[Intro: Iamwordsmith]
(Neighborhood hope dealers)
(Helpin' others prosper eternally)
(From 'hood to 'hood, block to block)
Word
Reachin' the unreachable
Teachin' the unteachable
We them hope dealers
Wordsmith
[Verse 1: Iamwordsmith]
Sometimes I wake up in a deep sweat, stress, sleep less, daily I'm traumatized
Open eyes, feelin' misery off them prophesied
Sincere youth carry, burden, no proof daily
Life is a noose, wonder if I'll burn up in Hadеs
Life is pattern I shatterеd, family ties severely
And the crime sincerely, thug is your most [?]
I was deffin' and never confessin' guilty to the jury
Inside I'll be filled on livin', building negative fury (Word)
Street nights, we packin' that heat, life's a struggle
Daily we hustle knockin' the bundle, livin' humble
Benefitin', raisin' my seeds, I be babysittin'
Chronic, driven, plottin' no, gettin' riches that I envision
Lock and load, reach to this Glock that I hold, bustin'
Raw steel, willin' to bust loose for nothin'
Every day is vital, got me livin' more homicidal
Feelin' entitled to all the riches stated in Bible
Mu-muddy hose stackin', bloody doe or ritual
Poverty visual, makin' criminals more habitual
Lord, I be tryin', I swore them 'fore more these cryin'
Attendin' these wakes, see in the face, people dyin'
Wonder why we stressed out and livin' this way
'Cause we stuck up in the ghetto, broken, duckin' from strays
But God save me, remember me, I keep it solid G
Now we helpin' others prosper eternally
[Pre-Chorus: Iamwordsmith]
I be on the block 'til they murder me
Helpin' others prosper eternally (Hope dealer)
When it comes to this gospel, I got no chill
For real, I could teach you how to hope deal
[Chorus: Iamwordsmith, Bizzle]
Neighborhood hope dealer, hope dealer (Uh huh)
We the neighborhood hope dealers, hope dealers (Okay)
Neighborhood hope dealer, hope dealer (Uh, uh huh)
We the neighborhood hope dealers, hope dealers (Bizzle, let's go)
[Verse 2: Bizzle]
You already know what it is (Yeah), it's God over money
'Til I'm gone wit' the wind and the smoke disappears
The flow's more potent in tyin' your dome off
Wit' a roped-in check dopin' pope for your ears
From my pocket full of blue dolphins
Now the church on the block wit' a new offerin'
Not 'bout to rock 'fore I get too far in it (Uh)
Now I march wit' the saints like a dude baller for New Orleans
Nah, we ain't lukewarm in it, we too fortunate
Separated from the Father for too long, it just
Caught up in the coops and the loo
But the truth is if you ain't wit' the Father, you just in the cool orphanage (Word)
Hope been waitin' on you
But Satan make love sound like it's hatin' on you (Uh)
If you lost, I run across the nation for you (For real)
And I could take you to the Savior, but the decision, I can't make it for you
Bizzle
[Pre-Chorus: Iamwordsmith]
I be on the block 'til they murder me
Helpin' others prosper eternally (Hope dealer)
When it comes to this gospel, I got no chill
For real, I could teach you how to hope deal
[Chorus: Iamwordsmith, Sevin]
Neighborhood hope dealer, hope dealer (Uh huh)
We the neighborhood hope dealers, hope dealers (Okay)
Neighborhood hope dealer, hope dealer (Forever mobbin', baby, uh huh)
We the neighborhood hope dealers, hope dealers (Yeah, let's go)
[Verse 3: Sevin]
Slow creep, rollin' four deep up in the Malibu
I slide through where they slide through and serve beef like a drive-thru
My crew brings Christ to the alley
I'm a Cali fool, feed 'em the rock, call it an alley-oop
Yeah, bro, then you shankin' while I bring the word
Gunshots, holdin' prayer circles where they stain the curb
We make disciples where they're toting Glocks
'Cause it's funkier than dope fiend socks
The blocks hotter than some old sting pops
They rock product 'til the whole thing drops
Choppin' and hit the block for more green knots, huh
God's the Father, and before He's mopped
He'll make your whole team flop like some codeine shots, yeah
I keep tellin' 'em we out here, baby
Not once a year either, we are out here daily, huh
I been rid of gang bang, you ain't do it yet?
Christ did the same thing, who do you reflect?
We bring the truth to the set where you could lose your neck
Dope dealer or hope dealer, who do you respect?
When it comes to the gospel, I got no chill
For real, I could teach you how to hope deal
He's the bread of life, boy, it's so real
I don't just wanna slice 'em wit' the whole meal
When it comes to this mobbin', I got no chill
For real, let me teach you how to hope deal
[Pre-Chorus: Iamwordsmith]
I be on the block 'til they murder me
Helpin' others prosper eternally (Hope dealer)
When it comes to this gospel, I got no chill
For real, I could teach you how to hope deal
[Chorus: Iamwordsmith]
Neighborhood hope dealer, hope dealer (Uh huh)
We the neighborhood hope dealers, hope dealers (Okay)
Neighborhood hope dealer, hope dealer (Uh huh)
We the neighborhood hope dealers, hope dealers (Let's go)
[Outro: Iamwordsmith]
Hope dealer (Hope dealer, hope dealer, hope dealer)
