Hope
Lucidious Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been a while now, feel like I been stuck inside of this moment
The weight of the world on my shoulders is pulling me down I been trying to hold it

Everyone's dealing with issues most of us don't got the courage to show it
A lot on my mind gotta expose it
This is the path that I've chosen

I gotta lotta bad days, so I
Write, when I'm in a bad state of mind
Life I been living at a fast pace
I'm alright, but I really feel I lost faith

This is the place that I turn when the world that I live in is darkest
I got a message for all of the people who think that their life's become garbage

Late at night when you can't decide if you wanna live or you wanna die
Hard to sleep and you can barely breathe
Feel the pain inside as it amplifies

Bad things happen that we can't explain
You can let go of the past but the scars remain
You gotta lot of anger that you can't contain
Now you need to find a way to let it go and change

Star on fire, I'm trying
To burn without collapsing
Hanging in the balance
Caught in the middle of silence

Light me up, I'm searching
Looking for one reason
Trying to find the beacon
To guide me home

Hope
Now that's a word that I'm pretty new to
Stuck in depression
Now that's something that I'm pretty used to

A lonely road, who knew that people would like me because of my YouTube
But I'm grateful, that's what I feel every time that I see I got new views

But I'm so confused
What's the point of a view if I'm a slave to it
This day in age is pretty dangerous
Why is Facebook determining relationships

Kids overdose in the basement with no clue what do when their parents split
Started to slip they were losing their grip couldn't bare to repair their embarrassment

When you feel like you been living in a dark maze
Scream why when you looking up and stargaze

You lose sight in the storm when it's all gray
You can't fight
You really wanna part ways

But think twice
For your life's a gift it's alright
When you feel you can't find it just reach out a hand and somebody will show you the light

Star on fire, I'm trying
To burn without collapsing
Hanging in the balance
Caught in the middle of silence

Light me up, I'm searching
Looking for one reason
Trying to find the beacon
To guide me home

Yeah
It's been too long I been falling
Lord knows that it's all been exhausting
I feel that my soul is evolving
I'm done with the pain I been causing

I've waited for strength to resolve this
I hear that my angels are calling
In the rain of the storm, I'ma calm it
I'll crawl if I have to I'm all in

I've been waiting for so long
Can't do this on my own
I need to know there's more than this feeling

Star on fire I'm trying
Oh I'm burning, but I'm not collapsing
Light me up, I'm searching




For a reason, I found the beacon
To guide me home
