Keep On Sippin'
Letra:
[English]
TouchofTrent be wildin' with it
I done gave you e'rything, how you gon' keep on trippin'?
I gave my word to my higher self, say, "I ain't gon' keep on sippin'"
I know how love is, so therefore, I'ma keep my distance
I know how love is, when I stay away, that's when I'm the richest, wish I
Keep on sippin', when you damn near goin' broke, you wanna keep on sippin'
I made a promise to myself, I ain't gon' keep on sippin'
When my girl had broke my heart, it made me keep on sippin'
Thinkin' 'bout bro nem on that deathbed, I keep on sippin'
Them Percocets and Xannies make me wanna keep on sippin'
Before I threat you, I'll keep it in and keep on sippin'
Pass me my cup, so I keep on sippin'
Pass me my cup, so I
She told me that she had my back when I did my time, but I know that she lyin', she lyin', she lyin'
First day up in rehab, I was actin' like I was denial, I lied, lied, lied, lied
When you cash out on a porn star, you put your lifestyle on the line
I told 'em I'd stop drinkin', they instantly knew I was lyin'
You dancin' 'round with the demons, you spiritual, take a bath
If you tapped in with the higher power, you don't need to be embarrassed
She told me if I keep sippin', ain't no need to get married
My first day havin' withdrawals, couldn't believe, it was scary
Visine, it was blurry, in the deep, you witness murder
I damn near couldn't believe all the things I done heard of, so I
Keep on sippin', when you damn near goin' broke, you wanna keep on sippin'
I made a promise to myself, I ain't gon' keep on sippin'
When my girl had broke my heart, it made me keep on sippin'
Thinkin' 'bout bro nem on that deathbed, I keep on sippin'
Them Percocets and Xannies make me wanna keep on sippin'
Before I threat you, I'll keep it in and keep on sippin'
Pass me my cup, so I keep on sippin'
Pass me my cup, so I
Dead and gone, they'll show you love just with a hashtag
You say that we family, you not around, that shit a red flag (yeah, yeah)
Tell 'em that you love me, don't say it back, that shit a red flag (hmm)
This new generation don't show you love, just with a head-tap (yeah)
Say it to my face, you basically tellin' me on the -, federal
You ain't never speak yo' mind before you hear, jack, terrible
Test my gangsta like you said you was, I'm darin' you
I see them minions, boy, you scarin' who?
I don't need a big gun, I got my big palms (big palms)
I'm tryna get shit done, but that's the shayṭān (shayṭān)
I turned my life around, I gave it to Islam (Islam)
I wanna drink yo' lean, but I ain't get none
Keep on sippin', when you damn near goin' broke, you wanna keep on sippin'
I made a promise to myself, I ain't gon' keep on sippin'
When my girl had broke my heart, it made me keep on sippin'
Thinkin' 'bout bro nem on that deathbed, I keep on sippin'
Them Percocets and Xannies make me wanna keep on sippin'
Before I threat you, I'll keep it in and keep on sippin'
Pass me my cup, so I keep on sippin'
Pass me my cup, so I
There's a stigma in the inner cities (yeah)
For young black boys and young black women to-to go to rehab (yeah)
To seek therapy, to seek help
This for the youth or this for the older people who wanna, who wanna do better (of course)
And, and feel like they embarrassed or feel like a lot goin' on or people gon' talk about it
Well, if I do it, they gon' do it
