Keep Getting Better
[Intro]
Yeah, man, no matter what
No matter what you're going through
Trust me, you can overcome that, you feel me?
You can keep getting better
Just listen to your boy, yo, uh
[Verse 1]
I've been doing this for thirteen years
Your boy been doing this for thirteen years (and I just keep getting better)
And my purpose on this Earth is clear
To bring cheer through every person's ears (I just keep getting better)
I came up smoking cigarettes
To holding bigger breaths when I go (I just keep getting better)
Every scene is unique, when I speak - you sink deep
Into the depths of my flow (I just keep getting better)
I don't care about fame, or the fortune I gain
I stay the same, never change (I just keep getting better)
It's a shame that they claim that their names should be praised
When they ain't using their brains (I just keep getting better)
My raps entertain and amaze
As they gaze into my lyrical flames (I just keep getting better)
Hit the studio day after day
And make complexity in tracks 'til they say (you just keep getting better)
[Hook]
While they're living, not caring about their ways
Selling drugs, getting locked up for some change (I just keep getting better)
While they're drinking and smoking their lives away
Doing nothing, pointing fingers for the blame (I just keep getting better)
While they're settling for less
Hooking up with anybody just to ease their lonely stress (I just keep getting better)
Giving up on their dreams and aspirations
This world is mine for the taking (I just keep getting better)
[Verse 2]
And I'm just stating real statements, grinding hard in the pavement
Life's of course what you make it (you can keep getting better)
You don't have to follow trends that they're making
Come with your own original creations (and keep getting better)
You don't have to be signed to a group
Or a label, you can represent you (you can keep getting better)
I'm just giving you an inventive clue
This is your art, stay independent, stay true (you can keep getting better)
Don't listen to anyone but yourself and God
He can guide you through the fog (just keep getting better)
Never give up on the love that you got
'Cause when you do that, you give up a lot (you can keep getting better)
It's easy distinguishing right from wrong
As for me, I'm gonna right all my wrongs (and I'ma keep getting better)
Just listen to the words in the song
This is motivation for you, stay strong (you can keep getting better)
[Hook]
While they're living, not caring about their ways
Selling drugs, getting locked up for some change (I just keep getting better)
While they're drinking and smoking their lives away
Doing nothing, pointing fingers for the blame (I just keep getting better)
While they're settling for less
Hooking up with anybody just to ease their lonely stress (I just keep getting better)
Giving up on their dreams and aspirations
This world is mine for the taking (I just keep getting better)
[Verse 3]
Now I'm 'bout to pick it up, 'bout to get a little buck
You better be looking up when I'm speaking it to you
I'm 'bout to give you wisdom in the way that I be spitting
And I know it's pretty fast, but still I'ma do it
And never get to thinking and fall into fiction
That you're never gonna make it 'cause of people hating on you daily
Ignorance is bliss, these people don't know shit
And for you to try to let it stop you is crazy
It's time to kick it into gear and get it together
You want it? Then never give up, you gotta get better
You're really ready? You said that you're clever
Gotta sever through the weather, set up shop and be ready for whatever
If it's a dream that you're following, there's never a pill too big to be swallowing
Hauling the evil up out of you, holler and praise the Lord
He's who you should be following, your tolerance level for suffering is astonishing
A monument placed inside your heart, it's time to honour it
Bond to it, never sit around wondering if you should be taking another path, you'll get lost again
It's time to preach standing at the Ottoman
Talking to all of 'em, polish it, calling 'em into the light of your parliamentary
Caught up in a lot of it, you gotta get a part of it
Dump it out, getting rid of all of your problems quick
And chilling in the bunker by the time all the bombs hit
I'm onto it like a detective, still steady wrecking
Giving you protection for all the shit that they say neglecting you
The truth is you got the power inside of your body
It's time for you to use it and fight back with the best of you
Your attitude gon' level out the latitudes, the devil gon' be mad at you
You did what you had to do and I'm glad for you
Now there's nothing you can't achieve, anything you wanna be
You're gonna be it, steady increasing your attributes, uh
[Hook]
While they're living, not caring about their ways
Selling drugs, getting locked up for some change (I just keep getting better)
While they're drinking and smoking their lives away
Doing nothing, pointing fingers for the blame (I just keep getting better)
While they're settling for less
Hooking up with anybody just to ease their lonely stress (I just keep getting better)
Giving up on their dreams and aspirations
This world is mine for the taking (I just keep getting better)
