Faith

Keep the faith (4x) [Verse One] [Mr. Funkee] It's been 21 years since I rose from the crotch Now that I'm grown I just sit back and watch Been almost 2 years since I dropped my first jam You still don't give me props but hey I understand You do what you got to keep from sinkin' in the sand Nowadays everybody wants to be the man Whenever I'm around you put up a front and shake my hand Smilin' in my face but can't wait to take my place So you can all be jealous but learn some control Be a man about it if you're a swole say you're swole Cause though you don't respect me you can never break my heart Because I kept the faith and stayed true to the art [Chorus]: I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me He won't deceive me, believe me I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me Believe me (Let the faith set you free) I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me He won't deceive me, believe me I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me Believe me (Let the faith set you free) [Verse Two] [DoItAll]: Well here's the jeep banger of the year I'm on another level but I still hang with my peers I got a couple of friends but why are they friends? Is it cause I hip hop and now I got ends? Although it used to be hard, it's easy for the skins Because I'm making music and I'm settin' mad trends Now it's got me wonderin' thinkin to myself "Will they be there when I'm knocked off the shelf?" Cause people come around only when you're doin' well Or when they try to pull you down by tuggin' on your tail So what the hell? (You got the faith) So if you tryin' to pull us down Well boy I swear it's too late Cause I got assistance beyond dissin' sistas And yeah you can hear it when it's blastin' in the system My lyrical is spiritual so don't get hysterical Cause when I'm doing well boy it ain't no miracle It's the faith [Chorus]: I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me He won't deceive me, believe me I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me Believe me (Let the faith set you free) I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me He won't deceive me, believe me I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me Believe me (Let the faith set you free) [Verse Three] [Mr. Funkee]: Now as the world play this game of ring around the rosy You find a lot of jealous people always being nosy I try to stay away from all you scandalous snakes in the grass That's always in your ass All up in my biz like "Yo, how can I be down?" Leave me alone and stop jockin' me clown When I was dead broke you wouldn't have nothin' to do with me But now all of a sudden yo you wanna crack a brew with me? [DoItAll]: Never did I think about the worth of my birth Not until now, it took my man to get hurt So Jazz tell me do you feel the struggle? (I feel the struggle) So oooh I guess I flow with the notes I'm doin what I'm doin and I'm doin this for you And with this in mind, see I won't stop pursue The credibility and the originality You know the type of stuff that takes me to the t.o.p? The faith [Chorus]: I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me He won't deceive me, believe me I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me Believe me (Let the faith set you free) I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me He won't deceive me, believe me I place all my faith in God cause God will never leave me Believe me (Let the faith set you free)
