Keeper

Bounce (bounce) Bounce (bounce) Bounce (bounce) Yeah Buu E. Radley Third time in a row Still undefeated The Mockingbird Still undefeated Don't be stuck on the clothes that I rock, dude Don't be sold on the car that I drive through You should really see how I live Then you'd dig that you dealin' wit' a million dollar kid From the hood to the burbs I kept it real in both Spoke truth with my words that could kill a ghost Most people lie to themselves to sleep at night Instead of battle their demons, a truth seekers life If you ran my credit score without seeing my face You would swear I was a White man in a cape You would swear I was an heir to an estate You would swear that Bel-Air is where I stay But I'm the prince of focus Principled since the open Of my eyes upon my birth in '95 Minus two, 'cause I was born in '93 Been on the road to become who I'm destined to be You remember when I was down on my dick, huh? You remember when I ain't amount to shit, huh? You remember when I couldn't pull a bitch Now I can't keep 'em off me wit' a 20 foot stick Oh, what a difference a day makes How I go from the butt of the joke to every woman's playmate? When my eyes close and I take my last breath We can chop it up bout how I been since you left I'm a keep I'm a keep I'm a keeper (R.I.P) You know I'm a keep I'm a keep (He's a keeper) I'm a keep (I'm a keep) I'm a keep (I'm a keep) I'm a keeper (Y'all might say I'm a fly young dude now, huh?) I'm a keep (He's a keep) (Keeps on keeping me) 2nd chance at life I'd tell The Lord "Keep it" I wouldn't relive it or be reincarnated Because I'm one of a kind Once in a lifetime Once an existence More interested in dying I wanna know the mystery of it and the science Why do people call dead relatives when they flying? From the physical plane headed on to the next I wanna know what's ahead Wanna know it in depth Life has been a bid It's felt rigged Since the days of my youth Got me second guessing having a kid I could be a father Bring life into this cold world But what resentment for me would they harbor? To feel the horror of walking a daughter to the altar To be a spirit seeing the obituary authored By my seed that I tried my best to raise Givin' it all I had to have given them better days Why is this life trifling? Why is this life stifling? Why did God make it hard to live this life righteous? Many lanes that all lead to the lake of fire Filled with pain and eternal regret of not trying To serve The Lord with a pure heart since the beginning Forgiven time after time, but just kept sinning Cyndi was onto something Every time that I fall God's merciful hands catching me before the floor He's a keep He's a keep He's a keeper You know He's a keep He's a keep (He's a keeper) He's a keep He's a keep He's a keeper You know He's a keep (He's a keep) Lawd have mercy on me Living foolish Everybody can see Promise to be true 'Til the end of time
