Burgundy Regal

(album: Father Figure 3: Somewhere Out There - 2019)

Back on my BS, right back on my head
I don't think that I'll ever leave
They pedaling dreams I never believed, these niggas say anything (Say anything)
Talking a funk about the time, you wish you could have it back (Wish you could have it back)
Handed them 25 to that L, already did half of that (Already did half of that)
Time waits for no one, wish you was here, I'm taking it on one
Back in that burgundy regal we called the dodges, never told no one, now I be global, mouth full of gold one
Tryna fill a void
Bittersweet feeling knowing I can't finish it with my boys

Still I crack my bags, I put all my feelings to the side
I can hear you saying, "Boy, stop playing them niggas shine every time"
For you are forever, push the lines, yeah
I'm pushing lines, yeah
Hands to the sky, I push
Pushing for the ones who ain't had a chance
Now I open my eyes and it looks (And it looks)
Just like the convos that we used to have
We was just a young niggas with big hearts and big dreams
Way before any of this happened we saw all of these things
Back when that Regal was burgundy, we had our eyes on that green, woah

Ayy, back when we took the 72 to Hilltop Mall
Wasn't the ones to get dropped off
Twisties looking like roaches, niggas got roasted 'til that shit got low
Back when I had the waves in the fitted wearing Jabos thinking I was knitted
But you stayed in the west, I stayed in Valejo, it's wild that we both ended up at Willard
The universe find a way to always put you where you supposed to be
I had a brother that never came around, really grew up like I was the only child
Really, he was the first brother that I ever had
Locked in it was never bad
Took me to the ghost, we walked on a stroll, we see them hoes who had hella ass
But more than that you had something in you
You had that beam of light ahead of your time, your spirit was gentle
Still had the heart of lion for niggas be tryna check your credentials
I just never thought these qualities would outlive you
I need check on your mama more
I hurt my heart when I'm talking to her
Probably should go see a therapist
But I was arrogant, I thought that it was embarrassing
Writing these raps I'm looking for clarity, yeah
You give me hope for things ahead of me
Even if it's temporary

Still I crack my bags, I put all my feelings to the side
I can hear you saying, "Boy, stop playing them niggas shine every time"
For you are forever, push the lines, yeah
I'm pushing lines, yeah
Hands to the sky, I push
Pushing for the ones who ain't had a chance
Now I open my eyes and it looks (And it looks)
Just like the convos that we used to have, oh
We was just a young niggas with big hearts and big dreams
Way before any of this happened we saw all of these things
Back when that Regal was burgundy, we had our eyes on that green, woah
