Forever (clean) Songtext
von Drake

It may not mean nothin′ to y'all
But understand, nothin′ was done for me
So I don't plan on stoppin' at all
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

I shuttin′ shit down in the mall
And tellin′ every girl she the one for me
And I ain't even plannin′ to call
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

Last name ever, first name greatest
Like a sprained ankle, boy I ain't nothin′ to play with
Started off local, but thanks to all the haters
I know G4 pilots on a first name basis

In your city faded off the brown, Nino
She insists she got more class, we know
Swimmin' in the money, come and find me, Nemo
If I was at the club you know I ball, chemo


Drop the mixtape, that shit sounded like a album
Who′d have thought a countrywide tour would be the outcome?
Labels want my name beside the X like Malcolm
Everybody got a deal, I did it without one

Yeah nigga, I'm about my business
Killin' all these rappers, you would swear I had a hit list
Everyone who doubted me is askin′ for forgiveness
If you ain′t been a part of it, at least you got to witness
Bitches

It may not mean nothin' to y′all
But understand nothin' was done for me
So I don′t plan on stoppin' at all
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

I shuttin′ shit down in the mall
And tellin' every girl she the one for me
And I ain't even plannin′ to call
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

Hey, ever-ever, Mr. West is in the buildin′
Ain't no question who about to kill ′em

I used to have hood dreams, big fame, big chains
I stuck my dick inside this life until that bitch came
I went hard all fall like the ball teams
Just so I can make it rain all spring


Y'all seen my story, my glory
I had raped the game young, you can call it statutory
When a nigga blow up, they gon′ build statues for me

Old money Benjamin Button, what? Nothin'
Now super bad chicks giving me McLovin′
You would think I ran the world like Michelle's husband
You would think these niggas know me
When they really doesn't
Like they was down with the old me
No you fucking wasn′t

You′re such a fuckin' loser
He ain′t even go to class, Bueller
Trade the Grammy plaques just to have my granny back
Remember she had that bad hip like a fanny pack

Chasin' that stardom would turn you into a maniac
All the way in Hollywood, and I can′t even act
They pull their cameras out, and godamn he snap
I used to want this thing forever, y'all can have it back

It may not mean nothin′ to y'all
But understand nothin' was done for me
So I don′t plan on stoppin′ at all
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

I shuttin' shit down in the mall
And tellin′ every girl she the one for me
And I ain't even plannin′ to call
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

Okay, hello, it's the Martian, Space Jam Jordans
I want this shit forever, wake up and smell the garden
Fresher than the harvest, step up to the target
If I had one guess, then I guess I′m just New Orleans

And I would never stop like I'm runnin' from the cops
Hopped up in my car and told my chauffeur, to the top
Life is such a fuckin′ roller coaster, then it drops
But what should I scream for, this is my theme park

My mind shine even when my thoughts seem dark
Pistol on my side, you don′t wanna hear that thing talk
Let the king talk, check the price and pay attention
Lil Wayne, that's what they got to say or mention

I′m like Nevada in the middle of the summer
I'm restin′ in the lead, I need a pillow and a cover
Shh, my foot's sleeping on the gas
No brake pads, no such thing as last

It may not mean nothin′ to y'all
But understand nothin' was done for me
So I don′t plan on stoppin′ at all
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

I shuttin' shit down in the mall
And tellin′ every girl she the one for me
And I ain't even plannin′ to call
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

There they go, packin' stadiums as Shady spits his flow
Nuts they go, macadamian, they go so ballistic, whoa
He can make them look like Bozos
He′s wondering if he should spit this slow

Fuck no! Go for broke
His cup just runneth over, oh no
He ain't had a real buzz like this
Since the last time that he overdosed
They been waitin' patiently for Pinocchio to poke his nose

Back into the game, and they know
Rap will never be the same as before
Bashing in the brains of these hoes
And establishing a name as he goes
The passion and the flame is ignited
You can′t put it out once we light it

This shit is exactly what the fuck
That I′m talkin' about when we riot
You dealin′ with a few true villains
Who stand inside of the booth truth spillin'
And spit true feelings until our tooth fillings
Come flyin′ up out of our mouths, now rewind it

Payback motherfucker for the way that you doubted me
How's it taste?
When I slap the taste outta your mouth
With the bass so loud that it shakes the place
I′m Hannibal Lecter, so just in case
You're thinkin' of savin′ face
You ain′t gonna have no face to save
By the time I'm through with this place so Drake

It may not mean nothin′ to y'all
But understand nothin′ was done for me
So I don't plan on stoppin′ at all
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane

I shuttin' shit down in the mall
And tellin' every girl she the one for me
And I ain′t even plannin′ to call
I want this shit forever mane, ever mane, ever mane
