Lyrics
0:01Yeah farewell uh uhh uhh
0:07Hey farewell
0:10All my ******farewell
0:15Fayettenam
0:22Look some ******let there dirt out
0:24Some ******keep it in 'em
0:25So when a man dies all his secrets go with him
0:28And fame a part of history no longer known
0:31Done did a lot of dirt I'll bury with me when I'm gone
0:34When my story's told how will they tell it
0:36Will they say I was a giver or will they say I was selfish
0:39Will they say I was a sinner or pretend I was a saint
0:42Will I go down as a winner whats the picture they gon paint
0:45Wouldn't say that I'm a quitter that's one thing I know I ain't ain't
0:48Will they tarnish will they taint
0:49Glorify me overthink say they know me say I'm great
0:52Say I'm phoney I was fake
0:53Say the things about me they never told me to my face
0:56I was loved I was hated
0:58Just a *****with a dream
0:59I'm a liar I was honest I was all of these things
1:02When I'm gone let em talk
1:04They discussing who I am
1:05When they bury me just know I was nothing but a man
1:08Wasn't nothin' but a man
1:10This for ******climbin' heavens stairwell
1:13Yeah hey farewell
1:16Yeh hey farewell
1:18This for ******climbin' heavens stairwell
1:22I pray you farewell
1:25I bid you farewell
1:28Yeah ey farewell
1:30Yeah yeah
1:32If I should die Lord this here is my will
1:34Reincarnate a *****send me right back to the Ville
1:37Let me relive my younger days just once again
1:39Reenact my memories from every friend to every sin
1:42Keeping demons buried in my closet
1:44But yet I put in work like a deposit on my bank account
1:47My eyes lit while I think about my childhood now I'm blanking out
1:50Those were truly my best days
1:52The only thing I had to stress was how the hell to get laid
1:55Gradually turn into me stressin' how the hell to get paid
1:58Been making songs so long now how the hell they get played
2:00Ok I'm blowing up quickly
2:02I guess the flow is sickly
2:03But yet I can't forget my past and hope it won't forget me
2:06Got good grades but age can't stop strays so pray for me
2:10Pour liquor for my ******but hey don't wait for me
2:12Cause I'm trying to cheat death she had to bury my a*s
2:15You know the cliche lifes a *****well I'm gon marry that a*s
2:18And sign a preinup
2:19Think back to when we tore the skating rink up
2:21Rapping and we scrapping we got older hit the teen club
2:24Gave mean mugs to ******but we winked to all the girls
2:27Then we went back to the crib thinking we had saw the World
2:30No way came a long way from having mom chauffer
2:33Its hard to think these h*es at some point were so pure
2:36But now we play the game when its over send me back
2:39I swear I'm not gon change a thing
2:40I swear I'm not gon change a thing
2:42This for them ******climbin' heavens stairwell
2:45Yeah hey farewell
2:49I pray you ******farewell
2:51This for ******climbin' heavens stairwell
2:55Hey farewell hey farewell
