[Intro]
Everything remains
Everything remains, everything remains, everything remains
Ayy, ayy
[Verse 1]
Laugh now, cry never
Never mind, nice guys finish fine
I guess, forever fly
Used to be fresh but now I'm wise
Guys try to imply
Like I should optimize on lies and cries
I find it harder now to author nouns and sounds
It's like couldn't believe I was really 'bout to father a child
When all of this foul
World girls are brought up in now
All the options cloggin' and crowdin' little noggins
With products instead of knowledge
Unbalanced and it bothers nobody 'cause she fine as hell
So she whines and dines and tells
More lies, tryna find herself
I fell on my knees today to find myself
And it helps when It ain't no one around to tell the truth to
When I'm not half the god I use to be
Useful, who be?
Used to say you the truth too
Now I'm just truthful
Truthfully, it hurts
Usually worse, used to be worse
Running from comfort 'cause I wouldn't conform or convert
Now I just converse 'bout how much love hurts
And how good God is and how much I want more for my kids
'Cause life is not fair, but it does not stop there
Do what you got 'til you drop, but don't trip, my dear
'Cause God's here
Right here
[Interlude]
Yeah, here, yeah, here, uh, right here, uh, right here
Yeah
Yeah, ayy
[Verse 2]
Whatever you be on is you, nigga
Remember, whatever I be on, the good God got me on
I trod alone through the winter, jottin' home in poems
Tryna remember the warmth when the storms pass
Blue skies, sunshine my mind's forecast
It's not like I was born last week
Complete my format, my perspective gets deep
My lessons have been collectin' like blessings
The exchange rate is beautiful too
Proving that truth can override anything but love, so God bless you
A timeless life of stressless fights with lust
I try to put my life love up above you, but
God, mom, music, movies
Movin' the world with a duty to truly be something worthy of
Lavish-ass pads with cars and all types of devices
Must be nice if happiness is priceless
Right? Price my life
And y'all can have the Range, bright lights, and fame
For some change, give an exchange if your souls intact
And it's hard to beat that with a bat, most cats
Get with this, it's '08, jack
I stick with that boom-bap mind state
'96 mind flip, get money, other than that, we praise God
Sometimes, I play y'all
Never did play cards
Or video games
I was eight, tryna navigate principle aim
Multiplyin' my visual game
By my spiritual gain
Divided truth by pain
Still steerin' the plane
Like the pilots do it
Sun shinin' and the sky is blue
So high, wave, "Hi," we just ridin' through
No titles, no idols, no pride
No time to prove to you why we fly, we just do us
And we trust that you do you
That's how we was brought up to do
