Replaced front brake hoses. Air in system

Ok so I just decided to go ahead and replace my front brake hoses, I've been noticing it seems like the brakes will just barely pull to one side. A mechanic friend of mine said to replace the soft hoses before anything else, he's seen them be diagnosed as bad calipers/cylinders.
After reinstalling the new lines and bleeding the system (multiple times) I'm still unable to get air out and the brake pedal is going straight to the floor.
Do I need to bleed or replace my master cylinder? Or do you think it could possibly something else?
I'm almost at the point where I just want to roll over and pay a mechanic to do it.

Google: gravity bleed brakes

Very simple for one person to do, just takes some time vs power bleeding(pushing down on pedal).
But we are not talking hours, lol, 20-30minutes

Interesting. I'd thought that may be a good solution, but I heard it can sometimes cause air to get into the RABS valve. Could that possibly be the problem as well?

Edit: after reading a bit more about gravity bleeding I think it would be a good way to see if there is actually air I the system

Rear ABS wouldn't be effected when doing front brake bleed.

But no it shouldn't effect ABS in any case.
