Forever

Miss Nina Simone, Jimmy Jones
Missy Elliot musically were my relatives
Never forget my Andre
Papi mi casa es su casa, baby I made an entrée
Maybe I make your mom's plate
Maybe we not gon' sleep tonight
In the night you and I laugh about how you Gemini
Already fried the chicken but leftovers was my inner thigh
Nah I'm lying, I'm just playing
You can read this book with me
I'm trying to re-imagine abracadabra for poverty
Like poof I made it disappear
Proof I'm made of happiness
Everything is everything but I still haven't paid my rent
Ugly is ugly so molly makes me joyful now
When I get down, I'm already up
Molly the water, I keep the drink in the cup
My druggy is druggy, we just some kids out of luck
Ooooh they ain't tryna' see me shine my shine
A bullet on my time my time
Fuck it, I'll live forever now

They ain't tryna' to see me shine, shine
Bullet on my time time
But fuck it, I'll live forever
They ain't trying to see us shine shine
Bullet on our time time
But fuck it, we'll live forever

Forever in a day
Follow in the rain
You know that we live forever
How long will it take
To marry the sunset
If it ain't yours yet forever?

I sold my name for seven bags of skittles
On Sunny Set Boulevard
Please tell me God is rainbow pretty mystery and fully charged
Nobody understands my songs
Aloe vera sentences to heals the scars
Of rental cars to Malibu to Shangri-La
Ooh, my cigarette burning, my momma be calling
She worry about me, her girl alcoholic
And I can take a trip to L.A.
And I can lose myself inside myself
I hope the Lord forgive me now
Why I still be thrifting? Accustomed to wearing hand-me-downs
Why my Cinderella a cinderblock for my family now?
I can't build no mansion on top of these shaggy bones
I left my home mama, the road forgive me
There she go again
Her dark consumerism assimilated in him
Cash the new gospel
Occupational sin, just walked out of the church house
With happy all in my pocket, a little something to spend

They ain't tryna' to see me shine shine
Bullet on my time time
But fuck it, I'll live forever
They ain't trying to see us shine shine
Bullet on our time time
But fuck it, we'll live forever

Forever in a day
Follow in the rain
You know that we live forever
How long will it take
To marry the sunset
If it ain't yours yet forever?

We gon' live forever like Aaliyah
Look how they did Rekia
Honestly I'm just happy I can be here
Hopin' I don't offend all my peers
When I say that ass is a mouthful like kujichagulia
Following bright ideas 'cause I'm victim to colorism
They flood the prison, no difference hanging from trees
When they gon' leave the system I notice we still ain't free
In this club trying to ban me 'cause my white tee
I mean like high key
I was chosen to fight in a pair of Mikes
Over polite holding a knife
They hold my life in low regards hoping I'm hopeless
But I've been in love for so long like Janet Jackson poems
I know I'm terrible
But I'm focused like a variable
Emitting pheromones so I don't got to bear it alone
Nina Simone biopic made me swear at my home
Gotta call someone so I can tell them on my telephone

They ain't tryna' to see me shine shine
Bullet on my time time
But fuck it, I'll live forever
They ain't trying to see us shine shine
Bullet on our time time
But fuck it, we'll live forever

Forever in a day
Follow in the rain
You know that we live forever
How long will it take
To marry the sunset
If it ain't yours yet forever?
