Senior Week Forever ft. D. Bell Lyrics

Ayo, Joe, wake up, son

Argh... I'm up

C'mon, you 'bout to miss your own graduation

I'm up, bro

C'mon son

I'm up

Yo, this your last day on campus... heh, you ready to leave

Ugh, not really... but all things must come to an end, right

Right

But last night though

Dixie cups stained with that Jungle Juice residue

Party went harder than what any of us ever knew

Records–yup, records–still slowly making revolu

Shuns what we done, yeah, I'm pretty sure the Heavens do

Papers, hush your face, getting carpal tunnel at the thought

We too busy laughing at these girls tryna grab their shorts

Broads streak the quad, loosened bras, but they chickened out

Knew the mental pictures would be sticking, picked a different route

They had the foresight of knowing life was bigger than

Silly bragging rights of "yeah, I flashed my tits and ran

Or "I survived cliff diving landing back first

Thank the Lord I walk erect, but when I sneeze and laugh, it hurts

There was a life we were avoiding full of shackles

Way too busy with these biddies in our laps tryna straddle

While they grinding like, high-fiving like, "Best. Week. Ever

Short sighted in rebellion like, "Grow up? Me?? Never

How I miss, how I miss

All the time we spent together

(Gether) Together

How I wish

We could live this life forever

Live this life forever

Forever, ever, but I gotta move on

I came in slim, a lil more disciplined

But all them Thursday night chicken cutlets made the differences

'Stead of lifting bars, I'm getting spotted five shots

Went from "just say no" to "hell yeah, why not"

Seventeen, morning person by default because of rules

But they never should've told me, "Choose your own time for school"

Went from six o'clock to averages of noon

All nighters doing things that'll probably threaten graduating soon like

Broads dorm hopping, curfews didn't exist

I ain't know whether they liked me or the good food in my fridge

Or weeknights at the bar, whether legal or underage

Books for tests that needed reading, ain't even a hundredth page

And church within the wild, just an afterthought

Kept the Word about as close as Advils and sunshades I hadn't bought

Despite a life inside a shot glass

Knew that God had His hand on me, still, dawg, I should have not passed

How I miss, how I miss

All the time we spent together

(Gether) Together

How I wish

We could live this life forever

Live this life forever

Forever, ever, but I gotta move on

I figured out why my degree was just a Bachelor of Arts

Still single in the mind before your marriage of the smarts

Haven't mastered every part of life, freedom turns to bondage

But beyond your special bonds, you seem to wander in despondence

To be a night owl, it has purpose

But only as a servant of the law or if you swerve 'em 'cause of raw

When you're flirting with them broads getting five hours of rest

You raise the likelihood of being knocked out your desk

Now you're stressed and overeating, your weakness exposed

So your weekends turn to seeking the sweet sins of old

Hennessy, weed and freakin' when we hit the road

Man, as fast as we were speeding, we should be in a hole

Bobby Hurley flow, 24, kinda early though

To have the right presence of mind to sacrifice our worldly robes

But bi-weekly visits to the doctor wasn't popping

And neither was skipping student loans and garnishing's the option

Hold up...can't be messing with my money, can't fold up

A senior five years too long, it's time to show up

Put on my cap and gown, stroll up, get my diploma

In diplomacy, handle my business and be the owner

Of more than just Coronas and old, broken Toyotas

Or debts from old posing and spending dough on them rollers

What didn't help, twice a year, I'd be back at school

Like I never left, you already know I'd act a fool

But when the women turn to girls nearly six years your junior

"Wait...when I walked the stage, she was watching Nick Jr

You toss your lil Dixie cup, fix you up quickly

'Cause disgust before the liks will have you spittin' up quickly

So get me, it's cool to just remember 21

But I don't even shop the store to feel Forever 21

One and done, though I often reminisce on that week

Always missing my crew, but never missing that me

How I miss, how I miss

All the time we spent together

(Gether) Together

How I wish

We could live this life forever

Live this life forever

Forever, ever, but I gotta move on

Can't stay young (forever, forever)

Try to stay young (forever, forever)

But you can't stay young

You know that you gotta move on (forever, forever)

Gotta move on (forever, forever)

Just move on

Yeah

It's time to get outta here, man
