Atmosphere, Mondee - Keep Steppin’ lyrics
[Atmosphere, Mondee - Keep Steppin’ lyrics]
It goes job after job after
Blow to the self value
He doesnt get along with powerful people
The mind is a box kept locked
Inside is the pride and the ego
And he can't find the keyhole
Compensates with alcohol and hate
And contimplates whether or not he
Wants to be awake bounce around the words
All the nouns and verbs
But better the latter then never
Doesnt work for work
Can't hold employment, can't hold a girl
But he can hold a weapon and
Keep this whole world steppin
Another angry arrogant American
One frustrated step away from where you stand
Put your hands up for PHERE or fear it'self
Or write it off as balances and cheques
Or take the sign out the window and change
It to say you want to help
And maybe we can talk him
Into walking up these steps
Keep looking up try to count them
How many left look em up
One at a time, until your out of breath
One foot infront of the other right, left
And spend your whole life
Climbing these steps (Brother)
For every boy that she allows
To step on her heart
She comes one step closer to
Findin what she needs
The sad part is shes still
Stuck somewhere behind the start
Still doesnt know what it takes
To make it leave
That tattoo bleeds upon the paid dues
Break the rules, to balance the odds
Challenge her God
The untrained eye thinks shes
Got it all together
But the first time I seen
Her smile I knew better
Write down the letters, piece them in order
Make sense out of a sentence
Give the picture a border
Got to sort through the images
That clutter the soul
But the photo got fried cause
The shutter didn't close
Over exposed, too many steps, too soon
Killed the pain with a Jameson
Under a Blue Moon
She climbs, she cries, she wait's
How many more can she take
Before her legs break
(Sister)
So if you're doing bad I'mma sing about you
And if you're doing good
I'mma sing about you
Whether or not you knew I've
Been singin about you it's all I know
I don't know what else to do
When you take a step I take a step
Or maybe it's the other way
Around I'm not too sure
Right and wrong got together
The vision was blurred
The path was crooked but
The intentions were pure
And I count these steps
Getting closer to home
And I love each step like it was my own
And when I reach the top
Of the goal or whatever
Maybe finally they'll let me forget her
(Don't stop looking up)
Blow to the self value
He doesnt get along with powerful people
The mind is a box kept locked
Inside is the pride and the ego
And he can't find the keyhole
Compensates with alcohol and hate
And contimplates whether or not he
Wants to be awake bounce around the words
All the nouns and verbs
But better the latter then never
Doesnt work for work
Can't hold employment, can't hold a girl
But he can hold a weapon and
Keep this whole world steppin
Another angry arrogant American
One frustrated step away from where you stand
Put your hands up for PHERE or fear it'self
Or write it off as balances and cheques
Or take the sign out the window and change
It to say you want to help
And maybe we can talk him
