Welcome To Forever Lyrics - Jon Bellion

This is real life, the only one we get to live 

I remember being broke and thinking something gotta give 

This is real life, everything we do is legendary 

And we gon' do it to the day we in the cemetery 

Real life, it feel like I'm dreaming 

Used to feel like I was nothing, now my life has meaning 

Said this is real life, god damn this is real life 

Yeah, I've been fiending for this moment 

I've been dreaming 'bout this moment 

I guess this is how it feel to have everything you ever wanted 

Writing these records like a dissertation 

While the fans go crazy from anticipation 

Damn, nine years that's a lot of patiences 

And now I'm looking at my idols and feeling adjacent 

It's hell of a long way from back in the basement 

Looking at hip-hop tryna find my placement 

I bought my first pair of Jordans at 22 

Same year I bought a crib too 

Now my face in magazines I used to flip through 

And my music on all the sites I used to sift through 

Remember meeting Nas for the first time 

Shook his hand and he started quoting my lines 

Said he a fan, god damn this is my time 

I'mma get it, I'mma do it till we prime time 

I told him every single day that I be at it 

In the studio recording like an addict 

He said that real hip-hop shit I had it 

Thinking to myself, "Damn, man, you made Illmatic"

Can You Guess The Song By The Emojis? 

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Watch Will Smith perform to iconic song 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin 

I used wonder what it feel like 

Aight, I guess we back again 

With another verse of about how much I'm black again 

You don't like to blame God for my packaging 

Bringing up my race, don't call me a white rapper then 

Damn, they judging me by my skin tone 

Instead of my talent, man these motherfuckers been wrong 

But it's all good I just thought I'd address it 

And spell it out for people so they can finally assess it 

This is dedicated to anyone with a dream 

And a realization of what following it means 

Breaking the cycle and not following your genes 

That perfect moment when your logic intervenes 

And let you know that everything ain't always what it seems 

But if you really looking, I promise you'll find your dreams 

This is everything I ever wanted, half of y'all won't get it 

The other will probably laugh and wonder how I did it 

I just spit it from my mind, one word at the time 

Take everything I'm going through and put it in a rhyme 

I'd be lying if I said I didn't have a lot of weight upon my shoulders 

But this is my therapy as I flow this 

Spilling out my heart, I just hope somebody notice 

I've been real from the start and you motherfuckers noticed 

Once my name elevated that's when the fame escalated 

But on the real, I've grown accustomed to the stares 

People watching every move I make like it was theirs 

All up in my business, and even in my personal affairs 

Now, I know I talk a lot of game, but I ain't trynna sell you 

Cause honestly, I could show you better than I could tell you 

And even though there's been moments when everything have fell through 

We kept it moving, assuming even the greatest fail too 

I swear this business shit is do or die 

I never contemplated suicide, I'm too alive 

In front of thousands, but I'm talking like it's you and I 

And everyday fewer find their dreams because fewer try 

Photos 

Everything I seen, made me everything I am 

Everything I do, I'm a man behind mine 

Said, welcome to forever 

Welcome to... forever...
