Текст песни Eternity Bae - Alexander Anderson

Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE

Born in '93 we headed to infinity
Might abuse but never lose the holy trinity
Wonder why these radio dudes befriended me
Then I remember that god has no enemies
Count my blessings, lessons life has given me
The values and morals have been instilled in me
Baptized by mother nature's distillery
No longer stressin' over life it's not a thriller B
Don't got to look for hatred in the US of A
Just spend a day black, muslim, or gay
It'll find you, inequality in the city ain't nothin new
Circumstances ain't pretty think I pity you?
You must be silly fool, cuz I done
Been around the block, I'm a witty dude
And I done been across the world and seen niggas with a lot less
In a hot mess do a whole lot more
But before then, I mean before all else
I was a child of god with a fam and good health
No fans but myself and my momma, no drama
Before the presidency of Barack Obama
I had a vision, to rediscover who I really was
Before the daily dose of miseducation and drugs
No plans, police would still smile at a nigga
Till I became a man go figure
Ya'll cops supposed to protect me? That's like me
Giving a loan to a banker in a Bentley
Guess I'ma have to protect myself, protect my block
Protect my neck, protect my health
Protect my damn wealth, before it dries up
Fish at the bottom of the lake be fried up they
Tried to deny us, wouldn't reply to us but now
We slippin' away to spend eternity with BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE

Slippin' away, my tears be drippin' away
Wanted to run forever now I'm missin' the way
You would look me in my eyes and just listen not a day goes
By without reminiscing, used to bail me outta'
Jail when I was on my way to prison, love given
Now world peace is my mission
Stepped down in Africa so my blood thickened
Still rippin, that bush kush is well hidden
Wanted to have eternity because it lasts forever
Don't need the forecast just predict the weather
Floating to the stars, because I'm light as a feather
Heavy weather, tale spinnin, feelin clever
Never better, than when I was with you
The grass was greener then, and the sky was blue
I changed up my demeanor, found a new purview
Or lens to look through, for those who don't have a clue
Those of you who never knew, never properly educated
Separated from you ancestors and regulated
Segregated by school systems and denigrated
Just to settle for a desk job and think we made it
Comin' for my freedom since I got up off the slave ship
From the Caribbean, shoutout to Jamaicans
Shoutout to Daygo, shoutout to LA
But these phony niggas gotta' go, day by day
Watchin' life, as 1984 comes true
Questioning the value of red, white and blue
Or a nation built upon genocide and slavery
The native people aren't around and nobody paid me
400 years of free labor and nobody thanked me?
Bought the American dream, feel like somebody pranked me
When the pressure gets so hot feels like it's burnin' me
That's when I let my struggle fade into eternity
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
Loved ones slipping away, dreaming you'll
Come back to me for Eternity BAE
