  • They said prayer was a master key
    If I pray then God would answer me, oh (Trillo Beats, you did it again)
    He really did
    He showed me His care
    Oh, His care, yeah
    Keep going, keep going
    Look

    And it's hard, I know, they want me to move on
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga

    What's happening Unc'? I know you looking down smiling at me
    I pray that you found some peace and you're finally happy
    But I can't sleep, dawg, I cry every fucking night
    This'll probably the hardest chapter of my fucking life
    Remember how we used to ride plotting on a plan
    Me and my nigga had a bond the world wouldn't understand
    God help a nigga understand this crazy life of mine
    So many funerals, court dates, suits and ties
    I get to thinking 'bout my nigga and can't help but cry
    Tell me how you leave me, nigga, without saying bye
    Remember how we used to ride, dawg, to you and me
    We beat that road, we should've been sponsored by GMC
    Deep in my heart, I don't think I could live this life without you
    Interstates and streetlights make me think about you
    Cleaner clothes and Sprinter vans make me shed a tear
    It made me cry just like a baby, dog, it been some years
    "Gotta keep going" in my brain, but in my heart, I'm feeling pain
    Beefing with depression, wish I had someone to blame
    I follow your every move, go on and lead the way
    If it weren't for Fat and Pain, nigga, I'd follow you to the grave

    And I every step I take (step I take)
    I can hear you say (hear you say)
    Keep going, keep going (keep going)
    Keep going, keep going (keep going)
    And it's hard, I know, they want me to move on
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (oh, no)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga
    Look (oh)

    And I been through so many things but this shit the hardest
    Tell me why I'm feeling pain, always brokenhearted?
    Yeah, them niggas did they thing, but you the sharpest
    In my eyes, you'll remain the motherfucking largest
    Tell me, how was seeing Deyjah and your son Tazarus?
    Tell me, do they let us gangsters in the heaven parties?
    Tell my nigga Fat Feezy that I'm fucked up 'bout him
    And tell my nigga Brock I'm sorry that I left without him
    And they ask if I'm okay, I just lie about it (yeah)
    To myself I cry about it then get high about it (yeah)
    Them niggas knew how you was feeling and they let me know (oh)
    You could've told me anything, I wouldn't tell a soul
    Tell me why Simmons signed, I can't stop from crying
    Tell me that you ain't alright and I wouldn't leave your side
    Nigga, we undefeated, why you leave like this?
    We did the impossible, it ain't shit you can't fix
    Nigga, it's impossible for me to see you like that
    Tell me how do I move forward without you watching my back
    And tell me how do I move on now that you gone, I can't
    This the last lap of the turtle race

    And I every step I take (step I take) (and every step I take)
    I can hear you say (hear you say) (I hear you say)
    Keep going, keep going (keep going, keep going)
    Keep going, keep going (keep going)
    And it's hard, I know, they want me to move on (they want me to move on)
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (I ain't ready, no)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga
    Every step I take (step I take)
    I can hear you say (hear you say)
    Keep going (keep going, young nigga, keep going)
    Keep going (keep going, young nigga)
    Don't stop going
    And it's hard, I know, they want me to move on (they want me to move on)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (oh, yeah)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (yeah)
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (oh)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (it's hard, I know)
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (they want me to move on)
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (I ain't ready, no)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (I ain't ready, I ain't ready)
    But I ain't ready to let go, my nigga
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (I ain't ready, I ain't ready)
    I ain't ready, I ain't ready, I ain't ready (I ain't ready, no)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (yeah)
    I ain't ready to let go, my nigga (keep going, my nigga, keep going)
