[Lyric] Keep My Spirit Alive Keedron Bryant Demo (Kanye West)

[Intro: Keedron Bryant]
Ooh, ooh
Keep my spirit alive
Keep my spirit alive, alive

[Chorus: Keedron Bryant & 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 nigga, 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 hundrеd in a Demon (In a Demon, skrrt)
I'm the illеst nigga 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
[Chorus: Keedron Bryant & Kanye West]
I got more than enough
I can face the world with the Lord on my side
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 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: Keedron Bryant]
Keep my spirit alive
Keep my spirit alive, alive
More than enough
You can take it all, but the Lord on my side

[Verse 3: Kanye West & Keedron Bryant]
Well, between a mix of bad schools with the fast food (The spirit won't die, I—)
Bad had tools and a bad mood
If you don't turn to a lil' Gotti, they gon' drain all the strength in your lil' body (Oh, oh, oh, my life, yeah)
They turned me into a lil' Gotti, uh, yeah (Is in His hands, so I don't stress, I pray and strategize, Lord have mercy)
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
M.I.B., I told L.V. 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: Keedron Bryant]
More than enough
You can take it all, but the Lord on my side

[Verse 4: Kanye West, Royce da 5'9", & Keedron Bryant]
You're more concerned about raising your next round than raising your next child (The spirit won't die)
Here’s the exodus on 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 about it (I mean)
The best decision on your worst mistake (The spirit won't die)
Every day’s a song, it only takes the hook to break, you know
Headed back to Cody and the first thing's smokin'
I'ma get a room, it's the first thing open, brr—yeah
Step into the sanctuary (The spirit won't die)
You gon' thank me so much, I had to start a thank-tuary
Tell the assassins I escaped from Calabasas
Where they wanna turn my wife to Jackie Jo Jackson
Jackie Robinson, we had that (The spirit won't die)
When 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 (The spirit won't die)
She said "You in the studio with who? I'ma hurt you"
How I'm forty-two and you got a curfew?
How nerves 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 (Lord on my side, The spirit won’t die)
[Chorus: Keedron Bryant]
More than enough
I can face the world with the Lord on my side

[Verse 5: Kanye West, Royce da 5'9", & Keedron Bryant]
My puffer so puffy, you would've thought it was Sean John (The spirit won't die, I—)
Over the 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 Johns?
Summer basketball camp down in Maryland
Used to play it with the Terrapins (Lord, have mercy)
Used to play it with the Taliban
How the police officer will view a fellow African
That DC crossover had me feelin' arrogant
But I got scopophobia, don't stare at him
My favorite intern worked somewhere else for more cheese
But I can't cry over spilled milk employees (The spirit won’t die)
Satan has Helen Keller’d the people
Until we all agree he a liar, we ain't equal
Brought souls to HOV, now bring the souls to JAY-Hovah (The spirit won’t die)
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 ya' call sober
I followed in the word and did what the Lord told us (The spirit won’t die)
Now I’ve got the culture back on my shoulders (Lord, have mercy)

[Chorus: Keedron Bryant & Kanye West]
I can face the world with 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)
