Amil by The Carter Sue Lyrics
[Chorus]
And all this hope it will change
My life will never be the same
So close to grabbin the rope
I thank the lord I got some hope
And all this hope it will change
My life will never be the same
So close to grabbin the rope
I thank the lord I got some hope
[Verse 1]
I used to be so down in the dumps
And lumps of my soul
Were lumps like the coal
My soul black at heart
Was doomed from the start
My grandmama's mama struggled
So partly I have to blame
My name for the pain
But I can sustain
And I can maintain
And I can refrain from being the same
So life bout to start
I'm hoping the Lord will give me a part
In this play of life
The world is a stage
I'm ready to change
Turn all the pages
Start a new chapter
Down by the capital
See what this rap will do
I knew I had to do
Something to free
All of my mind
And spend all the time
I hope I can spit it
Hope people love it
Hope I can show myself to the public
[Chorus]
And all this hope it will change
My life will never be the same
So close to grabbin the rope
I thank the lord I got some hope
[Verse 2]
Down to the ATX, to make a wreck
Never ever gonna make my music to chase a check
Never ever gonna wear two chains around my neck
Cause I do it for the man in the sky and I don't flex
So I'mma finish college
And hopefully I gain a little bit knowledge
Stay focused and im really hopin I don't
Snoop around end up sippin gin and tonic
Cause I be working on this music all day, all day
So hopefully you appreciate what I say
I take pride in it, I put my soul in
I believe in myself and imma roll wit it
I put my faith in the most high so I'm
Never stopping till I get all my
Hopes and dreams and it seems like I might
Sky's the limit and I know I'll fly
I hope I make most
Of all of these opportunities
I hope I never coast
Cause damn I know I'm close
[Chorus]
And all this hope it will change
My life will never be the same
So close to grabbin the rope
I thank the Lord I got some hope
And all this hope it will change
My life will never be the same
So close to grabbin the rope
I thank the lord I got some hope
And all this hope it will change
My life will never be the same
So close to grabbin the rope
I thank the lord I got some hope
[Verse 1]
I used to be so down in the dumps
And lumps of my soul
Were lumps like the coal
My soul black at heart
Was doomed from the start
My grandmama's mama struggled
So partly I have to blame
My name for the pain
But I can sustain
And I can maintain
And I can refrain from being the same
So life bout to start
I'm hoping the Lord will give me a part
In this play of life
The world is a stage
I'm ready to change
Turn all the pages
Start a new chapter
Down by the capital
See what this rap will do
I knew I had to do
