"Welcome To Forever" (feat. Jon Bellion) |
| [00:09.48] |
This is real life, the only one we get to live |
| [00:12.86] |
I remember being broke and thinking something gotta give |
| [00:15.37] |
This is real life, everything we do is legendary |
| [00:18.42] |
And we gon' do it to the day we in the cemetery |
| [00:21.16] |
Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming |
| [00:23.33] |
Used to feel like I was nothing, now my life has meaning |
| [00:25.97] |
Said this is real life, God damn this is real life |
| [00:29.43] |
Yeah, I've been fiending for this moment |
| [00:32.52] |
I've been dreaming 'bout this moment |
| [00:33.91] |
I guess this is how it feel to have everything you ever wanted |
| [00:36.19] |
Writing these records like a dissertation |
| [00:38.86] |
While the fans go crazy from anticipation |
| [00:41.39] |
Damn, nine years that's a lot of patiences |
| [00:44.08] |
And now I'm looking at my idols and feeling adjacent |
| [00:46.74] |
It's hell of a long way from back in the basement |
| [00:49.42] |
Looking at hip-hop tryna find my placement |
| [00:51.94] |
I bought my first pair of Jordans at 22 |
| [00:54.42] |
Same year I bought a crib too |
| [00:57.09] |
Now my face in magazines I used to flip through |
| [00:59.45] |
And my music on all the sites I used to sift through |
| [01:02.14] |
Remember meeting Nas for the first time |
| [01:03.81] |
Shook his hand and he started quoting my lines |
| [01:06.36] |
Said he a fan, God damn this is my time |
| [01:08.95] |
I'm a get it, I'm a do it till we prime time |
| [01:11.74] |
I told him every single day that I be at it |
| [01:15.31] |
In the studio recording like an addict |
| [01:18.23] |
He said that real hip-hop shit I had it |
| [01:20.58] |
Thinking to myself damn man you made Illmatic |
| [01:23.22] |
This is real life, the only one we get to live |
| [01:25.62] |
I remember being broke and thinking something gotta give |
| [01:28.52] |
This is real life, everything we do is legendary |
| [01:31.31] |
And we gon' do it to the day we in the cemetery |
| [01:33.85] |
Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming |
| [01:35.85] |
Used to feel like I was nothing, now my life has meaning |
| [01:38.65] |
Said this is real life, God damn this is real life |
| [01:42.73] |
I used wonder what it feel like |
| [01:44.78] |
Aight, I guess we back again |
| [01:47.37] |
With another verse of about how much I'm black again |
| [01:49.66] |
You don't like to blame God for my packaging |
| [01:52.16] |
Bringing up my race, don't call me a white rapper then |
| [01:54.70] |
Damn, they judging me by my skin tone |
| [01:57.30] |
Instead of my talent, man these motherfuckers been wrong |
| [01:59.74] |
But it's all good I just thought I'd address it |
| [02:02.69] |
And spell it out for people so they can finally assess it |
| [02:05.28] |
This is dedicated to anyone with a dream |
| [02:07.47] |
And a realization of what following it means |
| [02:09.82] |
Breaking the cycle and not following your genes |
| [02:12.46] |
That perfect moment when your logic intervenes |
| [02:15.01] |
And let you know that everything ain't always what it seems |
| [02:17.71] |
But if you really looking, I promise you'll find your dreams |
| [02:20.34] |
This is everything I ever wanted, half of y'all won't get it |
| [02:22.94] |
The other will probably laugh and wonder how I did it |
| [02:25.53] |
I just spit it from my mind, one word at the time |
| [02:28.33] |
Take everything I'm going through and put it in a rhyme |
| [02:30.76] |
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a lot of weight upon my shoulders |
| [02:33.97] |
But this is my therapy as I flow this |
| [02:36.21] |
Spilling out my heart, I just hope somebody notice |
| [02:38.66] |
I've been real from the start and you motherfuckers noticed |
| [02:41.05] |
Once my name elevated that's when the fame escalated |
| [02:43.88] |
But on the real, I've grown accustomed to the stares |
| [02:46.33] |
People watching every move I make like it was theirs |
| [02:48.87] |
All up in my business, and even in my personal affairs |
| [02:51.63] |
Now, I know I talk a lot of game, but I ain't trynna sell you |
| [02:54.36] |
Cause honestly, I could show you better than I could tell you |
| [02:56.90] |
And even though there's been moments when everything have fell through |
| [02:59.86] |
We kept it moving, assuming even the greatest fail too |
| [03:02.31] |
I swear this business shit is do or die |
| [03:04.84] |
I never contemplated suicide, I'm too alive |
| [03:07.49] |
In front of thousands, but I'm talking like it's you and I And every day |
| [03:10.59] |
This is real life, the only one we get to live |
| [03:14.45] |
I remember being broke and thinking something gotta give |
| [03:18.31] |
This is real life, everything we do is legendary |
| [03:21.10] |
And we gon' do it to the day we in the cemetery |
| [03:23.79] |
Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming |
| [03:26.14] |
Used to feel like I was nothing, now my life has meaning |
| [03:28.49] |
Said this is real life, God damn this is real life |
| [03:34.03] |
Everything I seen, made me everything I am |
| [03:38.32] |
Everything I do, I'm a man behind mine |
| [03:57.19] |
Said, welcome to forever |
| [04:02.77] |
Welcome to forever |
| [04:09.01] |
Welcome to... forever... |
| [04:13.95] |
