Testo Hope - Shaggy feat. Prince Mydas

Testo della canzone Hope (Shaggy feat. Prince Mydas), tratta dall'album Hot Shot

Yeah
Uh, uh (uh-huh)
(Oh, yeah) yeah, yeah
Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, yeah
Uh, uh
I remember, wasn't so long ago
We had a one room shack and the livin' was low
And my mama by herself raised me and my bro
Wasn't easy, but we did it with the little that go (oh, yeah)
Worked hard, got us off to school every day
And kept her eyes on the stars when the skies were gray
Gave us pride to survive, really showed us the way
Now I really understood what she was tryin' to say
She said, "Son there'll be times when the tides are high
And the boat may be rocky, you can cry
Just never give up (never, never, never, never)
And you can never give up" (never, never, never, never), uh-uh
In this life you could lead if you only believe
And in order to achieve what you need
You can never give up (never, never, never, never)
And you can never give up (never, never, never, never) (hold on)
And this hope that keep me holding on (and on) (and on)
And this hope that makes me carry on (on and on), on and on (uh, uh)
Boom-boom, couldn't have made it alone
I got a wonderful life, two kids on my own
With a strong foundation that was carved in stone (oh, yeah)
And my mama for the love that made my house a home
Made me wonder some time if this was meant to be
All this for a humble little guy like me
And all I ever really wanted was a family
To teach my kids the same value that she gave to me
She said, "Son there'll be times when the tides are high
And the boat may be rocky, you can cry
Just never give up (never, never, never, never)
And you can never give up" (never, never, never, never), uh-uh
In this life you could lead if you only believe
And in order to achieve what you need
You can never give up (never, never, never, never)
And you can never give up (never, never, never, never)
And this hope (hope that keep me holding)
That keep me holding on (hope that keep me holding, hope that keep me holding) (and on)
(And on) (hope that makes me carry on)
And this hope (hope that keep me holding)
That makes me carry on (hope that keep me holding, hope that keep me holding)
(On and on), on and on (hope that makes me carry on) (uh, uh, uh)
We nah turn no stepper, things a go better
Never let yourself be overcome by pressure
Cool yah me bredda, have faith insteada
Sit down an watch 'em all a fight one another
Blaze like fire, we nah go retire (keep the hope alive)
God nah sleep and a him a inspire (and yes, to survive)
We fa reach higher (yeah, yeah), a that him require (yeah, yeah, yeah)
We haffa mek a mark before a time expire
And this hope (hope that keep me holding) (hope alive)
That keep me holding on (hope that keep me holding, hope that keep me holding) (and on)
(And on) (hope that makes me carry on)
And this hope (hope that keep me holding)
That makes me carry on (hope that keep me holding, hope that keep me holding)
(On and on) (hope that makes me carry on) (uh, uh)
And this hope (hope that keep me holding) (hope alive)
That keep me holding on (hope that keep me holding, hope that keep me holding) (and on)
(And on) (hope that makes me carry on)
And this hope (hope that keep me holding)
That makes me carry on (hope that keep me holding, hope that keep me holding)
(On and on) (hope that makes me carry on) (uh, uh, uh)
(This hope) you know I told ya
Hope keeps it alive, yeah, uh
Hope keeps it alive, yeah, uh
Only the strong survive, yeah (this hope)
Hope keeps it alive, yeah, yeah (that keep me holding on)
Hope keeps it alive, yeah
Only the strong survive, yeah (yeah)
Keep it carry on, keep it carry on, yeah
(Oh, this hope) (she said, "Son there'll be times when the tides are high") uh-uh
(That makes me carry on) (and the boat may be rocky, you can cry, just never give up)
I'll keep it, carry on, yeah (you can never give up)
I gotta carry on, gotta carry on and be strong
(In this life you could lead if you only believe) (holding on, holding on, holding on)
(And in order to achieve what you need, you can never give up) (oh, just holding on)
You can never give up (just holding on)
