Life Goes On lyrics

[Produced by Paris]

[Intro: Conesha Owens]
Ho-ah-oh
Ho-oh-ha
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-hah-ah

[Verse 1: Paris]
In the beginning, there was confrontations in these streets
Cause these police beat us - we tired of runnin', f*ck peace
Young brothers born to fail, skippin' bail, helluva start
Could it be them b*tches was hatin' cause our skin was too dark?
Handed down his sentence, he got no reason to live
A twenty-five-to-life n*gga never knowin' his kids
That's how they do it to us, it seem we caught in between
Another one, wastin' away for what he did in his teens
Life is hard, situation on these streets is critical
Everybody chasin' dough, if them ain't your folks, then here we go
If we ridin', then let's ride, do-or-die, homicide
But tell me the reason for lost lives
Could it be we all caught up in a scandalous system?
Fallin' through the cracks, blinded by the lies we given
Seen these G's on these streets bleed freely but why?
It seem too many of us born to die
But life goes on, and on situation in time
How many lost souls molded by a criminal mind?
From the Bay in California, to the streets of the east
Can't be no justice without no peace, believe
(Life goes on)
[Chorus: Conesha Owens]
No matter what they say or do
I ain't never givin' up on you
I won't doubt ya baby
Won't doubt ya baby
And no matter, I'ma keep it true
And together we gon' make it through
I'm about ya baby
Ain't livin' without ya baby

[Verse 2: Paris]
A ruthless cycle of thugs, coppers, drugs
Helicopters, blood, spitting choppers, slugs
Who could stop to love this lifestyle juveniles embracin'?
I'm lacin' adolescents with lessons, no one could beat these cases I'm chasin'
My competitors, no need for a spot
Conversation keep these cowards off my stick when I bust
Forget Versache-watchy Cartier playas, I'm still the same
But I can't condone the phony 'cause I'm prone to be me
Now what you sayin' huh? (Life goes on)
From the Atlantic to the Bay, what? (Life goes on)
To all my people gettin' paid, huh? (Life goes on)
Never forgettin' where you came from (Life goes on)
Fa' sho

[Pre-Chorus]
Now keep on strivin' and survivin'
Don't let life get down on you (That's right)
Forget these haters that betray
Mistakin' kindness for a fool (What?)
Keep your head up, don't get fed up
Keep on doin' what you do
For all true players in this game of life
You got to know the rules (True)
(But life goes on)
[Chorus: Conesha Owens]
No matter what they say or do
I ain't never givin' up on you
I won't doubt ya baby
Won't doubt ya baby
And no matter, I'ma keep it true
And together we gon' make it through
I'm about ya baby
Ain't livin' without ya baby
No matter what they say or do
I ain't never givin' up on you
I won't doubt ya baby
Won't doubt ya baby
And no matter, I'ma keep it true
And together we gon' make it through
I'm about ya baby
Ain't livin' without ya baby

[Post-Chorus: Paris]
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
[Verse 3: Paris]
Now that's one too many times, more than three had to die
Forty-five's got to spittin', six-thirty was the time
Seven years gone by, eight of us done been deceased
Nine times outta ten, somebody bleedin' in these streets
Tell me what's the reason? Trial date's the Tenth
These juveniles in wild life smile upon your death
Went from kids to killas, fun lovin' to felonies
Could it be we self-destructin' in this rush for the cheese?
Everybody in this world gone crazy
See money and murder be the measure of a man everyday
Separate from the fake, break bustas for how they livin'
Cause some takin' better care of their cars than of their kids
And it still seem we caught up in a scandalous system
Fallin' through the cracks, blinded by the lies we given
Seen these G's in these streets bleed freely, but why?
It seem too many of us born to die
(But life goes on)

[Chorus: Conesha Owens]
No matter what they say or do (Say or do)
I ain't never givin' up on you
I won't doubt ya baby (Oh-ho-ah)
Won't doubt ya baby (Oh-ho-ah-wow-ow)
And no matter, I'ma keep it true (Keep it true)
And together we gon' make it through
I'm about ya baby
Ain't livin' without ya baby
No matter what they say or do
I ain't never givin' up on you
I won't doubt ya baby
Won't doubt ya baby
And no matter, I'ma keep it true
And together we gon' make it through
I'm about ya baby
Ain't livin' without ya baby

[Post-Chorus: Paris]
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up
Don't stop, don't stop movin' on up

[Outro: Paris]
Yeah
