Keep Movin' On
(专辑: Season Of The Assassin - 2010)
I
lost my job at the
factory and that's disastrous They said it's due to regulation and higher taxes They ain't give me no notice. They knocked me off my axis I
can't pay the
electric bill. It's total blackness I
suggested some incentives for innovation But that was met with resistance like it's a
sin of Satan I'm losing my patience over here. I'm sick of waiting And I
ain't never expect to be in this situation And the
manufacturing jobs are fading fast (Damn) Can't do nothing else. I
should've stayed in class I
have to wait till summertime to cut the
blades of grass I
have this little bit of money. Have to make it last I
have children to feed. I
have a
loving wife I
had a
hard time coming that was nothing nice I
keep asking myself what am I
doing wrong And they just look at me and tell me "Keep it moving on" [Shara Worden:] Keep moving on But I
don't know where to go Nowhere to go Keep moving on It was like '91, '92 I
remember people telling us that ain't nobody signing you There's no Italians or Puerto Ricans that's shining through Y'all should just go back and just do what y'all was designed to do We ain't listened to none of that. We hard-headed We took it back to the
lab and then the
God set it We smoked L's, drank liquor and we got wetted And everything we did back then was barbaric Around '94 had some labels take notice They said that Stoupe was the
illest but that I
ain't focused The
label execs needed to be explained dopeness And that's around the
time I
thought that it became hopeless We was still in the
street. D
was moving strong I
was failing out of school. It wasn't cool with moms I
was asking myself, "What was we doing wrong?" And why the
industry keep saying to keep it moving on [Shara Worden:] Keep moving on But I
don't know where to go Nowhere to go Keep moving on I
signed up cause they promised me some college money I
ain't the
smartest motherfucker but I'm not a
dummy They told me I
would be stationed in places hot and sunny I
had a
lot of pride. Motherfuckers got it from me These people over here innocent. They never harmed me My sergeant tried to convince me that they would try to bomb me I
feel like an outsider stuck inside this army Everybody brainwashed. American zombies I
ain't realized how much it set me back Until I
lost my leg and then they sent me back I
don't have anything now. I'm left with scraps From a
government who created AIDS, invented crack People told me not to join. I
tried to prove 'em wrong Now I'm homeless and I'm cold without no food thas' warm I
keep asking myself, "What did I
do that's wrong?" And the
government telling me, "Keep it moving on" Yeah, a
wise man once said There is no progress, without struggle I'm a
believer in that shit I
struggled my whole life Feel me on this here [Shara Worden] Ohhhhhhhh, keep movin, keep movin (Pazienza) Keep movin, keep mooooooovin on
