Keep the Change
Caskey Lyrics

Yeah I go again, I back out
I tend to start things but then back down and give up easily.

I drive way on Fridays I blackout
On Friday nights, I often go out and get drunk to forget my struggles.

Too many bars I know they only talk about my scars
The people I hang out with only care about my past mistakes and flaws.

But I hardly ever see the pain when I'm riding in these cars
When I'm out driving around with my friends, I try to ignore the emotional pain I'm feeling.

I'm in the backseater
I'm not in control of my own life, just going along with what others decide for me.

15 feet up my ambition they feed up
I have high hopes and ambitions for myself, but sometimes lose sight of them due to others influencing me.

Somebody gotta keep me middle headed
I need someone to keep me level-headed and focused on my goals.

Eyes beat up forever
I have been through a lot of emotional pain and it's affected me deeply.

Everything while I read up
I try to stay informed and knowledgeable to better myself and my situation.

I wonder what my hometown
I'm curious about what my hometown thinks of me and my music.

Your feds hate me when they tell me to invest my time
Even when people in authority tell me to focus on my music career, I still feel like they don't support me.

And all these hoes they just hoes
I don't trust anyone who seems to be after me only for my fame or wealth.

I've seen the money a million time for
I've had money before but still feel unfulfilled and unhappy.

And they try to put me in blindfolded
People try to hinder my vision and make me unaware of what's truly happening around me.

And I'm trying to pray light
I'm trying to stay positive despite the struggles I face.

Lights on
I want the truth and light to be revealed.

Me I'm trying to bring the lights on
I want to shine a light on the truth and what's really going on in the music industry.

And why they always giving me advice
People always seem to have an opinion on what I should do with my career.

You know like
People give me advice but don't really understand my situation.

The shit I'm doing like
People don't understand the work and struggles I have to face to succeed.

Like I don't know, fuck'em
I know what I need to do and don't need anyone else's opinion.

Everybody got they two sift for me
Everyone has an opinion or criticism regarding my life and career.

But they never wanna do shit for me
Despite the opinions, no one is willing to actually help me out.

I could keep your change
I don't care about the money or fame, I just want to live my life.

Coming up from seeing form a girl human being
I came from a vulnerable place, and have grown to become a successful and accomplished human being.

An opportunity to make keys that's a blessing
Having the opportunity to make music and live my dream is a blessing.

All they saying on me that's depressing like
People's negative comments about me can be discouraging and depressing.

The fuck did I do to deserve a...
I don't deserve the negative things people say about me.

My window, somebody riddle me that
I'm confused and don't understand why certain things happen to me.

Lately I roll around nigger with this trap
I'm surrounded by people who are involved in illegal activities, but I don't participate.

Somebody go... pull up the gap another stone
I need protection from potential danger.

My homies be like what for man?
My friends are confused about my need for protection and worry about my choices.

Shit! Hope my funeral more loud than usual
I hope that when I die, people will celebrate my life and legacy rather than just being mournful.

You could feel the energy my soul brain
My music is powerful and comes from my soul and mind.

It's like get on every track with the soul train
I pour my heart and soul into every track I create.

Nowadays they don't wanna hear you rap without the gold chain
People only seem to care about the image and material possessions of rappers rather than their talent and skill.

How to give them a taste of my story
I want to share my personal story and experiences through my music.

Man these last words
These are my final thoughts and reflections on my life and career.

Y'all can't feel doubt then the fuck you're talking for?
If you can't relate to my struggles and doubts, then why are you even commenting on my life or career?
