Masta Ase Inc. - Maintain слова песни
Verse One: Masta AseI`m surrounded, by psychopathic, little fellasGhetto dwellasWith ammunition in their cellasAnd no remorse in their heartsWhen the shit starts it don`t endUntil somebody`s gone with the windAnd I`m tryin` to keep a level head so insteadOf goin` out to die, I write rhymes on my bedAnd little kids at the playgroundBetter stay downKeep duckin`Cause somebody else is buckin`Don`t seem to be no relief from the beefOnly nigga round my way without the gold teethAnd the gold chain, with the whole name on my neckJewelries your worse enemy without a techI`m tryin` to maintain, but it ain`t workin`Niggas keep lurkin`Through the darkness I see the Grim Reaper smirkin`Could it be that he`s smilin` at meNot tryin` to see fatal injury, injuryWhat must I do to avoid the painIt seems insane, but I gotta maintainI can feel the pressure on my brainFeel the strainBut I gotta maintainCHORUS:Workin` hard may help ya maintainBe able to maintainBe able to maintainWorkin` hard may help ya maintainBe able to, be able toBe able to maintainWorkin` hard may help ya maintainBe able to maintainBe able to maintainWorkin` hard may help ya maintainBe able to, be able toBe able to maintainVerse Two: Lord DiggaBack in the days I use to do a little dirtNow that`s comin` back around, and man it hurtsTo see everbody gettin` onBut I got to wait cause of the things I done wrongIn my life, I regret itBut the man upstairs won`t let me forget itEverytime I think of doin` somethin` rightHere comes a dark tunnel with no signs of a lightI got to fight to keep my head above waterDollars are real tight, I be askin` bums for quartersI had enough of the quick cashSo I got to find a way to make the shit lastIn the past I woulda just gave upBut there`s more days to come, I know they bring ya good luckSo I`m a keep doin` what I`m doin`Sippin` on the brew and catchin` wreck wit my crewin`I feel stuck with a lot of aches and painsAnd it`s stressin` me, but I gotta maintain(Maintain, maintain)/ I gotta maintain(Maintain, maintain)/ I gotta maintainCHORUSVerse Three:There`s too much pressure and stress on my chestLife`s a messAnd I feel depressedSeems so hard to survive and stay aliveJump in my ride and I drive, doin` 95With my system blastin`I`m passin` cars in the right lane, light change I`m gasin`No, destinationBut I`m racin`With my lights on, I got my brights onPlay the right songAnd the sweat beeds my fiveDrive past Five-O and now they givin` chaseThey`ll probably want to know where the fire`s atOr where the drug buyers atFuck, my tire`s flatI guess I`m pullin` over, to take a lossBut it won`t be the loss of my life from drivin` off courseGod knows I need to be here to shap me son`s brainSo I gotta maintainCHORUSCHORUS (fades out)
