Higher Hopes (Mr. West) Lyrics

Wonder why sometimes I idolize

Adding to my list of fears I got it itemized

Maybe I should dumb it down or maybe I should follow sound

Just to put on for my town but then that’s compromise

My peers is overdosing daily I can’t keep it hush

But they just tryna numb the pain cuz they done seen too much

Traumatized watch a bunch of niggas die right on my iPhone

The next post is shaking ass as I drive home

Desensitized like it ain’t real it’s synthesize

I ain’t surprised the daily shit that hit my eyes

Numbness before we show we care we rather die

It’s hard to have a limit when you never satisfied

And I don’t think I’m satisfied

But what if I give you I until I’m magnified

Really tryna pacify patience as I Strategize

I’m tryna touch some souls but wait a minute let me sanitize

Thanks to CDC

Social distance pandemic yeah it’s only me

Your soul is worth a trillion dollars but you sold it cheap

For a bunch of follows repost and a couple tweets

I pray you value more

Ain’t hard to take the easy route I pray you challenge more

I know some people got it all and depressed

Thinking money solve it all no my nigga that’s a stretch

Damn

Got me living in this cancel culture

Where everybody think the same it’s like we cancelled culture

Tell me how popping pussy equal liberation

Tell how shooting niggas is a celebration

I saw them rappers screaming Black Lives Matter

Hit the studio and make a song about killing niggas after

Supposed to be moving forward that’s a hundred steps backwards

Hard to look in the mirror when that mother fucker shattered

Damn that’s just the system tho

Homie say it’s simulated shit well prolly so

Sometimes this shit is disappointing I had higher hopes
