Last Forever

(album: Dirt Road Revival - 2021)

I wish the past would last forever
Never wanted to see change but
Now that you're gone I know it'll never be the same
I was the past would last forever
I was the past would last forever

We'd get wild and tear it up
Well known around the area
No backing down, we wasn't scared of nothing
You run that mouth you better not be bluffing
I remember when they hauled you to jail over that warrant
And I came and posted your bail while I was drunk
Boy, it's hard to believe that all these memories are just that
All I have left of you and me
And now it's in the past
Had I known I didn't have long to hold on to all we had
I would've held on a hell of a lot harder
'Cause now I want it back
Back to us laughing over that green thirty pack
Back to riding them storms in my boat while we were after them bass
Back to the basics
Before I realized what I had
Wouldn't last

I wish the past would last forever
Never wanted to see change but
Now that you're gone I know it'll never be the same
I was the past would last forever
I was the past would last forever

We were supposed to be doing this together, Russ
Named your daughter after me and I still ain't met her but
I will so Imma tell her how cool her dad was
How he's the reason that Charlie Farley's even got this buzz
Fact
I know it's sad but I'm glad that God made sure our paths crossed
I guarantee without that my ass would have never hit that asphalt
I would've been a drunk nobody rapping to no one in Arkansas
Pointing fingers making it someones fault and running from the law
But oh no, we living it up now
Doing everything they said we'd never do
Got the entire country getting down
To rap with backwoods roots
Yeah that's that Russ Cain sound
Brother, I love you
Imma keep it like we used to say
Locked down

I wish the past would last forever
Never wanted to see change but
Now that you're gone I know it'll never be the same
I was the past would last forever
I was the past would last forever
