[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I remember when I was just a young buck
Me and bro shared rooms, I was on the top bunk
Nights I was woke, looking up
Picturing life above all this broke sh**
Where you can flick the lights and you don't see roaches
Hard to sleep cause I'm hearing rats roamin'
But it's not about where we at, it's bout where we goin'
And how long we gon' last, we want forever
[Hook]
(Forever ever, forever ever?)
And ever (ever ever, ever ever?)
We want forever (forever ever, forever ever?)
And ever (ever ever, ever ever?)
Tryin' to be here for a while, and never go down
And if I do it's only cause I'm helpin' n***as out
Get my n***as right, show em a better life
Take em out the streets cause them hoods ain't nice
[Verse 2]
Wise words from a decent man
Never let another person k** your plans
It be the closest people wanna cut your legs
Rather hear you doing bad than hear you stacking bread
Sound kinda like my OG
Don't wanna fight cause she's itching to put me on the streets
I be posted at a park till the sun creep
Mug on my face, I swear no one better speak
Or you all can get it
Them hoes that was laughing, they all can get it
Trying take my homies with me so we all can get it
Riding whips, but right now we piled up in the Civic
With the windows down, cause the AC trippin'
Watching out for the law because my L suspended
But it's not about where we at, it's bout where we goin'
And how long we gon' last, we want forever
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
This is what I chose
Ma said give up, I said 'This is all I know'
Should've said 'f** you' but instead I closed the door
Hopped out the window, got in the car, I gotta go
Drinking Jungle Juice while I'm flicking out these ashes
Doing 5-5, you better move if you on Ashland
Thinking like a mad man, bout to run into Sharks
Tell em' give me a #3, better give me extra sauce
Or I'mma go off
Flip these n***as then jet, I know you hear that exhaust
Back in Middle School, n***as played me like I was soft
Ran up on me beat me down until the Principal saw
That's why my anger's through the roof now, calling up my troops now
See em we gon' scrap till we see that white and sound
Trying to make a move now, planning for the sky
Cause I want this sh** forever, I won't stop unless I die
[Bridge]
Won't stop unless I die
Won't stop unless I die
Won't stop...
Young n***as on the rise
Trying to cop a chain and a ride
Then maybe the b**hes would arrive
Maybe they'd arrive...
