(feat. Flex) [Flex] Keep on strivin Keep on strivin On [VERSE 1: Tragedy] I keep strivin and never quit Until I make the jam that hits Cause my name is Trag and Trag never quits Even though I had doubts in the back of my mind And I felt like givin up from time to time But I was destined for fame and one day I would shine Cause I don't need rings and a fat gold chain All I need is a aim and a positive brain Cause you gotta stay strong and go for yours Trials and tribulations form detours But I keep on movin and never throw the towel in Hungry, cause my stomach's growlin Fame is a pool and in it I'm divin I keep movin and keep on strivin Keep strivin Keep strivin Keep strivin Keep strivin [Flex] Keep on strivin Keep on strivin On [VERSE 2: Tragedy] You wanna hear hard times? Man listen The Trag didn't even have a pot to piss in I was sick of police snatchin me up by the collar Cause I was on the block tryin to make a fast dollar Cause I need money but crime's not the answer Now I'm making money with my DJ and my dancer When things got rough I had to sell my cable Cause I couldn't get a deal from a record label In the rap game you're bound to get jerked But I kept the dream, then I put it to work Kept my eyes upfront cause I couldn't look back And I never had time for the jealous crap Cause whether you're doin wrong or you're livin good Somebody's gonna say you're not doin what you should The more I learned the less I could care
Cause criticism is somethin I'm not tryin to hear Fame is a pool and in it I'm divin I keep movin and keep on strivin Keep strivin Keep strivin Keep strivin Keep strivin [Flex] Keep on strivin Keep on strivin On [VERSE 3: Tragedy] When the road gets rough and life gets trife Just bear it, you're gonna have to sacrifice Cause in this world only the strong survive Many a mornings I've searched for a nine to five My stomach growlin and my pockets hurt And for the whole week I wore the same t-shirt But I came too far just to turn around So kept my mind on the higher ground More sessions in the studio got delayed (Yo man, today Kane's workin) Yeah, I got played Hangin up at this radio station every week Just to get on the mic and get a chance to speak Just to show my talent like I knew I could Cause deep in my heart I knew I was good Motivation would build my sk** I never gave up and I never will I take the chance to go for mine So lay down the track and watch me shine With dreams, some try to tear it Hold me back and break my spirit I battle and fight cause the struggle gets longer The more you doubt, it makes me stronger Fame is a pool, so let me dive in I keep movin and keep on strivin Keep strivin [Flex] Keep on strivin Keep on strivin (You can do it, hold on) On Keep on strivin (Keep on strivin) The world is yours (Keep on strivin) Keep on strivin (Gotta hold on, hold on, yes you do) On On On (Hold on) On
