Jon Bellion - Welcome To Forever lyrics

[Hook] This is real life, the only one we get to live I remember being broke and thinking something gotta give This is real life, everything we do is legendary And we gon' do it to the day we in the cemetery Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming Used to feel like I was nothing, now my life has meaning Said this is real life, god damn this is real life [Verse 1] Yeah, I've been fiending for this moment I've been dreaming 'bout this moment I guess this is how it feel to have everything you ever wanted Writing these records like a dissertation While the fans goin' crazy from anticipation Damn, nine years that's a lot of patience And now I'm looking at my idols and feeling adjacent It's hell of a long way from back in the basement Looking at hip-hop tryna find my placement I bought my first pair of Jordans at 22 Same year I bought a crib too Now my face in magazines I used to flip through And my music on all the sites I used to sift through Remember meeting Nas for the first time Shook his hand and he started quoting my lines Said he a fan, god damn this is my time I'mma get it, I'mma do it till we prime time I told him every single day that I be at it In the studio recording like an addict He said that real hip-hop sh** I had it Thinking to myself, "Damn, man, you made Illmatic" [Hook] I used to wonder what it feel like [Verse 2] Aight, I guess we back again With another verse about how much I'm black again You don't like it blame God for the packaging Bringing up my race, don't call me a white rapper then Damn, they judging me by my skin tone Instead of my talent, man these motherf**ers been wrong But it's all good I just thought I'd address it And spell it out for people so they can finally a**ess it This is dedicated to anyone with a dream And a realization of what following it means Breaking the cycle and not following your genes That perfect moment when your logic intervenes And let you know that everything ain't always what it seems But if you really looking, I promise you'll find your dreams This is everything I ever wanted, half of y'all won't get it The other half will probably laugh and wonder how I did it I just spit it from my mind, one word at the time Take everything I'm going through and put it in a rhyme I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a lot of weight upon my shoulders But this is my therapy as I flow this Spilling out my heart, I just hope somebody notice I've been real from the start and you motherf**ers know this Once my name elevated that's when the fame escalated But on the real, I've grown accustomed to the stares People watching every move I make like it was theirs All up in my business, and even in my personal affairs Now, I know I talk a lot of game, but I ain't trynna sell you Cause honestly, I could show you better than I could tell you And even though there's been moments when everything have fell through We kept it moving, a**uming even the greatest fail too I swear this business sh** is do or die I never contemplated suicide, I'm too alive In front of thousands, but I'm talking like it's you and I And everyday fewer find their dreams because fewer try [Hook] [Jay-Z] Everything I seen, made me everything I am Everything I do, I'm a man behind mine [Jon Bellion] Said, welcome to forever Welcome to forever Welcome to... forever...
