Feels like it was just yesterday
Playing games at the sunny beach
My lead role played Jay Gatsby
I had greed for the green light
Everything I owned fancy
Throwing parties at my west egg mansion
But you won't catch me drinking champagne or dancing
Cause I'm caught up
Thinking about that girl I had a chance with
Hoping one day she'll be in attendance
Shes the love of my life im not looking for a friendship
Don't care if mr.buchanan gets offended
Cause once I have daisy's attention his marriage is ending
Plus the old sport dosen't know we have history
Got a weird feeling that she misses me if only she would visit me
Then I'd make her my mrs. I heard tom cheats on her with a mistress
How would daisy feel about myrtle caught in his inner circle?
Tom doesn't even love her, this is picture perfect
Love at last I told her the wait was worth it
Across the lake i can see the green light burning
Brighter and brighter and I feel
Theres a void in my heart that only daisy can fill
[Sample interlude]
Foreal, story of my life more or less
Feel like f.scott wrote my story, I confess
Chasing girls has often caught me in a mess
Alot of drama no success only got me more stressed
Now I'm more focused, with more pa**ion thats more potent
Playing games east coast by the ocean, now I'm coasting
Headed home on the highway, empty pa**enger
Pulling up in my driveway, been seeing the signs for a long time but I guess I'm late
I was caught up in traffic, red and yellow stop and goes
Thought I was going places but nowhere close
Now I'm playing my role, headed to my destination paying my tolls
I guess you could say God gave me the green light
This time around the green dont symbolize greed
It symbolizes GO, Godspeed
