Lyrics
[Verse 1] We're the rare gems here to repair hems The ceiling for the crack Sons of men who walk the fine line of Grammy's and plaques with the IRS on they back A mismanaged life But still manage to miss strife Damn, I miss Phife Survival to grab and get stabbed like dammit, this knife [Verse 2] Glamourous life, no flash and no cameras Twice in a year, lost my man and this pain so damaging Hard to get a handle when I'm managing By dancin' in the rain, the same color of amethyst Such as the life of a bang up artist Already in fire trouble and the game just started Take a step back before your heart hardens Plant new seeds, rearrange your square gardens Sharpen your shot selection or face obsolescence Thanks to Muddy Ranks, I got them lessons, and I'm out [Chorus: Darien Brockington] Brother can you tell me how it feels to live forever? [Verse 3] Forever ever So raise your glasses to The Five-Foot Freak for the love of it Nice cool drink of Ginger Ale to rejuvenate Didn't wanna ruminate, so I put rum in it Let me break 'cause it's time to get bent But time with my brethren is time well spent [Verse 4] Ayo, rappers in the house represent, represent A holy trinity soundin' so heaven sent Blow the trumpets, tea and crumpets, respect royalty Nobody warned me this could be the future Experience life through false computers, mental polluters We God like, high steppin' over Judas No looters of the legacy Audio specialty Check the rhyme, it's like you standin' right next to me Blessed to be considered a one-to-one Continue to wave the flag for a champion And it's on [Chorus: Darien Brockington] Brother, can you tell me how it feels to live forever? [Verse 5] We rounding third base Champions only, we love the way that Cham' taste Carolina blue, Phife's favorite hue Paintin' pictures in the sky, takin' in the view And God lives through This the memories that make you laugh So many stories in the photograph [Verse 6] Yo I'm a paragraph, president Never been impeached, that's evident I sit between forgotten and relevant Flappin' both like wings but never land We deal with any issue in the room Got bags of unshelled peanuts for the elephant I'm from a tribe who survived all entanglements Speak fluent in Malik who kept the heat Under baseball fitteds where the Kangol went I own this shop 'cause I never rent [Bridge: Darien Brockington] I just wanna live, I just wanna live forever Alright, alright On and on and on and on and on On and on and on On and on and on and on and on Yeah Right on and live forever [Outro: Phife Dawg] Everybody takes the easy way out You know what I'm saying? If its something they have to think about Then don't ever really give it a chance And it's unfortunate Because there's is a lot of good music out there If you just sit and listen to it Y'know what I mean? But they rather go with a catchy hook Instead of lyrically listen to the whole song They'll just listen to the hook and the beat Get they drink and they smoke and they dance on And that's it, y'know what I'm saying? But there's more to life than just that, y'know what I'm saying? You can get your party on, your groove on, or whatever but There's people that go to work everyday There's people that are on welfare everyday There's people that go to the library and learn something everyday, y'know what I'm saying? So Unfortunately these kids They rather listen to us kick it in a rhyme or a verse than listen to their own teacher at school And on that note, being that it's unfortunate We still have deal with it So being that they'll rather listen to us We gotta kick something else to them other than What kind of car I drive or How many chicks I brought home from the party last night You know? You know what I mean? Let's give these youth something else 'Cause this is all, that's all this music is, a youth movement If we fill they heads with nothing but BS They are gon' go out like that You know what I'm sayin'? And Everybody tryna have kids now Come on man, let's get it together [Outro] Aight, so when I say "Phife", y'all say "Forever" Phife (Forever) Phife (Forever) Phife (Forever) Everybody put five fingers in the sky for Phife Dawg Y'all ready? We gon' take it back like this, let's go
