Alumni - For a Reason Lyrics



Alumni - For a Reason Lyrics
Official




New trends coming in, old niggas linking up
To the top, where we coulda been when I think of us
The past is the past, the future only God knows
Ever since the Nas show, we been viral
Chino X said "bring it back like cornrows"
So I picked the phone up, called Mahtie up
I was in the zone, pouring up like Lollicup
Blunt in my hand, confronting him with a plan
Like "all we need to do is get Prhyme in the booth
Call the troops, guaranteed Miguel'll fall in the loop"
But wait
It's kinda hard to talk like this
'Cause when the boat started to sink
L abandoned the ship
But f*ck it
'Cause even I learned to swim
With some raw ass Hippies that showed me to win
But wait
Ain't nothing like The A
Them my niggas from the start, and I ain't walking away
This time
I used to think we'd always be together, what a shame
The days pass and time separated our names
We waded through the rain together, back in the day
You were like my f*cking brothers, I'da never led astray
But then that chapter closed before I ever read a page
If we got it back tomorrow, it would never be the same
And I don't wanna face the change of another season
Believing that everything ain't happen for a reason
We say we back, but niggas never knew we even left
It's a new generation of people, what you expect?
I ain't trippin' off the past, cause I mean, I been workin'
Shit hasn't been easy, but I ain't saying I'm perfect
Same contacts and goals, but y'all didn't try
The weak link that ended up having the most drive
So here we are again, back in the lab, spittin'
Trying to give back our city what they've been missin'
Plus I've been ripping niggas, so the link is brawlik
My hustle rubbed off, now we all some workaholics
Got so many projects that I'm working on now
And we long overdue for our album to come out
I'm ready if you ready, got a solid game plan
Clenching mics with my right, and write checks with the same hand
Talks about the past, that's a drinking conversation
Now back to the music, 'cause our people been waitin'
I used to think we'd always be together, what a shame
The days pass and time separated our names
We waded through the rain together, back in the day
You were like my f*cking brothers, I'da never led astray
But then that chapter closed before I ever read a page
If we got it back tomorrow, it would never be the same
And I don't wanna face the change of another season
Believing that everything ain't happen for a reason
My memory's impeccable, I can recall the day
We all came up with such an illustrious name
The A
Was in the building, so appealing to the masses
Gave barely legal chicks fully developed hot flashes
Underground in a casket is where we buried the hatchet
Had a couple clashes, but now we finally back
Shit
Fast-forward the time now
Me and M.I. down
In the studio, making music for that Grindhouse
Time out
Yo, I miss that Alumni sound
Well, call up Bush and Kellyn, then
Tell 'em meet us at my house
We can hatch a plan and get back in the lab right now
I never stopped workin' on verses
I just didn't write 'em down
The drive now is ridiculous
Now we give a f*ck
Recording, mixing stuff, and working like there's six of us
The jig is up
So give it up, or get your shit together
Bitch, you get a month before we put the mixtape up
I used to think we'd always be together, what a shame
The days pass and time separated our names
We waded through the rain together, back in the day
You were like my f*cking brothers, I'da never led astray
But then that chapter closed before I ever read a page
If we got it back tomorrow, it would never be the same
And I don't wanna face the change of another season
Believing that everything ain't happen for a reason
