Forever Begins |
| Victory won, in a world of Henessey and guns |
| Too young for the marches but I remember these drums |
| The stark reality of wars and battles |
| We fought for ours, caught in ghetto tragedy |
| I talk to my aunt named Mattie Lee |
| And recognize the importance of family |
| Hand me a joint, good music, and room to breathe |
| Those that doubt Com' will soon believe |
| Can’t judge the weave, my lady had one |
| I’m more like a fool for soul and passion |
| The price of gas rises, street life is pumpin' fast, lives is |
| I watched Crash and realize that we all survivors |
| No religion or race could ever describe us |
| My guys do dirt, move dirt, but never really talk about it |
| Forever begins just because I thought about it |
| Living once again |
| We live |
| Then you’re gone |
| Living once again |
| We live |
| Then you’re gone |
| Living once again |
| We live |
| Then you’re gone |
| Living once again |
| We live |
| Then you’re gone |
| Ashes and snowfalls |
| I wonder when the roll call for heaven gon' come |
| Forever gon' come |
| It’s a cold world and I can never go numb |
| Look fear in the eyes, say I never gon' run |
| Sooner then later, I know the cheddar gon' come |
| For now I write the world letters to better the young |
| On tree by jury, together we hung |
| Now we let our chains hang and gang bang to maintain |
| 'Ghanistan goin' through the same thing |
| It trickles down, at each other we aim pain |
| I shoot for stars, peace and exclusive cars |
| Through the ride I learned to earn hard |
| Watch gangstas turn God in the midst of war |
| No matter how much I elevate, I kiss the floor |
| It was in the wind when she said Dilla was gone |
| That’s when I knew we’d live forever through song |
| Living once again |
| We live |
| Then you’re gone |
| Living once again |
| We live |
| Then you’re gone |
| Origin is forever |
| Well, well well |
| Here we are back in the studio again |
| Look at that |
| Hey I don' need no cue cards |
| They got the engineers holdin up the cue cards |
| What that say? |
| Oh they say, just talk, don’t sing |
| Son, I bet you feel like you and I’ve been here forever |
| Through these red eyes, beholding red eyes |
| I see my world’s tears |
| Yeah, origin is forever |
| Every peak will have 2 valleys |
| Hopeful eyes in the comfort |
| Of true protection and admiration of a child |
| That’s forever |
| Forever is to strive |
| A place of endearment |
| Forever is what I leave |
| My I-self contribution |
| Damn, what I’m gon' leave? |
| Ok… |
| I’ll leave my one and only grain of spiritual sand |
| To universal scales of humanity, all humanity |
| Forever is finding a solution to a solution |
| Tsunamis, hurricanes |
| Following the trails of the African slave ships |
| War, war, and more war |
| Floods, Columbine, global warming, earthquakes |
| Another somebody done me wrong, son |
| Virginia Tech, is not an, «Oh, what the heck?» |
| We’re still, did you place your one grain |
| Of spiritual sand forever? |
| Confusion need a solution |
| Blend and stir, stir and blend |
| The pot of humanity; |
| sift the ingredients |
| Of acknowledgment, apology, amendment, atonement |
| We gonna work with the four A’s here |
| Forever Pops |
| Common good is forever… |
| God’s memory is forever… |
