Keep Pushin - Plies

I dealt with death in my family, I thought my heart would never heal

When I was young, I never understood the pressure paying bills

I was lost and I was confused when my daddy disappeared

If I had to raise my kids by myself, I wonder how that would feel

I could they lay my Auntie off after 27 years

She got four kids and a grand-baby she try to take care

My lil' niece 13, got her on birth control pills

There are some mornings I wake up feel like a slave in the fields

Started feeling like Pac 'cause I done shed so many tears

This pressure on me still, I hold my head in the air

I refuse to let it break me 'cause the world don’t give a damn

You won’t ever hear me complain even though it ain’t fair

Your mistakes in this world is another person’s smile

I may fall and I may… but I will never lay down

Dig deep in my soul and pick my soul up off the ground

'Fore I let myself sink I’m a turn it all around

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I can’t look back, too many problems in my past

I can’t stand still 'cause my life ain’t beaten path

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I often ask the question why is God punishing me

He try to make me strong but that’s all that, it can’t be

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I gotta keep pushing, I gotta keep pushing

I was born in the hood, I was born to be a fighter

Won’t care about being perfect, cause it won’t make you wiser

Some things I could control, some things weren’t my fault

Ain’t ever had regrets, even after I took the loss

I never fear a human, my only fear is God

Cause I don’t know when he coming, and that’s a scary thought

Or know my future whole, or when my last supper

But one thing that I do know, when I die, I’m a die hustler
