Calling

Keep on calling
I used to be up on the corner all day
Trying to think about what's gonna get me out there

I used to be up on the corner all day
Tryin to figure out what's gonna get me out there
Dope dealing and hugging the block
I done found out ain't gonna get me nowhere
Used to keep a nine milli for protection
Then the voice came down from the sky and said
Akon use your head

I had to re-evaluate my thoughts and think about what got me this far, (this far)
Had to keep a strong faith and believing, know one day I'd be a star (a star)
But I knew that it wouldn't come easy (come easy)
Seen a whole lotta hate and believe me (believe me)
Despite all the bullshit we had to still work hard
To get to where we are

So when you hear them calling out akon
Let them keep on calling
When you hear the world calling out p-money
Let them keep on calling
Cause we went through hell and back to get here, so keep on calling
Let me hear you now, let me hear you now
Let me hear you just keep on calling

When your heart beats strong you won't ever know
I keep on calling, I keep on calling, I keep on calling
Keep, keep, keep on calling on!

But it's harder when you came from the hood
And all I had to do is put my mind into it
When all I had to do was put my mind to it, and realise that it was all good (it was all good)
Cause once I got rid of what held me down, best believe I won't be turning back
I had to keep on moving and to keep on grooving right here on this p-money track
And so

So when you hear them calling out akon
Let them keep on calling
When you hear the world calling out p-money
Let them keep on calling
Cause we went through hell and back to get here, so keep on calling
Let me hear you now, let me hear you now
Let me hear you just keep on callin

Keep on calling, keep on calling, just keep on calling, keep on calling
Just keep on calling, keep on calling, just keep on calling, keep on calling

When your heart beats strong you won't ever know
I keep on calling, I keep on calling, I keep on calling
Keep, keep, keep on calling on!

Keep on calling, keep on calling, just keep on calling, keep on calling
Just keep on calling, keep on calling, just keep on calling, keep on calling

Put your hands up if you feel the same
Put your hands up when you hear my name
Stand up if you're ready for the change
You gotta keep, keep, keep calling out loud!
