Still Singing - TOBi

Show some kindness

Whole lotta trauma I’m used to

Whole lotta problems I’m used to

A whole lot

On cold days, I was cooped up

Kick a rhyme, scheme a dime, shit, I don’t do much

Middle finger twice grew up

You say, «Fuck me», well, the feeling is mutual (Ah-ha)

The devil and perfection is a lie

Maybe why I can’t tell a lie like I used to

Damn, nigga, I am with it

Took the baton and I just ran with it

Took the baton and ran with it

Don’t forget who hands give it

And If you ever get the fame

Don’t forget the fam in it

Really, ain’t too far from the famine

It’s hard when it’s in my backyard, aye

Through these keys, let my soul sing

Through these keys, hear my soul sing, yeah

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

Still gonna sing

Long as this song is in my heart

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

I hope mama and pop proud

Hope I got the whole block proud

School days, we was on lockdown

Schoolyard fights, we had lots now

Can’t shake what I got

Ten years later, make the whole city rock now

Aye, look how you raised me

Oh, now, look how I raise you

It’s you and you who I take to

A wise man said, «When it come from the heart, ain’t no take two, you dig?»

Learned how to sing on the staircase

I learned how to sing when the tears came

I learned how to

Had this song in my soul

But the fear put a hold on everything, it’s on everything

Where the future is untold

I hope it unfold, poetic

Feel every word, so my tongue won’t forget it

Through these keys, let my soul sing

Through these keys, hear my soul sing, yeah

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

Long as this song is in my heart

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

I’m still gonna sing

Came a long way

A lot more to go

Still gonna sing

In my heart

I’m still gonna sing
