Hope
Trik Turner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You wanted to be more.
If there's a time you felt like drinking
I bet it is now
And, then,
a moment in time comes
Events and actions move to shape us
Hope
Never lose what you see
All that is meant to be
You will find is more with
Hope
The moment is past it's gone
But you know
It will never be the same
Tired, gaunt,
you struggle all over the joint
Decide the grass is always greener
But all I know
Some, times, reality breaks down
Conversations in your head
Are taking the place of
Hope
Never lose what you see
All that is meant to be
You will find is more with
Hope
The moment is past, it's gone
But you know
It will never be the same
Do you feel alone now?
Do you think tomorrow won't be good?
You think that sometime, somehow
with the acid eyes that burn right through.
Hope
Never lose what you see
All that is meant to be
You will find is more with
Hope
The moment is past it's gone
But you know
It will never be the same
The lyrics of Trik Turner's song "Hope" tackles the challenges that people face in their lives. The song suggests that events and actions shape us and help us make decisions that can change our lives. The first verse describes a person who is struggling and feels torn, broke, and overwhelmed. The singer empathizes with this person, suggesting that they might feel the need to drink to cope with their situation.
The chorus of the song discusses the importance of hope. It reminds listeners that they should hold on to hope, even when they feel that things are hopeless. The song suggests that hope helps us see that all that we're meant to be, and all that we will be, is more. Whatever experiences we go through, whether they are good or bad, make us who we are. The second verse talks about how people are often fed up with their lives and consider leaving everything behind. The song tells the listener that these feelings are normal and that sometimes, reality breaks down, and we have conversations in our heads where we consider different possibilities.
The bridge of the song then asks the listener questions which are very relevant to people who are feeling down and without hope. It asks if they feel alone or if they think that tomorrow won't be good. The lyrics suggest that things will be alright and that even if circumstances change, life will never be the same. Hope is a powerful force that the song encourages the listener to hold on to.
