Can’t Ban The Hopeman

Dee-1 * Track #11 On Slingshot David (The Mixtape)

Can’t Ban The Hopeman Lyrics

Intro:

Dawg, the only reason I'm rapping over this beat right now is cause I looked at my email and they sent me nine beats, and this one was number seven and it was called God
Dawg, everything that is happening
Right now is bigger than what you reading online
It's more than what it seems like on the surface I promise you this ain't about my mixtape not dropping its bigger than that dawg

Verse 1:

Look!
I don't come from this industry
I'm totally different
I ain't come into this game to have my content censored
I ain't come into this game to beef wit my label, I love everybody up there sittin' at that table
I ain't come into this game to beef wit Lil' Weezy
Only came to speak the truth sometimes the truth ain't easy
If the folk who know the truth remain silent then we just as guilty as the ones promoting violence
Hold up
Right as I'm on the phone
Finding out my mixtape ban
I get anotha incoming call from my lil man--- my former student I taught
Yeah I just gave him 3 G's
Cause he was homeless; sleeping under bridges and trees
Sold dope the past few years
Then his luck dried up
Gave him a purpose driven life book, and prayed for him and such
Now he enrolling in college about to start a new life
Outside the music industry
Is bigger battles I fight

Bridge

Nobody told me that this ride would be smooth
But I ain't tryna get nobody sued
If they was making legal threats
We ain't gotta release it
If they making death threats
Boy my security Jesus!
This mixtape was gon change the world
And give hope to the hopeless
Cause in our culture
Goliath is defeating David
That's backwards I'm here to change it Cover your ears I'm armed and dangerous Speaking that truth music
Left, right, left, right
That truth music
Solider's in the camouflage
It's that army boot music
(Yeah) that boot music
Louisianimal ahh
Trust I'm good in my city
This the place I reside
New Orleans more than killings
We been misrepresented the propaganda ain't accurate
I have grown to resent it
(I'm quite opposed to it)
I'm here to change the narrative and try to be an example
But can I LIVE!

Huh so to the fans I'm sorry
The mixtape ain't dropping
Farewell to dearly departed
Come hang wit me when you see me
I'll play it fo' you Yeah we can listen over coffee and beignets
But truth, look I can tell you about the
Industry and how things go and
Which bloggers are crooked
Huh trust me, I know!
I can't wait till I can have a sit-down​ wit
Lil' Wayne and have a heart to heart talk about changing the game

Outro:

This is bigger than music
Bigger than rap
Reporting live from the bottom of the map.. the Bible!
I don't know how often you read it
But when you do
Ephesians 6:12
Please.. (Please)

It explains this perfectly
That's why I'm here to make the devil
Mad purposely (purposely) (X1)
