Lyrics Jim Jones – Nothing Lasts
Text:
Jim Jones:
But I-I could always hear a voice in the back of my head
No matter what type of wrong I was doin’
(Heatmakerz)
Funny, right?
That’s how life goes sometimes
Set
So as the star shine down on us (Real bright)
New Rollie, is it time wind down on us
Hit the club, skip line with the pound on us
You can hear the shots flyin’ from around the corner
Preacher said we should count every minute (Pray)
Microwave, I cook up an ounce in a minute (What you need?)
I was way more into money than I was into fame (Facts)
I was prayin’ for the summers when the winter came (July shit)
Lord knows it be somethin’ ’bout the warm weather
I just lost 4k on a foreign better (Set back)
I was playin’ two games like a doubleheader (Woo)
Jewish lawyers to retain in case they come and get us (Huh)
I put up numbers in the spellin’ bee (Shoot)
Where I’m from, everyone was tryna sell a ki (Harlem)
I was one wrong move from a felony
I could hear mama now, what she was tellin’ me
Marc Scibilia:
Let’s ride the highs and lows, see where this thing goes
Will it bring us back together?
It always makes me sad, so I try hard to forget
Nothing’s gonna last forever
Fabolous:
No more niggas like us, cloth discontinued
No more servin’ that, had to switch the menu
No more in and out of jail, just a bitch or venues
No time for a square unless I Richie M you, uh
One-fifty on the wrist, not the time though
Cover it in ice, where the time go?
They be comin’ after me all the time, yo
Yeah, I’m the tequila, not the lime, hoe
I’m paid in full and I’m booked
When I’m back, I’ma show you how the Cullinan look
Nothin’ lasts forever, heard bull on the hook
Still goin’ cray on ’em like a colorin’ book
Yeah, forever flow, can’t kill me, they tried it
I came with the fire, never Billy and Ja’d it
They stealin’ drip, hear my story be weak
Yo, I swear I hate you little niggas more than Tariq
Marc Scibilia:
Let’s ride the highs and lows, see where this thing goes
Will it bring us back together?
It always makes me sad, so I try hard to forget
Nothing’s gonna last forever
«If you just say no, what are you gonna say yes to?
We say yes to education
We say yes to dedication
We climb up to a highest nation
And use their motivation to make a positive impact on our nation»
