Forever Feel - Packy

I grew up with some brothers, we’d always talk about gettin' the money

One way or another, then split it up with each other

We were the shit back then, it would never change, right?

One of us would get a break and we’d get everything, right?

Not so fast, time passed and we skated by

Weekdays, skipped class, weekends, faded

While people got jobs, got bread, got graded high

I was rappin' in a city no rapper had made it out

I decided I’ma do it, took a year went MIA

Music started doing numbers, I was seeing better days

We were hitting milestones quicker than expected

My team was killing it, you couldn’t accept it

Why though?

You’d always acted like we’d hit the lotto

I was looking like the ticket, you had too much pride to follow

I tried to tell you this was everything we’d hoped for

I wasn’t gonna beg you so I had to close the door

You coulda made it with me, we coulda had it all

I let you take your time, I swear I waited for y’all

You never got it though, maybe you never will

Now it’s time for me to go and see how forever feel

It’s real now, I’ma be a big deal now

Same vision but the view is looking surreal now

Nobody left behind, you chose to stay

You can hide the past but it never goes away

You were busy living, I was on a mission

Couple times I tried to talk, you acted like you listened

Then it came time to act, you always came up missing

Not really surprised, though

I was never one to get the love from other suckers I know

All I did is fuck around, become the hardest act to follow in my city

Kicking dudes up off the stage like its Apollo in my city

Couple years of disrespect got me hollow in my city

But that’s only for a few, you gotta think it’s probably you

Ahh damn, you prolly thought I wouldn’t break through, huh man?

Now everyday you look more and more like a fan

I never understood the hate but I hate it

Now even when I get love I feel like it’s late, we so underrated

I’m tryna beat the system when nobody thinks you can

Until you do it, then they listen

Then they come around when they ain’t got no pot to piss in

And they see you winning off of shit you did for kicks in the beginning

They don’t see behind the scenes, they ignore you until they see you living

dreams

Man you saw me everyday, guess you ain’t see anything, damn

You coulda made it with me, we coulda had it all

I let you take your time, I swear I waited for y’all

You never got it though, maybe you never will

Now it’s time for me to go and see how forever feel

It’s real now, I’ma be a big deal now

Same vision but the view is looking surreal now

Nobody left behind, you chose to stay

You can hide the past but it never goes away

I guess it is what it is, my motivation is this

To make 'em hear me 'til the ignorance is piss

Like when all your friends came to the house

You thought you were the man

Until you heard they all got my name in their mouth

It’s coming full circle for me

Now I’m gone but you can’t escape me

I’ve been fast-laning on 'em with no belt for the safety

I’m so made for this shit, I swear I slaved for this shit

Mention me with legends or I won’t be okay with this shit

'Cause I lost it all for the chase, no guarantee I’ma make it

But this is where they separate real from the ones that fake it

So adios to my quote-on-quote competition, I’m moving up

Talkin' about your hopes and dreams but you don’t do enough

Say you’d kill for my spot, word?

Would you die for it?

Yeah?

That’s a flat lie

Me?

I’d flatline for it

Don’t be surprised if I don’t recognize you when you come to me

Telling me you finally opened your eyes

By then I’ll be long gone, you could have made it with me

Yeah, by then I’ll be long gone, you could have made it with me

Now you’re just the words to a song
