lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah..
Nato!

[Verse 1]
We going from freestyling at the lunch table,
To working at a restaurant where I bussed tables,
To invest all that money in an imac,
& now I'm always tied up & never untangled.
Look it's been a lot of years, it's a process,
You leaving comments like why yo why you not on yet?
Well in Due times all I could respond with,
I'm 26 & i don't know where the time went.
I gotta make a way..yeah ..yeah,
I gotta make a way ..yeah..yeah,
I became anti social but I'm mobile every minute,
With victorious corneas, ooh winning is my vision.
Hackin at the money tree til the day my axe broke (broke)
Tryna stay above the water like a back stroke,
1 day I chose the music over cash so,
All of a sudden, I'm gettin blessings in abundance, huh..

[Hook]
Keep up, keep up, try to keep up,
All them years I've been workin I don't see nothing,
Can't stop cause I'm in it for the long run.
I can't stop cause I'm in it for the long run.
So Keep Up, keep up, better keep up,
All them years I been working better mean something,
Can't stop cause I'm in it for the long run.
I can't stop cause I'm in it for the long run.

[Verse 2]
Ayo killing it's a breeze (now) instrumental murder scene,
Ya learning that I'm nice, educate ya on some courtesy,
I was buying time, now my time is reimbursing me,
Meaning I would grind every night til it occurred to me,
That I need to get out there, like the movie get out yeah,
People told me I got talent, thank you now I'm well aware,
I'm becoming something that I should of been a minute back,
I Seen the big picture grow from vizio to cinemax.
Everything is clicking, everyone is distant,
Reason I ain't blow up, cause I never was consistent.
I donno what happened, I was ambushed with ambition,
Cause ya really sleepin on me like a critical decision.
I said that line before, I recycle lines,
But i don't really mind cause it still applies,
And I bout to lie, I won't lie to ya,
I won't lie to ya, ya could try but you'll never ever

[Hook 2x]
