The Final Answer - Focus and Maintain

I’m just a little bit bigger than I was before,
I’ve got an attitude, people still love me though,
I always knew down in my heart it would all come out,
Another poet writing poetry from the heart of the south.
Another body trying to maintain,
Around the world we’re trying to maintain,
So in my hood we do the same thing.
But homie I was born with that,
We’ve been around longer than Crown and Jack,
A Jack of all trades, want to play with that,
But once the game starts,
There ain’t no turning back.
I lost a couple of times but hey, I learned from that,
I healed up,
I took a couple of years to relax and build up.
And now I’m doing better than ever you understand,
You’ll be surprised at what you learn,
The testimony lies deep within.

And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying, steady trying,
And we’re trying so hard to maintain.

I know you’re running at a fast pace,
Disappointed with the game, wearing a sad face,
Your heart’s holding mad hate.
Ever had somebody who would hold you tight,
Practically die to get you through the night,
That’s when the mood was right.
Now love is like a cymbal in this song,
He hit it for the moment, after that the vibe is gone.
Some people don’t know man,
The answer is so plain,
I settled down y’all, now I focus on most things.
Got it all planned,
When things start happening, it’s so strange,
But you’ve got to try to maintain.
And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying, steady trying,
And we’re trying so hard to maintain.

Trying to maintain, sitting up late at night, constantly working,
trying to reach a perfect point of perfection,
but we’re not perfect.
Y’all that line’s been understood,
And come to think about it, I was never good.
It’s a constant struggle trying to maintain,
People dying just to maintain,
But when it’s over you can laugh man.
I done seen it all before,
I screamed a lot of times down that foggy road.
A lot of sings will tell you which way to go,
Couldn’t read so I learned from the crazy folks.
Been through a lot things, they couldn’t shake me though,
But I gained so much of knowledge, it’s amazing bro,
And I learned the facts,
Think of all the things I’ve been through, think back,
Of all of the struggles and what we learned from that,
On a mission to succeed, you’ve got to believe,
So much of drama in the heart of the weak.

And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying, steady trying,
And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying so hard to maintain,
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And we’re trying, steady trying,
And we’re trying so hard to maintain.
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
You’ve got to focus on the game and try to maintain people.
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
And Were trying so hard to maintain,
And we’re trying, steady trying.
