Gotta Keep It Going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta, gotta, keep it going |
This is for my people hustling on the corner |
Out of breath, running, chasing that paper |
For my people on the grind, on that 9 to 5 |
Working hard every day, just to stay alive |
Seen many different faces, and many different ages |
Seen many different phases in so many different places |
Seen many different grinds, through many different minds |
There’s so much to see when looking through a set of different eyes |
Seen many people struggle, seen many people hustle |
Seen many people flossing, but they ain’t seeing nothing |
Seen many people walking, like they looking for something |
So many people talking, but they ain’t talking for nothing |
It don’t matter where you’re from, but only where you’re going |
'Cause only where you going, can determine where you’re from |
And I know that when we going, if it wasn’t for where we from |
We probably wouldn’t be growing, or shining like the sun |
This is for my people hustling on the corner |
Out of breath, running, chasing that paper |
For my people on the grind, on that 9 to 5 |
Working hard every day, just to stay alive |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta, gotta, keep it going |
Woke up this early morning, thinking about the grind |
How we gon' stay ahead, can’t afford to fall behind |
My mama always told me, when I was a little child |
You gotta keep it going, son, so get off or you be behind |
Keep it going, even though you know you’ve had enough |
'Cause you’ll never know what’s easy until you get it tough |
I guess in life, you have to keep it short, just to make it longer |
And what doesn’t kill you, will only make you stronger |
When the going is tough, you gotta keep pushing |
Let no one bring you down, only you know what you doing |
The motherland has spoken, it’s up to you to teach |
So we can make a difference, and we can live in peace |
This is for my people hustling on the corner |
Out of breath, running, chasing that paper |
For my people on the grind, on that 9 to 5 |
Working hard every day, just to stay alive |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta, gotta, keep it going |
This is for my people hustling on the corner |
Out of breath, running, chasing that paper |
For my people on the grind, on that 9 to 5 |
Working hard every day, just to stay alive |
I like the finest things in life |
I want the finest chick by my side |
Got a shotgun in my ride, my ride |
This is for my people hustling on the corner |
Out of breath, running, chasing that paper |
For my people on the grind, on that 9 to 5 |
Working hard every day, just to stay alive |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta keep it going |
Gotta, gotta, keep it going |
Finest things in life |
Finest chick by my side |
Got a shotgun in my ride, my ride |
