Lords Of The Underground

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
