Laws, Dave Young - Never lyrics

I think it’s seventeen, graduation
Mom smilin' camera flashin', cap and gown
Everybody gather 'round
I got the car keys for the night, so excited
Tell my crew I’m headed out
I’m going to the battle now
They said you fuckin' crazy
Even if you make it through the door
Is getting kicked out worth all
Of them clappin' loud?
That’s when I knew at that moment
We’d never be closer than handshakes
And watching our drunk friends passin' out
And now they picking up my homie’s jewelry
Who the designated driver, you or me?
Either way
I’m headed out ‘cause my verse is sick
You should tag along
It will be worth the trip
Never, but you never came with me
Never, who would’ve thought you’d forget me?
Never, not in my wildest dreams
And I’ve been gone for a while it seems
Never, but you never came with me
Never, who would’ve thought you’d forget me?
Never, not in my wildest dreams
And I’ve been gone for a while it seems

I used to come home late at night
My mother silhouette comin' from
A cigarette light
That represented a glimmer of hope
When she asked me
If I had met any connects when actually
I was at a place with a pool table
And a sad old man on a stool stable
Tryin' to get it in before last call
House DJ cut my mic too early and
He fuckin' up my last bar
Oh, this is the last draw
‘cause I been passed y’all
Why you tryin' to keep a great
White in a glass jar?
I’m about to start my own shit
Dame and dash y’all call me Dr lecter
Lemme go and take my mask off
So full of hope
Trekkin' to the record station
Long story short, you can bet they played ‘em
And there was a full house listenin'
But they wasn’t smilin' cause
They was already listenin'

Never, but blame yourself ’cause you
Never came with me
Never, who would’ve thought you’d forget me?
Never, not in my wildest dreams
And I’ve been gone for a while it seems
Never, but you never came with me
Never, who would’ve thought you’d forget me?
Never, not in my wildest dreams
And I’ve been gone for a while it seems

I know my role
New fresh face with the oldest soul
Never satisfied with bein' local though
Got known as the kid with the golden flow
With a diamond mind, these rhymes are mine
Got me lots of time with a concubine
Can’t even tell the tale 'bout
Bein' on the road
‘Cause the cats I know like stop the line
God's honest i was in a tele with a
Goddess with a kush blunt
Got it? She told me that she
Needed me to make her promise
Whenever my fifteen come, I won’t stop it
And now I got it in a chokehold
Your man was a king but he isn’t no more
VMA’s came lookin' at the game like two dope
Boys in a tinted Volvo
Sittin' in a town with a gate around it
Got the game plan, gonna rape the process
Used to hide the fact I'm
Great to avoid the hate
But now, I’m 'bout to make it obvious
'Cause when I look in the mirror
I finally like what I see
They see 'em and they tryna hear it
It isn’t surprisin' to me
I will never be back to chill at
The spots I cut my teeth at
I know me leavin' gonna make it harder
But all I have is moments you
Would’ve been a part of oh me, oh my
I’m always alone and I don’t know why
I’m tellin' you
It ain't like the boy don’t try
But the number of names in my phone don't lie

Never, but y’all never came with me
Never, who would’ve thought y'all forget me?
Never, not in my wildest dreams
And I’ve been gone for a while it seems
Never, but y’all never came with me
Never, who would’ve thought y'all forget me?
Never, not in my wildest dreams
And I’ve been gone for a while it seems
And where my horns at? yeah
Where my horns at?
