Singer: bars and melody
oh-oh-oh
yeah
please help me god
i feel so alone
i'm just a kid
i can't take it on my own
i've cried so many tears
yeah
writing this song
trying to fit in
where do i belong?
i wake up every day
don't wanna leave my home
my mamma's askin' me why i'm always alone
too scared to say
too scared to holler
i'm walking to school with sweat around my collar
i'm just a kid
i don't want no stress
my nerves are bad
my life's a mess
the names you call me
they hurt real bad
i want to tell my mom but
she's havin' trouble with my dad
i feel so trapped there's nowhere to turn
come to school
don't wanna fight i wanna learn
so please mister bully
tell me what i've done
you know i have no dad
i'm livin' with my mom
'cause i'm hopeful
yes i am
hopeful for today
take this music and use it
let it take you away
and be hopeful
hopeful
and he'll make a way
i know it ain't easy but that's okay
just be hopeful
why do you trip at the color of my skin?
and whether i'm fat or whether i'm thin
you call me a loser
you call me a fool
i ain't got a choice i gotta go to school
i wish i had an angel to stand by my side
i'm shaking with fear
i'm so scared inside
doesn't really matter if i ain't got the looks
why do you always hurt me and destroy my books?
'cause i'm hopeful
yes i am
hopeful for today
take this music and use it
let it take you away
and be hopeful
hopeful
and he'll make a way
i know it ain't easy but that's okay
just be hopeful
i give you all my money every single day
i didn't ask to be born but now i have to pay
i ain't got no food
you take all i have
when i give it to you
you search through my bags
i wrote this song for you to see
we could've been friends
yeah you and me
mister bully
take a moment please
every single day you bring me to my knees
'cause i'm hopeful
yes i am
hopeful for today
take this music and use it
let it take you away
and be hopeful
hopeful
and he'll make a way
i know it ain't easy but that's okay
'cause i'm hopeful
yes i am
hopeful for today
take this music and use it
let it take you away
and be hopeful
hopeful
and he'll make a way
i know it ain't easy but that's okay
just be hopeful
what i wear is all i have
we lost our home
i'm living from a bag
yo mister bully
help me please
i'm flesh and blood
accept me please.
