Gotta keep it going
Gotta keep it going
Gotta keep it going
Gotta, 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 the nine to five
Working hard every day, just to stay alive

So many different faces, so many different ages
So many different phases, so many different places
So many different cries, too many different minds
There's so much to see, we're looking through us in a different eye
So many people struggle, so many people hustle
So many people flossing, but they ain't seeing nothing
So many people walking, like they looking for something
So many different people talking, but they ain't talking for nothing
It don't matter where you're from, but only where you're going
'Cos 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 the nine to five
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
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 go 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 your big behind
Keep it going, even though you know you've had enough
'Cos you'll never know what's easy, until you've get it tough
I guess in life, you gotta keep it short to have 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 the nine to five
Working hard every day, just to stay alive

This is for my people hustling on the corner
Out of breath, running, chasing that paper
For my people on the grind, on the nine to five
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
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 the nine to five
Working hard every day, just to stay alive

I like the finest things in life
I want the finest chic by my side
Got a shot-gun in my ride, my ride

I like the finest things in life
I want the finest chic by my side
Got a shot-gun 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 the nine to five

Gotta keep it going

Gotta, gotta keep it going
Gotta keep it going
Gotta keep it going
Gotta keep it going
Gotta, gotta keep it going

Finest things in life
Finest chic by my side
