Keep Hope

Damn, rest in power to the Blackest Panther
I know how your family feel, my granny died of cancer
Rap niggas filling blanks to shit I never answer
Gotta stand for something when they hold you at a higher standard
Yeah, and live on camera another Black was slaughtered
And Kobe death hit a lil' harder, all I had was daughters
ADD got niggas up and cashing out for water
She went from [?] God to OnlyFans, ask about her
Disrespected Obama when they elected Trump
Pray this COVID-19 shit won't be the death of us
You know it's real niggas eating, the game blessing us
Chunking big B's for Breonna, T and the rest of us

Yeah, fighting my demons, it's a battle within
For all my fallen soldiers, light a candle again
They say that He don't put you through what you can't handle, you dig?
For all my losses, I turn on my savage and win, I gotta (Yeah)
I gotta keep hope, yeah
Only way is up but it's a steep slope
I feel the pain cutting deep though
All I know is, all I know is gotta keep hope

Yeah, don't let them people psych you out and get your life for that
And don't be scared to run your bag up, on the righteous route
I'll always be there for my girlies, long as time allow
And never put the streets before em, nigga how that sound?
This hunnid thou' that I just counted, it came from off the road
I put him on 'cause he on rap and trap is all he know (Uh)
I got my blessings in abundance, that was all she wrote (For real)
I put my people in position, you can't call us broke (Oh yeah)
Overlooked my dawg addiction 'til he overdosed (Uh)
And it be times I question God like, "He wadn't 'posed to go" (What?)
She say she got me but I know she don't
She say she'll always be there for me but I know she won't

Yeah, fighting my demons, it's a battle within
For all my fallen soldiers, light a candle again
They say that He don't put you through what you can't handle, you dig?
For all my losses, I turn on my savage and win, I gotta (Yeah)
I gotta keep hope, yeah
Only way is up but it's a steep slope
I feel the pain cutting deep though
All I know is, all I know is gotta keep hope
