Song Lyrics

Say you wanna live forever, huh?
I mean, for real for real?
I mean
You really wanna live forever?
Shit, let's, see

I put the foreground to life with my vision board
Background drowning out from sirens and white noise
Rhythm fairly faded
Still I caught it and kept my poise
It's not to be debated, either be great or be destroyed
F*ck your conversation
If it's basic, we keep it coy
Was fuckin' off of basic instincts
Feelings premature
Shaft made of gold
So just imagine what's at my core
Like if you got to know me
You would know I'm a paramour
Just looking for
Inamorata, a rider, a woman
My generation product of narcotics for numbing
It's fathers early retired
Tired mamas becoming daddies
It's gun violence, your son dyin' for nothin'
And your daughters be suckin' dick
'Fore they even get they first kiss
And nobody catchin' the hint
She ain't cryin' for nothin', I'm sayin'
I mean she gotta be cryin' for somethin', I'm sayin'
I mean she gotta be, we rob society
Dreams of ghetto ballin' and callin'
Iso' regardless of what court I'm in
Point out the judge for bearing grudge to my melanin
Point blank, period, the shit's irrelevant
Done playing humble, I'm arrogant, I'm better than it, ay
Act like you know a nigga gifted
You never found a broken branch from underneath my Christmas
With all the woulds on the wishlist, Santa must've missed it
And niggas never would, 'cause I'm different

Oh, don't you wanna live forever?
(Don't you wanna live forever?)
'Cause we can live forever together
(We can live forever together)
Only if you (you)
Really wanna live forever
(Live forever)
But we can live forever together
(Forever together)
Just come fly with me

Strictly for the love of the music
I got involved and evolved
It don't matter where I'm from 'cause my skin is my logo
These cops tryna lock me up or kill me with a four-four
Ain't no justice in the system, 'specially for another nigga
'Specially on your second strike
And when that third one come quicker
'Specially when he dreams bigger
And he know he can't switch up
Though his people might switch up
Only way it's gettin' clearer is by lookin' in the mirror

But yo, even you would think I was odd
If I told you that we was Gods
But a conversation with Taj
And he clearly would just oblige
You decide, 'cause what really matters is what's inside
I just look 'em straight in they eyes
And I can see spiritual smiles
They visions, they tell us lies
We are not to be itemized
We are not to be idolized
See the body is a disguise
I'ma always fly, I promise to never die
Forever I will be immortalized, what's up?

Oh, don't you wanna live forever?
(Don't you wanna live forever?)
'Cause we can live forever together
(We can live forever together)
Only if you (you)
Really wanna live forever
(Live forever)
But we can live forever together
(Forever together)
Just come fly with me

Blood of a thousand hearts coursing through our veins
This black pride, don't shuck and jive to entertain
Soul of a lion
Suited to triumph all of our days and reign
Like a drop of freedom fallin' on slaves
We shall remain the people's champion
Glorifying the Pantheon
Mlk with an AK, AKA Malcolm X-cellence
Bulletproofing my melanin
Stepping through shadow valley of death
No weapon that's formed can harm me, you uninformed
I live in harmony, BJ givin' us harmonies
F*ck your authority, comin' from a minority
Speakin' for the majority, speaking to you
Speakin' the truth the first priority, f*ck what you do?
Strap up your boots and move accordingly, it's up to you
Look in the mirror and look ahead
You see a leader instead
If not, then you been misled
If not then I know the way
Stay the course, we ain't far away

Oh, don't you wanna live forever?
(Don't you wanna live forever?)
'Cause we can live forever together
(We can live forever together)
Only if you (you)
Really wanna live forever
(Live forever)
But we can live forever together
(Forever together)
Just come fly with me

Just come fly with me
Just come fly with me
Just come fly with me
