Intro
Felt that empty spot on my finger, cold as the block in winter. Thought the game was over, no more wins, just splinters.
Verse 1
Boxed up the crib, dust bunnies on the floor, echoes bouncin' off the walls no more. Gold band chillin' on the dresser like a ghost from the past, memories flash but they fade fast. Years grindin' through the bullshit, fights in the kitchen, kids' laughter turnin' to distant echoes, wishin'. Love felt like a setup, a trap I couldn't beat, summit too steep, defeat on repeat. From ATL corners to Chi-town streets, NY subways to LA heat, same pain, different beats. Repo man knockin', light bill stackin' high, corner store runs for that cheap high. But I kept pushin', scars on my chest, learned the hard way, love's a test.
Pre-chorus
Then you slid through on a Tuesday, vibe check, world lit up like payday.
Chorus
This forever again, Forever again Love I can trust, no cap, no pretend. Thought my book was sealed, end of the script, But you the next chapter, perfect flip. Love ain't dead, It just begun We risin' from the ashes, under the sun.
Verse 2
Forty on the clock, nervous as hell on that first link-up, spilled Henny on my kicks, thought I fucked up. But you cracked up, said "Me too, fam," vibes electric, no scam. Chopped it up till the spot closed down, hand brush mine, spark like fireworks in town. No games, straight facts in your gaze, under them city lights, haze. From the block where dreams get deferred, to hustlin' double shifts, word. We bond over real shit: evictions, addictions, but now we flippin' the script, no fiction.
Chorus
This forever again, Forever again Love I can trust, no cap, no pretend. Thought my book was sealed, end of the script, But you the next chapter, perfect flip. Love ain't dead, It just begun We risin' from the ashes, under the sun.
Bridge
Lil' shorty showed you her crayon scribbles today, You kneeled down, hyped it up like "That's fire, okay!" Saw a fam pic I ain't dreamed in years, New bonds heal the tears, conquer fears.
Verse 3
You trace that bare finger, no flinch, just stare, Said "Past is prologue, we build from there." We ain't fresh out the gate, got battle wounds glowin', Real love simmers slow, no fast-forward showin'. Holdin' you close, fears melt like ice in the trap, This life we craftin', no lookin' back. From hood struggles to that come-up glow, We turn pain to power, let the whole world know.
Chorus
This forever again, Forever again Love I can trust, no cap, no pretend. Thought my book was sealed, end of the script, But you the next chapter, perfect flip. Love ain't dead, It just begun We risin' from the ashes, under the sun.
Outro
Ring on the dresser, but your grip in mine. This our forever, straight divine. Forever again... Love I can trust... Ain't over, just begun... Dust to dust.
Inside the recording
Felt that empty spot on my finger, cold as the block in winter. Thought the game was over, no more wins, just splinters.
Then you slid through on a Tuesday, vibe check, world lit up like payday.
Ring on the dresser, but your grip in mine. This our forever, straight divine.
