Welcome To Forever

F  Em Am
F  Em Am


[Chorus]
        F
This is real life, the only one we 
get to live
    Em                             
I remember being broke and thinking
 Am
 something gotta give
        F                          
This is real life, everything we do
              Em
 is legendary
                         Am
And we gon' do it to the day we in 
the cemetery
F             G
Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming
        C
Used to feel like I was nothing, now
 my life has meaning
             Dm                    
Said this is real life, goddamn 
     C
this is real life


[Verse 1]
                F
Yeah, I've been fiending for this 
moment
          F
I've been dreaming 'bout this moment
        Em                         
I guess this is how it feel to have
      Am                    F
 everything you ever wanted
Writing these records like a 
F
dissertation
          Em                   
While the fans goin' crazy from 
   Am
anticipation
    F                     G
Damn, nine years that's a lot of 
patience
            C
And now I'm looking at my idols and 
feeling adjacent
     Dm
It's hell of a long way from back in
 the basement
C
Looking at hip-hop tryna find my 
placement
            F                      
I bought my first pair of Jordans 
             Em
at twenty-two
                     Am
Same year I bought a crib too
       F
Now my face in magazines I used to 
flip through
       Em                          
And my music on all the sites I 
     Am
used to sift through
                 F
Remember meeting Nas for the first 
time
                      Em     
Shook his hand and he started 
                   Am
quoting my lines?
                  F
Said he a fan, goddamn this is my 
time
                  G             
I'ma get it, I'ma do it 'till we 
            F
prime time
I told him every single day that I 
         Em
be at it
                Am
In the studio recording like an 
addict
F
He said that real hip-hop shit I had
 it
         Em                        
Thinking to myself, "Damn, man, you
 Am
 made illmatic"

     C
this is real life
                         F
I used to wonder what it feel like


[Verse 2]
                             Em
Aight, I guess we back again
                    Am           
With another verse about how much 
                 F
I'm black again
                        F
You don't like it blame God for the 
packaging
Em                              
Bringing up my race, don't call 
Am                     F
me a white rapper then
           G
Damn, they judging me by my skin 
tone
C                             
Instead of my talent, man these 
                           Dm
motherfuckers been wrong
                 Dm
But it's all good I just thought I'd
 address it
    C
And spell it out for people so they 
can finally assess it
F
This is dedicated to anyone with a 
dream
Em                        Am
And a realization of what following 
it means
F                                 
Breaking the cycle and not 
              Em
following your genes
                              Am
That perfect moment when your logic 
intervenes
    F                           
And let you know that everything 
       G
ain't always what it seems
    C
But if you really looking, I promise
 you'll find your dreams
        Dm
This is everything I ever wanted, 
half of y'all won't get it
    C
The other half will probably laugh 
and wonder how I did it
       F
I just spit it from my mind, one 
word at the time
     Em                          
Take everything I'm going through 
     Am
and put it in a rhyme
       F                           
I'd be lying if I said I didn't 
                          Em
have a lot of weight upon my 
shoulders
               Am
But this is my therapy as I flow 
this
F                             G
Spilling out my heart, I just hope 
somebody notice
          C
I've been real from the start and 
you motherfuckers know this
        Dm                       
Once my name elevated that's when 
                    C
the fame escalated
But on the real, I've grown 
  C
accustomed to the stares
F
People watching every move I make 
like it was theirs
       Em                          
All up in my business, and even in 
   Am
my personal affairs
   F                             
Now, I know I talk a lot of game, 
                             Em
but I ain't trynna sell you
                        Am      
Cause honestly, I could show you 
                              F
better than I could tell you
                             G     
And even though there's been 
                            C
moments when everything have fell 
through
We kept it moving, assuming even the
               Dm
 greatest fail too
             Dm                    
I swear this business shit is do or
     C
 die
                     C           
I never contemplated suicide, I'm 
           F
too alive
In front of thousands, but I'm 
F
talking like it's you and I
    Em                        Am
And everyday fewer find their dreams
 because fewer try


[Chorus]
        F
This is real life, the only one we 
get to live
    Em                             
I remember being broke and thinking
 Am
 something gotta give
        F                          
This is real life, everything we do
              Em
 is legendary
                         Am
And we gon' do it to the day we in 
the cemetery
F
Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming
        Em                         
Used to feel like I was nothing, 
     Am
now my life has meaning
             F        G           
Said this is real life, goddamn 
      C
this is real life
                         F
I used to wonder what it feel like


[Scratches]
Everything I seen, made me 
                Em Am
everything I am
F
Everything I do, I'm a man behind 
mine
           Em                Am
Throw your hands in the air, stand 
behind mine
F                        
Everything I seen, made me 
                  Em Am
everything I am
F G
  Stand behind mine
C
Everything I do, I'm a man behind 
mine
