Keep Going
[Verse 1]
This me tryna keep my head up thru the pain
Imagine coming home to your building in flames
A day before your birthday
Wondering why you was put here in the first place
So you can keep getting fucked over?
Must've been Hitler in my past life I'm receiving his left over karma
Either that or Osama, Bin Laden that is
Handling biz while sitting home watching the kids
And it's not because you have to it's only 'cause you care
Kids wild out when adult's not there
Life's not fair but I gotta be thankful I'm here
The short, skinny kid wit the braids in his hair
Yeah I'm aware that I'm rare, I glare with much flare
Clipping dudes up like kings who cut hair
Just lost it all a few years ago
When you down there's one thing you need to know
It's gonna get better (it's gonna get better)
Say it's gonna get better (it's gonna get better)
Try to keep your head up above the bullshit
Times get rough and tough when your hit
Believe me, I know what it is from experience
Seriously, king listen to me
When I'm feelin' a way I pull my phone out
Put my headphones on and zone-z-zone out
[Hook]
When you feel like you wanna give up (keep going)
When you feel like enough is enough (keep going)
You feel like you trying hard as you can (keep going)
No matter what put your heart back in and
Keep going (keep going) (8x)
[Verse 2]
All my life it felt like I'm destined to fail
No matter where I go it's like I'm living in hell
But I know damn well I ain't this talented for nothing
Scale tipped towards bad, should balance it or something
Rapping got me feeling like I'm running from life
And this insomnia got me up all night
Trying to mix a track or produce a beat
Going broke every time I put this heat in the streets
But my evening ain't complete unless I'm musically satisfied
Working on music got me use to being classified
As a bum nigga, who don't got a job
Living wit his baby sister and his mom
Stuck on probation for five years straight
And a B.M. who loves to keep his daughter away
But when she grow up, and tries to rebel, stealing from retail
Or shaking her tail to get attention from males
Don't try to blame me, shorty blame yourself
You're the one who'd rather put your daughter after yourself
Women swear like they're holier than thou
But when a black father wants to be there they act foul
Always got your feelings over the childs
She's hurting inside and can't cry out loud
Just hold on Beautiful it will get better
I know that it hurts but you always gotta remember
[Hook]
