Conway the Machine
Keep My Spirit Alive (OBLCR)
[Intro: KayCyy]
Ooh, ooh
Keep my spirit alive
Keep my spirit alive, alive

[Chorus: KayCyy & Kanye West]
More than enough
You can take it all, but the Lord on my side
The spirit won't die, I-
Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah
Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize
Lord have mercy

[Verse 1: Westside Gunn]
Yo
Flushed the work just in time and they raided, thank God (Thank God)
Screamin' through the GT roof like n***a, we done made it, thank God (Thank God)
Hundred-round drum didn't jam when my shooter tried to spray it, thank God (Thank God)
Couple thousand grams, got two thousand grands when we waited, thank God (Thank God)
I was facin' fifteen and I beat it (And I beat it)
Just spent about twenty up at Neimans (Up at Neimans)
Did two hundred in a Demon (In a Demon, skrrt)
I'm the illest n***a and I mean it (And I mean it)
My homie droppin' bodies for no reason (Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)
Now his kids see him on the weekends (Ah)
Got the baking soda for the remix (Remix)
Millionaires on, I can see it (I can see it)
[Chorus: KayCyy]
Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah
Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize

[Verse 2: Conway the Machine]
Yeah, don't hate me, 'cause my heart is full of love
No weapon formed against me 'cause I'm covered in the blood
Layin' in the hospital when I got shot, fam
Mama prayed for me, said she left it in God's hands, yeah
So I'ma leave it in God's hands
Everything I'm doin' now is God's plan
Doctor said I wouldn't walk no more, now I stand
Then I ran, here I am, Machine

[Chorus: Kanye West & KayCyy]
Keep my spirit alive
We must now realise the promise of America by trusting God (Keep my spirit alive, alive)
Unifying our vision, and building the future, know what I mean?
More than enough
You can take it all but the Lord on my side
Well, between a mix of bad schools with the fast food
Bad had tools and a bad mood (The spirit won't die, I—)
Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah
If you don't turn to a lil' Gotti, they gon' drain all the strength in your lil' body (Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize)
They turned me into a lil' Gotti, uh, yeah (Lord on my side)
[Verse 3: Kanye West & Dem Jointz]
Not Wakanda but Wakanda is kinda like what we 'bout to make
And who gon' make it? Kan', duh
Who the squad? Donda
Who the mom? Donda
Who can see? Don, duh, get Don C
MIB, I told LV like Farrakhan told me
You can take the V, it still won't cure the disease (My life, yeah)
Uh, still won't cure the disease, still won't cure—, yeah

[Chorus: KayCyy]
More than enough (Spirit won’t die)
You can take it all, but the Lord on my side

[Verse 4: Kanye West & Dem Jointz]
You're more concerned about raising your next round than raising your next child (Spirit won’t die)
Here’s the exodus from the one you exiled
We won't panic in a pandemic, we can stand in it
Believe in the word, know the spirit is transcendent
People who stress you out, my vision clear without it (Spirit won’t die)
But it's y'all, I swear I’m sorry to hear about it
I'm not sorry it happened
I'm just sorry to hear—
I'm either the best decision or your worst mistake (Spirit won’t die)
Every day’s a song, it only takes a hook to break, you know
Headed back to Cody on the first thing smokin'
I'ma get a room at the first thing open, brrrah
Step into the sanctuary (Spirit won't die)
You gon' thank me so much, I'd have to start a thank-tuary
Tell the assassins I escaped from Calabasas
Where they wanna turn my wife to Jackie Joe Jackson
Jackie Robinson, we at bat (Spirit won’t die)
Win the World Cup Series and that’s just us practicin', but—
Who needs practice? I don't do rehearsals
And I don't do commercials, 'cause they too commercial
Give it all to God and let Jesus reimburse you
She said "You in the studio with who? I'ma hurt you"
How I'm forty-two and you got a curfew?
How numbers dictate how they gon' curve you?
Quiet all the cordialness
We walk in God's spiritual ordinance
We know the Blacks, the orphans refused to be runaways
Rebel, renegade, must stay paid
(Spirit won’t die)
[Chorus: KayCyy]
More than enough
I can face the world with the Lord on my side
Spirit won’t die

[Verse 5: Kanye West & Dem Jointz]
My puffer so puffy, you thought it was Sean John (Spirit won’t die)
Over a vintage suit my dad wore to my mom's prom
Go home to the wifey to avoid the rom-coms
How you break the net and go to sleep in mom jeans?
Summer basketball camp down in Maryland
Used to play with the Terrapins
Used to play with the Taliban
How the police officer abuse a fellow African?
That DC crossover had me feelin' arrogant (Spirit won’t die)
But I got scopophobia, don't stare at him
Favorite intern worked somewhere else for more cheese
But I can't cry over spilled milk employees
Backup, backup, backup, this the main event
I saw Cassie' trainer, and my girl ain’t had a male trainer since
I need an estate plan with an escape plan
Just in case I’m ambushed by Mr. Fake Tan
You are an example of someone who ain't prayin' (Spirit won’t die)
You a sinner, all orange like a fake tan
Satan has Helen Keller'd the people
Until we all agree he a liar, we ain’t equal
Brought soul to Hov, now bring the souls to Jehovah
Raised in the cold, thank God I'm bipolar
I wouldn't do a doc on Mike, I'm not Oprah
Drenched in the blood, I'm not what 'cha call sober
I followed in the word and did what the Lord told us
Now I've got the culture back on my shoulders

[Chorus: KayCyy]
Ooh, ooh
Keep my spirit alive
Keep my spirit alive, alive
More than enough
I can face the world with the Lord on my side
The spirit won't die, die
Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah
Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize
