Company You Keep
Lyrics
Don't doubt me
While I'm out here doing my thang
Some people in life don't have the same
Ambition when they out here in these streets
Watch the company you keep
Yeah
I'm a LA baby you know Jesus saved me
I got baptized in a AME
Like a product of promo
I was a ghetto child
Latch-key kid could've been claimed to the belly of the
Beast
I had a blinking light
Like a blinking bulb
That's blink 182
What you reap you sew
Like a philosophers stone
I changed with a blink of a eye
Look up in the sky you see the clouds flowing
Look down beneath you see the grass growing
Don't think that for one second that when you blink that you can't think
Don't think for one second that when you pray that you won't receive
Just think about it
Yeah
I had to speak about it
Life can be a happy thing
Some things in life are free
But the finer thangs in this life ain't cheap
I know people that know me that say I ain't changed
All the small things like a blinking bulb
That's blink 182
Don't doubt me
While I'm out here doing my thang
Some people in life don't have the same
Ambition when they out here in these streets
Watch the company you keep
Yeah
I graduated
I made it past 18 but still I'm saying mama pray for me
I'm isolated like its confidential
When I focus on my mental like it's instrumental
Life is one thing I never wanted to struggle
I accepted the work I never called it a hustle
And ever since success was within reach
Like a blinking bulb that's blink 182
P.S. I hope you happy
Don't doubt me
While I'm out here doing my thang
Some people in life don't have the same
Ambition when they out here in these streets
Watch the company you keep
Yeah
Sticks and stones
Hurt your bones
Well I pray for forgiveness within your home
This heart center is everything
Like how'm I supposed to think
How'm I supposed to live
How'm I supposed to dream
How'm I suppose to give if it's
Not easy to digest
Since distractions at an all time high
I'd rather focus on what I achieve no digress
One day at a time like the second hand on a Timex
Don't doubt me
While I'm out here doing my thang
Some people in life don't have the same
Ambition when they out here in these streets
Watch the company you keep
Don't doubt me
While I'm out here doing my thang
Some people in life don't have the same
Ambition when they out here in these streets
Watch the company you keep
Yeah
I'm a LA baby you know Jesus saved me
