Gospel Lyrics >> Song Title :: Keep On Praisin'
Gospel Lyrics >> Song Artist :: TBone
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's all about who's at the top of the industry
Everyone's jealous, full of hate, greed and envy
Nowadays I don't 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 and addies while you warming up the church seats
But you don't hear me tho, turn and look the other way
But that's okay, I know God listening to what I got to say
I can't lie tho, 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 thug
I'ma 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
'till the day that I die I'ma keep on praisin
Pick up my cross and I'ma follow you
Even if my boys stay behind and I'm the only one in my crew
To be man enough to say God here I am
But people always quick to judge they don't understand
They talking about I ain't 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's 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's not about how many records we've sold but it's all about how many saved souls
Can you feel me?
Tears ran down my eyes yesterday as I heard about Tupac's death
He's already one left to say Lord I'ma stand in the gap
People's are you with me where you at
Cuz I'ma 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
'till the day that I die I'ma keep on prasin
Baby, baby
And even though they criticize me
Talk behind my back, and tell me hurtful words Till the day I'm dead when I'm in my grave it's God I'm gonna serve
So go ahead and talk about me and spread your lies
You the one accountable for every tear when I cry
Shed so many tears for so many years God can you help me I trying to reach all my peers
And if you don't hear I'ma 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 praisin God with every word that I speak
You hurt me but I gotta turn the other cheek
Cuz vengeance ain't mine, vengeance belongs to the Lord
We gotta come together, one mind, one accord
So to those who have ears let 'em listen
To what I'm sayin, with or without you homie, I'ma keep on praisin
CHORUS
Keep on praisin liftin up your name
I'm gonna keep on praisin
To live in Christ to die is gain
Can you feel me everybody gotta know
That I'ma keep on praisin
Till the day I'm dead in my grave I'm gonna keep on praisin
Ain't nothing or nobody gonna stop me
Lifting up the name of Christ you know what I'm saying
Till the day I'm dead, six feet under
I'ma keep on praisin homie
Rock on
