Forever (feat. Vic Mensa)

I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever We won't do what they tell us Pill popping just to feel better Times getting hard we try keep our head up If we die, we gon' live forever We go where they won't let us We don't do what they tell us Pill popping just to feel better If we die, we gon' live forever I said the kids gonna do what they wanna do when it gets hot out I hope they make it through summer school 'Cos they get cold-blooded when no 5-0 coming And when they come around Don't nobody know nothing It don't feel safe Cold case, love lost When the shorties got guns, call it the City of God And they ain't taught how to aim Watch they friend get killed right there in front of your face So how the fuck would you feel? And so I pop pain pills until I feel better And I'm hustling now we got that phone bill And I got me a job but no it won't cut it So I step on that work 'cos the dope will All we know is now and laters and skyscrapers Yeah it's concrete Where the kids at? Let me go speak to them But if you've never seen any mountains or the stars How you ever 'sposed to know that's the thing you should reach for? I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever We won't do what they tell us Pill popping just to feel better Times getting hard we try keep our head up If we die, we gon' live forever We won't do what they tell us Pill popping just to feel better Times getting hard we try keep our head up If we die, we gon' live forever We never die that's why my motto still alive Like Aaliyah's spirit I told you one and a million times This is a dream, the one I used to fantasize So I'm looking at me from heaven Through my grandma's eyes And I know that she be proud So you hear me screaming loud "I'm on a billboard just so you could see me now!" If she in the clouds I pour my drink on the ground So I pour it up for you, you want Henn' or a crown? Chi-Town ambulances don't come around When shorties' brains blown out You want me to dumb it down? That's why we get high roll trees and backwoods It's hard to know you can when you raised off canned goods All we know is U.S.D.A checks and Save-A-Lot Never had money so we had to save a lot So how you gonna tell the kids They capable to rewrite pop culture When all they had was pills to pop? I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever I wish I could live forever
