Shoutout to Kanye West
Common
Cole
This one's for you baby girl
I love you
Faithful, let's be faithful
Common would've treated you the same
Back in time I wasn't always grateful for what I had
I took everything for granted, not a single understanding of the world that I'm around in
It's dark outside just stay inside for a minute, you can't fight it
These dark nights are temporary, already going through it at a young age, don't worry I'm here to stay
I make sure to give it my all on any given set
My favorite song is a song I haven't written yet
I blast phones so cold with different tones
I school every teacher in my city. different time zones
'Cause I know that I'm going through changes
I know that they always switching faces
But with you on my side everything is gon' be alright, gon' be alright
'Cause I love you I love you so much
Rewind back in time please baby don't judge
I wanna ride with you, fly with you everywhere I wanna go
I don't know what's going through my mind
I don't wanna lose you and have to resign
I just wanna lay in bed with you sitting right next to me
See back in time I'd always knew you'd be mine
Predicting the future like a wizard, painting pictures like a scripture
Going into the real world this shit is cold
Digging deeper in the ground until I find me some coal
To keep me warm at night while I'm watching fight night
At my homie Dennis' house with all the street lights
Enjoying the time we have until it's all gone
And we gotta get our asses up and move on
We gotta make a living for ourselves and take flight
I'm writing these lyrics right now from the future that's right
I didn't believe anyone wanted to hear what I had to say
Even if it's a couple hundred plays I don't do it for the fame
I don't care if I make a couple of bucks from it
It's for the people who know what's real and how to feel
Don't ever let anyone treat you wrong
And now we're singing along to our favorite song
'Cause I love you I love you so much
Rewind back in time please baby don't judge
I wanna ride with you, fly with you everywhere I wanna go
I don't know what's going through my mind
I don't wanna lose you and have to resign
I just wanna lay in bed with you sitting right next to me
Well life isn't perfect, but I know that it's worth it
It's nothing to die for, every single second you gotta live it
I was going through some shit man earlier this year
A Better America is what I strive for, time fold
I don't take handouts from anybody I do it on my own
I take it from the dome, I take no loans
I wanna sing to you
No autotune none of that fake shit
'Cause all these other girls I talked to always faked it
But when I talked to you I knew you were real
From the moment you looked in my eyes I knew it was real
From the hugs to the kisses, you healed all of my stitches
All this time I wasted chasing after all of these bitches
From the bad breakups to all the girls with makeup
It's a shame to see girls hiding their true colors, no mothers
In the picture, discolored, no summers
But now baby come here listen up
You don't need products to make you pretty you rock it how you are
You don't need to rock rich clothes to get you somewhere far
You don't need expensive gifts from the dude that you love
'Cause the real ones can give you presents that are priceless
I know these things like this don't always last forever
But I'm down to make this relationship last forever
So if you down with me well let's cut to the chase
Meet me at my house at 8 and I will show you a better way of life
