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 wasnât about the money or the fame
Remember when it used to be strictly ministry
Now itâs all about whoâs at the top of the industry
Everyoneâs jealous, full of hate, greed and envy
Nowadays I donât even know who my own friends be
They criticized, talked about, stabbed behind my back
And playa haters still trying to bang gospel rap
My heart goes out to the streets
I'm tryin to reach thugs and addicts while you warming up the church seats
But you donât hear me tho, turn and look the other way
But thatâs okay, I know God listening to what I got to say
I canât lie though, sometimes I feel like giving up
When all this hurt and pain inside me starts building up
I start crying but God shows me love and even if I never ever win a Dove
Iâma keep on praisinâ
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
Can you feel me I gotta keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
âTill the day that I die Iâma keep on praisin
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
To live in Christ to die is gain
Pick up my cross and Iâma follow you
Even if my boys stay behind and Iâm the only one in my crew
To be man enough to say God here I am
But people always quick to judge they donât understand
They talking about I ainât 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
Thatâs 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
Itâs not about how many records weâve sold but itâs all about how many saved souls
Can you feel me?
Tears ran down my eyes yesterday as I heard about Tupacâs death
Heâs already one left to say Lord Iâma stand in the gap
My peopleâs are you with me where you at
cuz Iâma keep on praisin
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
Can you feel me I gotta keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
âtill the day that I die Iâma keep on prasin
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
Baby baby
To live in Christ to die is gain
And even though they criticize me
Talk behind my back, and tell me hurtful words Till the day Iâm dead in my grave itâs God Iâm gonna serve
So go ahead and talk about me and spread your lies
You the one accountable for every tear when i cry
I shed so many tears for so many years God can you help me I trying to reach all my peers
And if you donât hear Iâma 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 wanna get more spiritual
Lyrically, I'm praisin God with every word that I speak
You hurt me but I gotta turn the other cheek
Cuz vengeance ainât mine, vengeance belongs to the Lord
We gotta come together, one mind, and one accord
So to those who have ears let âem listen
To what Iâm sayin, with or without you homie, Iâma keep on praisin
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
Iâm gonna keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
Can you feel me everybody gotta know
that Iâma keep on praisin
Till the day Iâm dead in my grave Iâm gonna keep on praisin
Ainât nothing or nobody gonna stop me
Lifting up the name of Christ you know what I'm saying
Till the day Iâm dead, six feet under
Iâma keep on praisin homie
