Lyrics

[Intro – Spoken / Reflective]
Yeah… (pause)
If you ain’t never been down in Dega, you wouldn’t understand.
One road in, one road out — middle of Alabama, man.
Wasn’t nothin’ to do but dream, hoop, love… and get in a lil trouble.
But somehow, that small campus… made a whole lotta men.
First off, give thanks to Savery and Tarrant (uh),
Two brothers built a school, turned struggle to balance.
Eighteen sixty-seven, that’s legacy brick,
One of the oldest in the game, but they barely mention this. (yeah)
We was broke, but rich in time,
Nights bored out our minds, still found somethin’ to find. (facts)
Best time of my life, met my first wife,
Didn’t know love could bloom inside that dorm life. (real talk)
Upper lounge — I was spinnin’ them joints,
Pretty boy before Kappa, still had to prove a point. (Yo Nupe)
Fights on the yard, but it’s all in the name,
We laughed, we bled, but the bond never changed.
[Hook 1 – soulful / laid-back]
---
---
Talladega College, Tornado blood in my veins (my veins),
Didn’t graduate with honors, but I walked with my name. (that’s real)
From the yard to the hallways, stories engraved,
If you was there — you remember them days. (uh-huh, them days)
---
[Verse 2]
AKA’s skee-weein’ all over the yard, (whoo)
Delta’s on the quad, yeah, they play they part.
Other frats did they thing, we let ’em breathe,
But when the Kappas hit the scene — you could feel that heat. (YO YO YOO)
Walks to the corner store, chips and a Faygo,
Booties bouncin’ in front of me, I ain’t look away though. (nah)
Tucker yellin’ “Get up boy!” — I took flight,
Forty-five vert, dunkin’ outta pure spite. (bounce!)
Late nights, ramen with cheese — we called that steak,
Broke meals with rich dreams, that’s how kings get made. (yeah)
Underachievers, still dream believers,
Talkin’ league numbers like we was next season. (whoo)
Man… sometimes I sit back and think about it all.
Like — we ain’t have money, we ain’t have plans,
But we had each other.
Them late-night laughs in Ish, that Ramen on paper plates…
Those were the lessons that stuck.
You can’t buy that kind of growth, nah.
That was family… that was Dega.
Defrost hallway, yeah, I had that sauce, (I had that)
Didn’t need designer, just my soul and my thoughts. (uh)
Creepin’ through Derricotte, movin’ like ghosts,
Crawford nights, yeah, we was doin’ the most. (we was wildin’)
Commencement day, Bill Cosby on stage,
But the real lessons came from the homies I made. (yeah they did)
Swayne, Savery, Foster — them names got weight,
That campus raised me, molded my fate. (word)
From boredom to brotherhood, fights to faith,
We found ourselves in them Talladega days. (uh)
Didn’t walk with honors, but I walked with pride,
Still Tornado strong till the day I die. (real talk)
---
[Hook 2]
Talladega College, Tornado blood in my veins,
Didn’t graduate with honors, but I walked with my name. (yeah)
From the quad to the dorms, them memories stay,
If you was there — you remember them days.
(choir: “Talladega… forever… forever…”)
---
[Outro]
Yeah… that was more than a school, man.
That was home.
You don’t realize it when you there — you think you just tryin’ to pass classes,
Just tryin’ to make it out.
But years later…
You look back — and see that little red-brick campus
Made you who you are.
Talladega forever.
