Brett Sekoya - EVERGREEN Lyrics

On and on they go
On and on they go
On and on they go
On and on they go
On and on they go
One by one they go
On and on they go

Heavy heart
I was not afraid
I grew up in the dark
Made a mess
That's what niggas get
When they go swim with sharks
Bittersweet, evergreen
I fell in love with parks
Tokyo pieces from my youth
Out in Denmark
I was in a fairytale
Mama had to pay my bail
Ex was steady sending mail
Could barely sleep up in my cell
Gotta couple priors
Blacking out was my desire
We stayed by the water
But we always played with fire
I can take her higher
But to her I'm just a liar
Gave her all the rest
But she still is always tired
We fed up
No lock down
But there's no one here around
How I end up in a ghost town?
Fast life living
We was just chillin
Plotting on a million (Turn me up)
Couldn't give a f*ck about the world
We distracted by the girls
And they just wanted pearls
So they could flex with with they curls
Chops to the ceiling
Too good at hiding feelings
One by one they leaving
And I resented dealing with it
Silly me, so opposed to reality
Busy bee, stinging for fatalities
Been working on my dream so long
Ain't notice they ain't next to me
Cold nights, darker days
Everybody has a way
I envisioned sweet escapes
With those that I grew up with
Was sure of it
So childish
Pressed a bit
I'm wilding like I'm a still a jit
Just tryna be legit
The music always helped with this
Was barely gettin rest
I ain't wanna start my quest
Had a heavy chest
Asthma had me in distress
Why can't we be young forever?
Looking at the stars
Chase our dreams together
Mind steady racing, it ain't gettin much better
Sat down patient, started writing this letter
Still don't feel any better
Can't stop thinking bout when we was changing the weather
Boot up 2K shots we started spanking the leather
Dodged a couple thots, they all just birds of a feather
Me and all my dawgs, it was just us yeah we tethered
And I admit sometimes I relate to a Jenner
Got some gold medals but not switching the gender
Where I'm standing at, I'm the only contender
Last Airbender
Why can't we be young forever?
Why can't we be young forever?
Tell me, why can't we be young forever?
Why can't we be young forever?
