"Queen & Slim" lyrics
Coast Contra & BJ the Chicago Kid Lyrics
Hmm
Say you wanna live forever, huh?
I mean, for real for real? I mean
You really wanna live forever? Hmm
Shit, let's see
I put the foreground to life with my vision board
Background drowning out from sirens and white noise
Rhythm fairly faded, still I caught it and kept my poise
It's not to be debated, either be great or be destroyed
Fuck your conversation, if it's basic, we keep it coy
Was fuckin' off of basic instincts, feelings premature
Shaft made of gold so just imagine what's at my core
Like if you got to know me, you would know I'm a paramour
Just looking for
Inamorata, a rider, a woman
My generation product of narcotics for numbing
It's fathers early retired, tired mamas becoming daddies
It's gun violence, your son dyin' for nothin'
And your daughters be suckin' dick 'fore they even get they first kiss
And nobody catchin' the hint, she ain't cryin' for nothin', I'm sayin'
I mean she gotta be cryin' for somethin', I'm sayin'
I mean she gotta be, we rob society
Dreams of ghetto ballin' and callin' iso' regardless of what court I'm in
Point out the judge for bearing grudge to my melanin
Point blank, period, the shit's irrelevant
Done playing humble, I'm arrogant, I'm better than it
Act like you know a nigga gifted
You never found a broken branch from underneath my Christmas
With all the woulds on the wishlist, Santa must've missed it
And niggas never would, 'cause I'm different
Oh, don't you wanna live forever? (Don't you wanna live forever?)
'Cause we can live forever together (We can live forever together)
Only if you (You)
Really wanna live forever (Live forever)
But we can live forever together (Forever together)
Just come fly with me
Strictly for the love of the music, I got involved and evolved
It don't matter where I'm from 'cause my skin is my logo
These cops tryna lock me up or kill me with a four-four
Ain't no justice in the system, 'specially for another nigga
'Specially on your second strike and when that third one come quicker
'Specially when he dreams bigger and he know he can't switch up
Though his people might switch up
Only way it's gettin' clearer is by lookin' in the mirror
But yo, even you would think I was odd if I told you that we was gods
But a conversation with Taj and he clearly would just oblige
You decide, 'cause what really matters is what's inside
I just look 'em straight in they eyes and I can see spiritual smiles
They visions, they tell us lies, we are not to be itemized
We are not to be idolized, see the body is a disguise
I'ma always fly, I promise to never die
Forever I will be immortalized, what's up?
Oh, don't you wanna live forever? (Nobody gave us somethin' to believe in)
'Cause we can live forever together (I mean that for real)
Only if you (You)
Really wanna live forever (Live forever)
But we can live forever together (Forever together, uh, yo)
Just come fly with me
Blood of a thousand hearts coursing through our veins
This black pride, don't shuck and jive to entertain
Soul of a lion, suited to triumph all of our days and reign
Like a drop of freedom fallin' on slaves
We shall remain the people's champion, glorifying the Pantheon
MLK with an AK, AKA Malcolm X-cellence
Bulletproofing my melanin, stepping through shadow valley of death
No weapon that's formed can harm me, you uninformed
I live in harmony, BJ givin' us harmonies
Fuck your authority, comin' from a minority
Speakin' for the majority, speaking to you
Speakin' the truth the first priority, fuck what you do
Strap up your boots and move accordingly, it's up to you
Look in the mirror and look ahead, you see a leader instead
If not, then you been misled, if not then I know the way
Stay the course, we ain't far away
Oh, don't you wanna live forever? (Can I be your legacy?)
'Cause we can live forever together (You already are)
Only if you (You)
Really wanna live forever (Live forever)
But we can live forever together (Forever together)
Just come fly with me (Just come fly with me)
Just come fly with me
Just come fly with me
Say you wanna live forever, huh?
I mean, for real for real? I mean
You really wanna live forever? Hmm
Shit, let's see
