"FORWARD" lyrics

I touch the sun, I feel renewed, it's looking gorgeous
I shed a tear for the first time in years this morning
I wasn't ready for everything I wanted
Guess all mine and my family's prayers wasn't for nothing
We came from next to nothing
Hate the way them drugs took my cousin
Hate the way them drugs took my bro
Last time we talked, he called from behind bars

He would probably say "Boy you took that shit far"
I would probably say "Didn't you know I was just one call away?"

So I'm ' do this for y'all
Gotta do this for y'all, gotta do this y'all
Even when it gets dark, no I ain't forgot

We was good kids, didn't always make the best decisions
Our folks did they're best with what they was gettin
Damn near killed themselves just to make a living
I can't let them die tryna make a living
Know we'd get somewhere if we get past our differences

This shit way bigger than me and how I'm feeling or imperfections
I turned my dream to a day job
But that was the same year all my friends and fam got laid off man
Now I'm always isolated, wonder if I strayed off
But when I was at my lowest, man that's where I found God

I was probably saying "Damn, how'd I stray so far?"
She would probably say don't you know I'm just one call away?
Gotta do this for y'all, gotta do this y'all
Even when it gets dark, no I ain't forgot
