The Only Thing Forever

Girl, for you I have a few plans I want to make you happy and be your new man But I can only promise today, Tomorrow may not come And the only thing forever is Wu-Tang Hip-Hop saved my life so it will always come first You'll understand if you've ever related to a verse played an album non stop and fell in love with an artist Studied everything they release, because their music helps you through the darkness I was bullied and made fun of at school for being the white dude Who listened to Wu gang, Nas, Rakim and Ice Cube But Hip-Hop inspired me and I love the artistry Having hopes of writing like Eminem, Tupac, Big Pun and Bone Thugs N Harmony I never cared about going out or watching TV Every week my pocket money would go on a Hip-Hop CD Hip-Hop provided me a key, when Depression didn't want to free me Music stayed by my side when I saw people leave me Grew up in foster care, so I would always feel sadness But I still remember the feeling I got when I first heard Illmatic Wu Tang's 36 chambers album is still one of my favourite albums to chill back with Marshall Mathers LP was the first album I bought and I still have it They said I'd be dead by 21 and said they'd see this kid fail That meant nothing when I listened to Ice-T, Rakim, Tupac and Big L Growing up I was always told that Hip-Hop is inappropriate and has a bad reputation But I learned more lessons from Hip-Hop than my school education Girl, for you I have a few plans I want to make you happy and be your new man But I can only promise today, Tomorrow may not come And the only thing forever is Wu-Tang
