[00:00.480] Hope I'm on my way I'm coming
[00:08.838] Don't, don't lose faith in me
[00:15.521] I know you've been waiting
[00:19.864] I know you've been praying for my soul
[00:24.796] Hope, hope
[00:33.386] 30 years you've been draggin' your feet telling me I'm the reason we're stagnant
[00:40.666] 30 years you've been claiming you're honest and promising progress, well where's it at?
[00:47.883] I don't want you to feel like a failure
[00:51.687] I know this hurts
[00:54.939] But I gave you your chance to deliver
[00:58.889] Now it's my turn
[01:01.908] Don't get me wrong
[01:06.135] (Nate you've had a great run)
[01:09.109] But it's time to
[01:13.068] (Give the people something different)
[01:16.755] So without further ado I'd
[01:20.590] Like to introduce my
[01:23.569] My album, my album, my album, my album, my album, my album
[01:29.072] HOPE
[01:31.218] What's my definition of success?
[01:35.247] Listening to what your heart says
[01:38.520] Standing up for what you know is
[01:40.322] Right while everybody else is
[01:42.109] Tucking their tail between their legs
[01:43.802] (Okay)
[01:45.634] What's my definition of success?
[01:49.103] Creating something no one else can
[01:52.944] Being brave enough to dream big
[01:54.695] Grinding when you're told to just quit
[01:56.376] Giving more when you got nothin' left
[01:58.232] It's a person that'll take a chance on
[01:59.872] Something they were told could never happen
[02:01.602] It's a person that can see the bright side
[02:03.442] Through the dark times when there ain't one
[02:05.307] It's when someone who ain't never had nothing
[02:07.029] Ain't afraid to walk away from
[02:08.755] More profit 'cause they'd rather do something that they really love and take the pay cut
[02:12.466] It's person that would never waver
[02:14.117] Or change who
[02:15.044] They are just to try and gain some
[02:16.821] Credibility so they can feel accepted by a stranger
[02:19.729] It's a person that can take the failures in their life and turn 'em into motivation
[02:23.025] It's believing in yourself when no one else does it's amazing
[02:26.632] What a little bit of faith can do
[02:28.359] If you don't even believe in you
[02:30.378] Why would you think or expect anybody else that's around you to
[02:33.823] I done did things that I regret
[02:35.561] I done said things I can't take back
[02:37.386] Was a lost soul at a crossroad who had no hope but I changed that
[02:40.988] I spent years of my life holding on to things
[02:42.914] I never should kept full of hatred
[02:44.876] Years of my life carrying a lot of baggage
[02:46.953] That I should've walked away from
[02:48.558] Years of my life wishin' I was someone different
[02:50.534] Lookin' for some validation
[02:52.011] Years of my life trying to fill a void pretending I was they get it
[02:55.702] Growing pain's a necessary evil
[02:57.056] Difficult to go through yes but beneficial
[02:58.913] Some would say having a mental breakdown is a
[03:00.725] Negative thing which on one hand I agree but
[03:02.700] On the other hand it was the push I needed
[03:04.279] To get help and start the healing process see
[03:05.999] If l'da never hit rocket bottom would I be the person that I am today I don't believe
[03:09.558] So I'm a prime example of happens when you
[03:11.402] Choose to not accept defeat and face your demons
[03:12.954] Took me 30 years to realize that if you wanna get the opportunity
[03:16.457] To be the greatest version of yourself sometimes
[03:18.270] You gotta be someone you're not to hear the voice of reason
[03:20.270] Having kids will make you really take a step back and look in the mirror at least for me that's what it did
[03:24.095] I wake up every day and pick my son up
[03:25.903] Hold him in my arms and let him know he's loved (loved)
[03:27.707] Standing by the window questioning if dad is ever going to show up (up)
[03:31.201] Isn't something he's gon' have to worry bout
[03:32.724] Don't get it twisted that wasn't a shot
[03:34.506] Mamma I forgive you I just don't want him to
[03:36.154] Grow up thinking that he'll never be enough
[03:38.170] 30 years of running
[03:38.905] 30 years of searching
[03:39.761] 30 years of hurting
[03:40.640] 30 years of pain
[03:41.443] 30 years of fearful
[03:42.376] 30 years of anger
[03:43.227] 30 years of empty
[03:44.161] 30 years of shame
[03:44.976] 30 years of broken
[03:45.917] 30 years of anguish
[03:46.813] 30 years of hopeless
[03:47.750] 30 years of (hey)
[03:48.624] 30 years of never
[03:49.542] 30 years of maybe
[03:50.424] 30 years of later
[03:51.265] 30 years of fake
[03:52.200] 30 years of hollow
[03:53.097] 30 years of sorrow
[03:53.928] 30 years of darkness
[03:54.833] 30 years of (Nate)
[03:55.790] 30 vears of baggage
[03:56.693] 30 years of sadness
[03:57.565] 30 years of stagnant
[03:58.456] 30 years of chains
[03:59.303] 30 years of anxious

[04:02.892] 30 years of bitter
[04:03.896] 30 years of lonely
[04:04.748] 30 years of pushing everyone away
[04:06.465] You'll never evolve
[04:07.461] (I know I can change)
[04:08.445] We are not enough
[04:09.266] (We are not the same)
[04:10.155] You don't have the heart
[04:11.115] (You don't have the strength)
[04:12.003] You don't have the will
[04:12.821] You don't have the faith)
[04:13.675] You'll never be loved
[04:14.577] You'll never be safe
[04:15.506] Might as well give up
[04:16.321] (Not running away)
[04:17.295] You don't have the guts
[04:18.219] (You're the one afraid)
[04:19.094] I'm the one in charge
[04:20.024] I'm taking the (NO)
[04:21.075] I'm taking the reigns...
