T-Bone - Keep On Praisin´ lyrics

Chorus 2x
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
To live in Christ, to die is gain

Growin up in the cold world
This industries cloggin up my brain
Got memories of when gospel rap wasn´t about the money or the fame
Remember when it used to be strictly ministry
Now it is all about who has at the top of the industry
Everyone has jealous, full of hate, greed & envy
Nowadays I do not even know who my own friends be
They criticized, talked about, stabbed behind my back
And playa haters still trying to bag gospel rap
My heart goes out to the streets
I try to reach thugs & addies while you warming up the church seats
But you do not hear me tho, turn & look the other way
But that is okay, I know God listening to what I got to say
I cannot lie tho, sometimes I feel like giving up
When all this hurt & pain inside me starts building up
I start crying but God shows me love & even if I never ever win a thug
I ama keep on praisin´
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
Can you feel me I´ve got to keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
‘until the day that I die I ama keep on praisin

Pick up my cross & I ama follow you
Even if my boys stay behind & I am the only one in my crew
To be man enough to say God here I´m
But people always quick to judge they do not understand
They talking about I aint real but who are you to judge me
God be the only one who knows just what I feel
So many rappers nowadays caught up in competition
That is why gospel rap be full of so much division
believe me when I say it breaks my heart to think that we was once in unity but now we all been torn apart
It isn´t about how many records we have sold but it is all about how many saved souls
Can you feel me?
Tears ran down my eyes yesterday as I heard about Tupac´s death
He has already one left to say Lord I ama stand in the gap
People´s are you with me where you at
cuz I ama keep on praisin
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
Can you feel me I´ve got to keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
‘until the day that I die I ama keep on prasin
baby, baby
And even though they criticize me
Talk behind my back, & tell me hurtful words Until the day I am dead when I am in my grave it is God I am going to serve
So go ahead & talk about me & spread your lies
You the one accountable for every tear when i cry
shed so many tears for so many yeahrs God can you help me I trying to reach all my peers
And if you do not hear I ama try harder
Even if I die from bullet shots like a martyr
This will be driving me hysterical
God I need a miracle
Devil keep trying to hit me when I want to get more spiritual
Lyrically, I praisin God with every word that I speak
You hurt me but I´ve got to turn the other cheek
Cuz vengeance aint mine, vengeance belongs to the Lord
We´ve got to come together, one mind, one accord
So to those who´ve ears let ‘em listen
To what I am sayin, with or without you homie, I ama keep on praisin
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
I am going to keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
Can you feel me everybody have got to know
that I ama keep on praisin
Until the day I am dead in my grave I am going to keep on praisin
Aint nothing or nobody going to stop me
Lifting up the name of Christ you know what I am saying
Until the day I am dead, six feet under
I ama keep on praisin homie
Rock on
