In these lyrics from Big K.R.I.T.'s song "Justin Scott," the concept of forever is explored. The repetition of the word "forever" emphasizes its significance and suggests that it holds a timeless quality. The song opens with the affirmation that forever is indeed a mighty long time, indicating that the duration of this period is vast and seemingly endless.

It implies a desire to hold on to something or someone indefinitely, suggesting that the songwriter is reflecting on the fleeting nature of time and the transience of life. The repetition further emphasizes the idea that forever is a concept that holds great weight and importance.
The phrase "Forever is a mighty long time" can also be interpreted as a philosophical reflection on the human experience.

Over the past two years, I've lost many important people in my life. First it was my brother to a prison cell, then two months after that I lost my aunt and grandma to cancer, three weeks apart from each other. I spent the next year mourning them, and then out of nowhere one of my closest cousins lost his life to a freak skateboarding accident. This song, as much as it makes me cry out my soul thinking of them, it truly helps in the long run. Thank you so much for this masterpiece KRIT. It truly heals my heart. Never change.
