[00:24.04] [00:25.26]Hope hope [00:31.45] [00:33.61]Thirty years you been draggin' your feet [00:36.33]Tellin' me I'm the reason we're stagnant [00:39.50] [00:40.81]Thirty years you've been claimin' you're honest and promisin' progress [00:45.50]But where's it at [00:47.11] [00:48.17]I don't want you to feel like a failure [00:51.07] [00:52.20]I know this hurts [00:54.13] [00:55.13]But I gave you your chance to deliver [00:58.34] [00:59.27]Now it's my turn [01:01.36] [01:02.17]Don't get me wrong Nate you've had a great run [01:08.44] [01:09.23]But it's time to give the people somethin' different [01:15.70] [01:16.78]So without further ado I'd like to introduce my [01:23.03] [01:23.75]My album my album my album my album [01:26.75]My album my album my album [01:28.97] [01:29.48]HOPE [01:29.86] [01:31.28]What's my definition of success [01:33.10] [01:35.23]Listening to what your heart says [01:36.74] [01:38.72]Standing up for what you know is [01:40.48]Right while everybody else is [01:42.40]Tucking their tail between their legs [01:44.06]Okay [01:44.57] [01:45.67]What's my definition of success [01:47.70]Success [01:48.40] [01:49.48]Creating something no one else can [01:51.13] [01:53.08]Bein' brave enough to dream big [01:54.46] [01:54.98]Grindin' when you're told to just quit [01:56.72]Givin' more when you got nothin' left [01:58.21]It's a person that'll take a chance on [02:00.01]Somethin' they were told could never happen [02:01.68]It's a person that can see the bright side [02:03.61]Through the dark times when there ain't one [02:05.42]It's when someone who ain't never had nothin' [02:07.21]Ain't afraid to walk away from more profit [02:09.54]'Cause they'd rather do somethin' that they really love [02:11.56]And take the pay cut [02:12.76]It's a person that would never waiver [02:14.24]Or change who they are [02:15.91]Just to try to and gain some credibility [02:17.65]So they could feel accepted by a stranger [02:19.63]It's a person that can take the failures in their life [02:21.95]And turn them into motivation [02:23.20]It's believing in yourself when no one else does [02:26.00]It's amazing [02:26.79]What a little bit of faith can do [02:28.59]If you don't even believe in you [02:30.46]Why would you think or expect anybody else that's around you to [02:34.02]I done did things that I regret [02:35.87]I done said things I can't take back [02:37.63]Was a lost soul at a cross road who had no hope [02:40.23]But I changed that [02:41.11]I spent years of my life holdin' on to things I never should've kept [02:44.09]Full of hatred [02:45.01]Years of my life carryin' a lot of baggage [02:47.19]That I should've walked away from [02:48.62]Years of my life wishin' I was someone different [02:50.76]Lookin' for some validation [02:52.17]Years of my life tryna fill the void pretending I was in [02:54.92]They get it [02:55.82]Growing pain's a necessary evil [02:57.27]Difficult to go through yes but beneficial [02:58.98]Some would say having a mental breakdown is a negative thing [03:01.55]Which on one hand I agree with [03:02.76]On the other hand it was the push I needed [03:04.35]To get help and start the healing process see [03:06.12]If I'd have never hit rock bottom [03:07.47]Would I be the person that I am today [03:09.16]I don't believe so [03:09.90]I'm a prime example of what happens when you [03:11.64]Choose to not accept defeat and face your demons [03:13.39]Took me thirty years to realize that if you [03:15.20]Wanna get the opportunity to be the greatest version of yourself [03:18.09]Sometimes you got to be someone you're not [03:19.67]To hear the voice of reason [03:20.67]Having kids will make you really take a step back [03:22.48]And look in the mirror [03:23.30]At least for me that's what it did I [03:24.63]Wake up every day and pick my son up [03:26.07]Hold him in my arms and let him know he's loved [03:27.77]Loved [03:28.05]Standing by the window questioning if dad is ever going to show up [03:31.03]Up [03:31.26]Isn't something he's goin' to have to worry 'bout [03:33.11]Don't get it twisted that wasn't a shot [03:34.60]Mama I forgive you [03:35.51]I just don't want him to grow up thinkin' that he'll never be enough [03:38.22]Thirty years of running thirty years of searching [03:40.02]Thirty years of hurting thirty years of pain [03:41.72]Thirty years of fearful thirty years of anger [03:43.52]Thirty years of empty thirty years of shame [03:45.30]Thirty years of broken thirty years of anguish [03:47.08]Thirty years of hopeless thirty years of

[04:06.80]You'll never evolve [04:07.66]I know I can change [04:08.58]We are not enough [04:09.46]We are not the same [04:10.41]You don't have the heart [04:11.30]You don't have the strength [04:12.18]You don't have the will [04:13.06]You don't have the faith [04:13.94]You'll never be loved you'll never be safe [04:15.83]Might as well give up [04:16.67]Not running away [04:17.47]You don't have the guts [04:18.51]You're the one afraid [04:19.28]I'm the one in charge [04:20.28]I'm taking the [04:20.83]No [04:21.17]I'm taking the [04:21.83] [04:22.79]Reins
