Taking Forever

Tyrese

[Intro]
(For, for, for)
(For, for, for)
Yo, yo
Yo, check this out
There's alot of cats out here tryna get a deal
There's alot of cats out here makin' promises and
Never follow through wit' 'em
I was in the same boat, I feel ya, yeah
So we gon' reverse this
And ask them how they would feel, yeah

How would you like it if somebody came along
Claimin' they money's long and they wanna put you on
All they doin' is playin' with you
They got the money and the deal
But they won't give it to you

All you're tryna do is get this money
A crib for your mami, a sample for my honey
Come through the hood with your five or your six
Or some twenty-one's with some fake niggas on your dick

1 - Why should I keep on struggling
And goin' through hard times
Somebody tell me, where do we go
Cuz at this point I can't give up
But it's taking (Forever, forever, for)

Can stay hungry 'til your ribs start showin'
Where your next piece of change comin' from you're not knowing
To your friends you're always beggin'
Now you ain't cool
You find yourself doin' things you'd never do
Like stealin' (Robbin')
Man you better chill
Damn, I gotta keep it real
I let the pen do the talkin', let them haters do the walkin'
I pray for the day the word gets out, my album's droppin'

Repeat 1
Repeat 1

[Rap]
This is what I tell my cats
Yo, I see alot of cats on TV with record deals
They got a click or a entourage with no skill
Everybody who hear me be like damn he can flow
I guess it's not about my skills, It's about who I don't know
But that's cool, I'mma deal with you haters
I'mma be way platinum plus, on the regular
Whoever want a beef with me
I'm tryna stack these figures, no time for hatin' niggas

Repeat 1
Repeat 1

All I gotta do is keep on goin'
The man upstairs got a plan
I gotta keep on believin'
I just wanna get away someday
Every time I look up and try to smile
Something goes wrong to try to bring me down
