Forever Young
Crosby Stills Nash & Young Lyrics

Rai younger than ever
I, Rai, am in the prime of my youth

(Red blooded African Rasta)
I proudly represent my African heritage and Rastafarianism

(I'm a young nigga trying to get it faster)
I am a young individual striving to achieve success quickly

(A young nigga trying to get it faster)
As a youth, I am eager to accomplish my goals rapidly

(I'm a young nigga, Rasta)
I am both youthful and embrace the Rastafarian culture

(You know I'm a Rasta)
It is clear that I am a devoted Rastafarian

(Young nigga Rasta)
As a young person, I am also a Rastafarian

Yeah
Expressing agreement or emphasis

Young Rai stitched on my hat got it fitted
I proudly wear a hat with 'Young Rai' stitched on it, perfectly sized

I ain't been young in a minute
I have not experienced youth for a while

I'm trying to be young forever
I desire to maintain a youthful spirit indefinitely

I'm poppin', I'm cooking the kettle
I am vibrant and energetic, like a boiling kettle

I should've been born with feathers
I feel a deep connection to birds and their freedom

In both of my hands I took matters
I actively seized control of my life and circumstances

A young nigga trying to get it faster
I, as a young person, am determined to achieve success quickly

A red blooded African Rasta
I fully embody my African heritage and Rastafarian values

Spittin' more facts than a pastor
I share more truth and knowledge than even a religious leader

There's expensives stacked up in the hamper
I have valuable possessions piling up in my laundry basket

I'm a young nigga trying to get it faster
As a youth, my aim is to achieve success rapidly

I'm a young nigga
I am a young individual

Better stay up, stay young nigga
It is important to stay motivated and remain youthful

Different types of green like a drug dealer
I possess various forms of money, reminiscent of a drug dealer's variety

Different types of bread, I need more not less
I desire different forms of wealth, always seeking more

I protect the queens like I was playing chess
I safeguard and support women as if I were playing a strategic game of chess

The only thing that gets to me is money
Money is the sole source of worry or concern for me

I don't care what a critic says
I pay no attention to the opinions of critics

Always kill my opponent, I slit the neck
I metaphorically defeat my adversaries, ensuring their defeat is comprehensive

You can't walk my shoes, I really fit them best
No one can fully understand or handle the challenges I face; I am most suited to overcome them

Need my dresser to look like a treasure chest
I want my wardrobe to resemble a chest filled with valuable treasures

Need my cousins to live the best, that's because
It is important to me that my relatives experience the highest quality of living, and that's why

I got a goal and nobody can stop me
I have a clear objective, and no one has the power to hinder me

I save all the kids in the cage like Harambe
I metaphorically rescue and try to protect vulnerable children, like the late gorilla Harambe

Can't tell the difference between me and the Milky Way
When I gaze at my reflection, I see myself as majestic and limitless as the vastness of the Milky Way galaxy

When I look in the mirror I stargaze
Gazing at my reflection is like admiring the stars in the night sky

Red blooded Rasta, there is no mistake
I am a true and devoted Rastafarian; my identity is unmistakable

When I walk in the room they know that I'm the darkest
Upon entering a room, it is evident that I possess the deepest skin tone

I'm always hitting my target
I consistently achieve my goals with precision

When I see beef I hit bullseyes, that nigga arches
Whenever I encounter conflicts, I swiftly and accurately strike at the root cause, leaving no room for retaliation

Where did you find him, that nigga the hardest
People wonder where I came from, as I am recognized as one of the most formidable individuals

I'm trying to get it the fastest
I aspire to acquire success at the quickest pace possible

I couldn't be friends with no fucking tortoise
I refuse to associate with slow-paced individuals or anyone lacking ambition

My past life was probably on Mars right before this
I speculate that in a previous existence, I resided on Mars just before being present in my current life

I'm like Chuck, I'm cheesing, killing for tokens
Similar to Chuck Norris, I am constantly smiling and thriving, always earning rewards for my accomplishments

Only get head from the women with chokers
I solely engage in intimate encounters with women who wear chokers as an accessory

That nigga flexing, but that nigga bogus
Although that person flaunts their wealth and success, they are deceptive and dishonest

All that cash in your wallet, I almost stole it
Upon seeing the large sum of money in someone's wallet, I briefly considered taking it

Gotta stay away from the sinning
I must avoid engaging in immoral or sinful behavior

I gotta stay away from the sinning
It is essential for me to distance myself from any wrongdoing

I gotta move independent
I must be self-reliant and act independently

Cuz all these niggas is not understanding
Most people fail to comprehend or grasp my mindset and motivations

Keep me a stick like a granny
I always carry a weapon, similar to how an elderly person might rely on a walking stick

Keep me a cane like candy
I possess a cane, akin to how someone might carry candy as a treat

I do not care about the fame
Celebrity status holds no importance or value to me

All I wanted was some Benjis
My sole desire was to acquire wealth, specifically US $100 bills colloquially known as 'Benjamins'

They come in handy
Having Benjamins is advantageous and useful in various situations

I'm trying to be young forever
My utmost aspiration is to maintain a youthful essence indefinitely

Yeah, Rai young forever
I, Rai, will forever remain youthful

I'm trying to get it the fastest
I strive to achieve success at the most rapid pace possible
