Keep What Ya Got - Ian Brown

Yesterday came suddenly

Tomorrow will receive

Today now you’re at the wheel

I’ll ask how does it feel

Yesterday when Heaven’s gates

I contemplate, they seem so far,

Today they ain’t so far away

And almost see my train

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

Keep what ya got, hold it, don’t stop

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

When your halo slips for good,

You’ll have to wear your hood

Could you feel the breeze of fear

On all the cynics, I’m ya mimick

All you losers, all abusers

Wasting all my precious energy

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

Keep what ya got, hold it, don’t stop

Keep what ya got, by giving it all away

Remember where you came from

Sisters who told ya on a rainy day

They said that Heaven holds a place

For all of those who pray

And if you don’t believe in my dream

Then you don’t care anyway

Nobody or nothings ever getting in your way

Even as you pray to the lord

But don’t feel you belong

No one’s gonna notice if you ever right or wrong

And if you and your next neighbour

Yeah, you don’t quite get along

No one’s gonna notice if you’re singing anyway

Those not coming in for free well they they gotta pay.

Aaah…
