Stephen Route - Keep On livin' Lyrics

Keep on livin'
Yeah,
Keep on livin'
Don't matter what
Yeah, He stopped playin' ball, then he started writin' songs
Never had his mom, that's where all his pain is gone
Still he felt small, even though he's tall
Pops never called, he was not involved
Left his little boy with his nana, nana
Now he's in his room makin' jams up, jams up
Nana, she don't really got the answers
Grandma's in the hospital with cancer
So he's back to writin' rhymes like all the time
He was only nine, don't call him a baby Tears fallin' down his eyes
Listen to his songs, cause that gave him pride
Lookin' to the sky, God showed him signs
That was by design, yeah, yeah
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
Yeah
Age 16, nana kicked him out
Said she don't wanna see him back in the house
Now he's sleepin' in the streets, tryna find peace
Pin his pain to the sheets, listenin' to beats
One Route To The Game was his first project
Computer clubhouse, recordin' was his only option
Mathline, that was his team, that he started as a teen
Put his boys on the scene, makin' money was the dream
Now he's sleepin' in the car, still writin' bars
No healin' from the scars, God fought him like he's lost
Makin' music was his job, cause he did it with his heart
He was livin' in the dark, so this is how it starts
Just playin' with his thoughts, yeah, yeah
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
Yeah,
Now he's 21, had his only son
Second album done, Mathline was on the run
On the stages havin' fun, they was shinin' like the sun
Tryna make a ton, risin' like a bun
Now it's back to square one, cause he lost everyone
Ego's got involved, they was too young to evolve
Mathline split and went their own way
Now he's lonely, standin' at the doorway
Writin' albums, workin' at his own pace
Headin' to the moon, he's in his own space
Now he's makin' records in his own place
God gave him grace, music kept him safe
Nothin' else to say, yeah, yeah, yeah
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
If you want my advice, keep on livin' Keep on livin', keep on livin', keep on livin
