Hope
G.R.I.T Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Struck with discontent, but I could not abandon this.
Cause I am sure I've learned my lesson, from the anger, to the loneliness, the bliss.
A sudden change results in apathy. I couldn't let me fall apart.
Because with time comes understanding, with understanding comes a change of heart.
I swear you're running cause you've lost the hope. it's true.
Pack your bags and leave. lose all respect for where you're from.
I can't rely on the divine in the blueprints.
If you return it's cause you realized you're wrong.

The stigma is there's disadvantages of the smallest in the greatest machine.
If nothing else rely on sounds of the lighthouse,
Cause it brings you back to the sea.
I swear you're running cause you've lost the hope. it's true.
Just anchor and hope. have faith in your home.

You'll find redemption in your home. You're always looking for more.
The chance to open the doors is here. be patient. Know that I'm sure it's coming.
