MAINTAIN Verse 1: They asked me my race It oId them it's human This Worlds a disgrace It's all an illusion They love to distract and causing confusion I came to the conclusion ya'll love the intrusion That's why it’s out with the old & in with the new I outgrew all that’s harmful to things that I pursue we all do make some mistakes we must grow through to show you your purpose in life some have no clue Too busy tryna fit in you don’t know you You blame everyone else we all owe you I was stuck in this cycle but changed my ways Nowadays from crime pays to rhyme pays in nine ways now I see past my blind ways The future looks awfully bright my shine blaze With high praise now I pull out my driveways To highways taking me to the skyways Hook: I maintain feeling the pain I maintain I maintain feeling the pressure I maintain I maintain pressure bust pipes I maintain I maintain pressure makes diamonds I maintain I maintain feeling the pain I maintain I maintain feeling the pressure I maintain I maintain pressure bust pipes I maintain I maintain pressure makes diamonds I maintain Verse 2: I love to see the world and travel around it I hate the police when they have me surrounded Why am I in court feeling truly astounded Innocent pleading guilty there’s no way around it I take plea so they won’t enslave me I bravely cop out just to save me It ain’t about right or wrong it’s all about money Cause you can blow trial if you ain’t got no money I thank the lord that I’m black and that ain’t a joke But I can’t afford to be black and totally broke I spent years of my life knowing that I was right Although I try to fight oppression I’m losing the fight And when I look at my brother I see the same pain in his eyes the same pain in his guise the same pain Instead of us being allies we would rather despise one another through feeling the same pain Hook: I maintain feeling the pain I maintain I maintain feeling the pressure I maintain I maintain pressure bust pipes I maintain I maintain pressure makes diamonds I maintain I maintain feeling the pain I maintain I maintain feeling the pressure I maintain I maintain pressure bust pipes I maintain I maintain pressure makes diamonds I maintain
