the world but sometimes a sad man
Preacher-man but sometimes a bad man
Sane man, thinking, becoming a mad man
People tell me that I made it I say I'm glad man
Life's a game play pick up your pad man
They tell me that the earth is mine like I'm Sandman
Man in the making becoming a made man
Light of the world even though I'm a dark man
Hope of the world but sometimes a sad man
Preacher-man but sometimes a bad man
Sane man, thinking, becoming a mad man
People tell me that I made it I say I'm glad man
Life's a game play pick up your pad man
They tell me that the earth is mine like I'm Sandman
[Verse 2: PreCept]
You know you know you know it
I'm all on that Shoulderplace
High on that Shoulderplace
I go there when I feel the pain
Yeah
The stress has got to me
I'm up all night got me thinking till everybody knows
Then He said boy no
Never worry about it, no
Never worry 'cause I got this
And these days I've been trying
Trying my best but they try to shut the doors on me
I just make more records and I'm grateful
That am blessed
Oh yes I know
Mama told me I could make it if I try
And I know that I can make so I try
It's all like Mama said it
It don't matter what you say you dont got
It don't matter
Just shine
[Hook: Dope]
I'm a, man in the making becoming a made man
Light of the world even though I'm a dark man
Hope of the world but sometimes a sad man
Preacher-man but sometimes a bad man
Sane man, thinking, becoming a mad man
People tell me that I made it I say I'm glad man
Life's a game play pick up your pad man
They tell me that the earth is mine like I'm Sandman
Man in the making becoming a made man
Light of the world even though I'm a dark man
Hope of the world but sometimes a sad man
Preacher-man but sometimes a bad man
Sane man, thinking, becoming a mad man
People tell me that I made it I say I'm glad man
Life's a game play pick up your pad man
They tell me that the earth is mine like I'm Sandman
[Outro: PreCept]
