Beat Goes On Lyrics

My city never sleeps

Thank god for that

Boogie down hometown

Thank god for rap

My mother raised me

Around rocks and trees

But I need the concrete

Thank god I'm back

Spending all my time

Clocking out and in

Spending all my money

Never counting it

Getting rich is what

I'm counting on

Got money on the beat

And it still goes on

And I do too

You never been where I been

You can't do what I do

I tried to give it up

But I want the top

Living on a prayer

Got to beg me to stop

But I keep on running

Got notes on my life?

Man keep 'em coming

Started high school

Looking like McLovin

But now I'm in the breakfast spot

Looking like I'm clubbing

I can't stop believing

I'm running all day

Trying to keep from freezing

But spring's coming

Then I'll thaw out all season

So if you don't know

Better start believing
