Wale - The Forward lyrics

My name's Wale, you probly know me from the you know Aye that was one of my favorite joints man You remember that day of mine? sh** That's one of my favorite lines cause You know I'm hard to please man You know that But you won me over n***a You can't lose yourself in this sh** holmes Cannot do it man, it's too many lives at stake You know we do this sh** for the district Them youngins man Them youngins that don't have a voice Nobody was before us man Nobody made it this far We do this for all our homies behind the wall Who never got a chance to see this movement in real form You gotta remember this sh** man You do this for them young n***as who we inspire and open the musical doors for We are the district, Wale We the district, n***a We can't lose ourselves This blood run too thick This district culture too raw Yo like AB said n***a, the dream is real Let's live in it We already fled our homes We been f**ing up the DC club scene since platinum days n***a But you always stayed on subject If these listeners too dumb to understand you gave them subject in the club At the same token on Chain Music The never gon get it My n***a, can you really believe they thought you was talking bout a f**in chain? Man, from tourin to cla**ic tapes n***a you and Dre been the hour sessions, 2007 Now we talking bout Grammies We talkin bout Grammies n***a You understand that? Can you believe that? We up for a Grammy n***a We ain't got sh** else to prove We already did the unthinkable Man, listen Ralph You just gotta give these n***as Folarin
