Forever Feel

[Verse 1] I grew up with some brothers, we'd always talk about gettin' the money One way or another, then split it up with each other We were the shit back then, it would never change, right? One of us would get a break and we'd get everything, right? Not so fast, time passed and we skated by Weekdays, skipped class, weekends, faded Wow, people got jobs, got bread, got graded high I was rappin' in a city no rapper had made it out I decided I'mma do it, took a year went MIA Music started doing numbers, I was seeing better days We were hitting milestones quicker than expected My team was killing it, you couldn't accept it Why though? You'd always acted like we'd hit the lotto I was looking like the ticket, you had too much pride to follow I tried to tell you this was everything we'd hoped for I wasn't gonna beg you so I had to close the door [Hook] You coulda made it with me, we coulda had it all I let you take your time, I swear I waited for y'all You never got it though, maybe you never will Now it's time for me to go and see how forever feel It's real now, I'mma be a big deal now Same vision but the view is looking surreal now Nobody left behind, you chose to stay You can hide the past but it never goes away [Verse 2] You were busy living, I was on a mission Couple times I tried to talk, you acted like you listened Then it came time to act, you always came up missing Not really surprised, though I was never one to get the love from other suckers I know All I did is fuck around, become the hardest act to follow in my city Kicking dudes up off the stage like its Apollo in my city Couple years of disrespect got me hollow in my city But that's only for a few, you gotta think it's probably you Ahh damn, you prolly thought I wouldn't break through, huh man? Now everyday you look more and more like a fan I never understood the hate but I hate it Now even when I get love I feel like it's late, we so underrated I'm tryna beat the system when nobody thinks you can Until you do it, then they listen Then they come around when they ain't got no pot to piss in And they see you winning off of shit you did for kicks in the beginning They don't see behind the scenes, they ignore you until they see you living dreams Man you saw me everyday, guess you ain't see anything, damn [Hook] [Verse 3] I guess it is what it is, my motivation is this To make 'em hear me till the ignorance is piss Like when all your friends came to the house You thought you were the man Until you heard they all got my name in they're mouth It's coming full circle for me Now I'm gone but you can't escape me I've been fast-laning on 'em with no belt for the safety I'm so made for this shit, I swear I slaved for this shit Mention me with legends or I won't be okay with this shit 'Cuz I lost it all for the chase, no guarantee I'mma make it But this is where they separate real from the ones that fake it So adios to my quote-on-quote competition, I'm moving up Talkin' about your hopes and dreams but you don't do enough Say you'd kill for my spot, word? Would you die for it? Yeah? That's a flat lie Me? I'd flatline for it Don't be surprised if I don't recognize you when you come to me Telling me you finally opened your eyes By then I'll be long gone, you could have made it with me Yeah, by then I'll be long gone, you could have made it with me Now you're just the words to a song
