《Keeps Me Alive》歌词

[00:00:00] Keeps Me Alive - Yelawolf (亚拉狼)/Wynonna Judd

[00:00:01] Written by：Michael Atha/Wynonna Judd

[00:00:14] Way back in Alabama where the dirt roads cut through the woods

[00:00:17] And when it rains you can smell the steam off the grass

[00:00:19] Even dew on the hood of my paw paw's 1985 Chevrolet Silverado

[00:00:23] I must have been about six

[00:00:25] Life was so easy back in the sticks

[00:00:27] 16 year old mother fought for the life she wanted for her son

[00:00:31] Lookin' for love in the world of rock and roll is where it begun

[00:00:34] It was Alabama ted Nugent

[00:00:36] Alice cooper randy Travis

[00:00:38] Aerosmith kept my step daddy on the road

[00:00:40] And life it was madness

[00:00:42] Coc*ine and alcohol filled up the house party to be frank

[00:00:44] It wasn't long before I tried it myself and then started to drink

[00:00:48] School became boring and doing my homework became rollin' joints

[00:00:51] Now I'm sixteen like my mama was when she had a little boy

[00:00:55] Can't imagine that now as I look back

[00:00:57] 'Cause I got three kids of my own

[00:00:59] And I respect what she went through to pay for food and clothes

[00:01:01] And a home

[00:01:03] 'Cause it ain't what she did it's what she didn't do for me

[00:01:05] That brought me to this moment

[00:01:07] And made me who I am on this recording

[00:01:09] This is my story

[00:01:12] This is my glory

[00:01:16] This is what keeps me alive

[00:01:23] This is me flying

[00:01:26] This is me trying

[00:01:30] This is what keeps me alive

[00:01:37] 20 years old in the streets and I'm rollin' with gangsters now

[00:01:40] Hip hop is takin' over me my language my clothes my lifestyle

[00:01:44] Antioch Tennessee put me through the school of hard knocks

[00:01:47] And I carry that attitude with me to this day more or not

[00:01:51] And I'm young and hot headed

[00:01:53] Always running from police and skateboardin'

[00:01:55] Graffiti loiterin' I sorta got my peace from the chaos

[00:01:58] Was no mother may I's surrounded by have nots

[00:02:02] And maybe someday I's well

[00:02:04] I was against the grain even when I was growin' wheat

[00:02:07] Got back into rock and roll and then got into poetry

[00:02:10] Started expressin' everything I could through the medium of pen and pad

[00:02:14] Playin' instrumentals off a tape and then over dubbin' what I had

[00:02:18] It was everything because I had nothin'

[00:02:21] And man that was alright 'cause now I had somethin'

[00:02:24] Little did I know that would be the hardest thing to do

[00:02:27] God ever put before me

[00:02:28] So I took a look at what I've been through

[00:02:31] And I made it my glory and this is

[00:02:32] This is my story

[00:02:35] This is my glory

[00:02:39] This is what keeps me alive

[00:02:46] This is me flying

[00:02:49] This is me trying

[00:02:53] This is what keeps me alive

[00:03:00] It's a 2 AM bus 'craw from me at the parkin' lot of wall mart

[00:03:03] Leavin' Nashville Tennessee for a nationwide tour

[00:03:06] My bags are all packed and I'm loadin' my truck to go meet the crew

[00:03:10] And I'm excited to get on the road already one foot out the door

[00:03:13] Turn around and it's my daughter she's cryin'

[00:03:16] 'Cause daddy is leavin'

[00:03:17] Knows that I'll be gone for months

[00:03:18] And it hurts and I hate to see it

[00:03:21] Kneel down and tell her look baby I promise I'll call you everyday

[00:03:24] And daddy will send you a present from everywhere that we go play

[00:03:27] But that's not enough and it's breakin' my heart in two

[00:03:30] Just knowin' I can't stay not even to see it through

[00:03:34] And that I can't tuck her in to say goodbye with a grin

[00:03:37] Now she's bein' left behind this is me all over again man

[00:03:41] I picked her up in my arms and held her tight

[00:03:43] And said hey you know what daddy used to be just like you

[00:03:46] When I would walk up to the bus

[00:03:48] And I'd do anything in the world for you so chase your dreams

[00:03:51] One day you'll use everything you've been through to be anything baby girl

[00:03:55] This is my story

[00:03:58] This is my glory

[00:04:02] This is what keeps me alive

[00:04:09] This is me flying

[00:04:12] This is me trying

[00:04:16] This is what keeps me alive
