[Intro: Erykah Badu Sample of On & On]
Oh my, I'm feeling high
My moneys gone, I'm all alone
The world keeps turning
Oh what a day, what a day, what a day
Peace and blessings manifest with every lesson learned
If your knowledge were your wealth then it would be well earned
If we were made in his image then call us by our names
Most intellects do not believe in God but they fear us just the same
[Hook: Erykah Badu Sample Continued]
Oh on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
On and on and on and on
All night till the break of dawn
I go on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
Oh on and on and on and on
Goddammit I'mma sing my song
[Verse 1: Ca**]
Ay
Life change but I feel the same
My Dad's son, shining the open rain
With my hands up on window I can feel the pain
While I listen to word versions of nova cane
Life is good, time is cash
And lately that's been something that I'm spending fast
Reminiscing, everything but distant from the past
Those in it, they the reasons I forever last
Got grown now I'm talking 'bout these new things
Low funds got me writing up them new schemes
They sleeping while we living out the same dreams
Come close and I could push you on my mood swings
Up and down, down and up
Going on and on
How you move, when you living like a rolling stone
Think deep, under earth where my mind goes
I play it out and then I wonder where the time goes
Real
[Hook]
Oh on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
On and on and on and on
All night till the break of dawn
I go on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
Oh on and on and on and on
Goddammit I'mma sing my song
[Verse 2: Connor Ca**idy]
No matter what it is, tryna' get it over night
Dealing with a crowd that won't settle for a sober night
When it comes to style, tell em' not to over bite
Pick my fruits of labor while they still are ripe
Check, I got
Nothing but respect for all those staying who you are
And thus-far
I've met some people that's realer then life
Comfy in their own skin
The world asking what the feelings like
Cool, and care less about the accolades
Rather celebrate the lives of the pa**ed-away
On that, rest in peace to my Uncle Hayes
Want you to know that I been thinking 'bout you day to day
I can't forget, I never will
I know that there's a part of you that's with me still
Forever on, until forever's gone
With you in my heart, I'm forever strong
[Outro: Ca**]
It goes on
If I've learned one thing
Fam first
Not up for discussion
Yup
You know, my uncle Hayes
He used to this trick when I'd meet up with him after church
And he'd
He'd pull this quarter out of my ear, from no where
It was beautiful
Yup
It's weird thinking about it, too
Can't forget, can't forget
Not once
Yup
I believe
Yup
