TOGETHER
KAYTRANADA Lyrics

It's hard to let it go
It's difficult to move on and forget about the past.

Let it flow away and never mind it
Don't hold onto it, let it go and don't worry about it anymore.

It seems so much more
It feels like a bigger issue than it really is.

So intense
Emotions are strong and overwhelming.

So you never find a way to forgive, to forget, to be unconditional
It's difficult to forgive, forget, or be forgiving in general due to the intensity of the situation.

We don't have to fight no more
We don't need to argue or have conflict anymore.

This isn't the time to be tumbling on the floor
This isn't the time for chaos or disruptions.

We just have to walk through that door together
We just need to move forward together and leave the past behind us.

Post the green at your momma's house
Putting money aside for your future or your family's future.

Nigga need money, money the root of your momma's house
Money is necessary for survival and in some ways, becomes the foundation of your family's well-being.

Momma need food, your momma she claim from her future spouse
Your mom needs basic necessities and expects them to come from their future partner.

Why do I do the things that I do on your momma's blouse?
Why do I engage in harmful behaviors and actions, especially towards someone close like your mother?

Don't wake the baby, daddy
Be quiet and don't disrupt the sleeping baby.

And daddy ain't round enough
The father figure isn't present enough in the child's life.

Watching my baby grow up alone in her momma's house
The father is unable to be present and watch their child grow up because of their absence.

You're too busy writing these rhymes
You're too focused on your music career to pay attention to your family.

I never lie in the rhymes
I don't fabricate or make up things in my lyrics.

I rhyming harder and harder whilst flipping niggas for dimes
I'm working hard to improve my craft and make money, even if it requires doing other things on the side.

And she finer than my exes
The person I'm currently with is better looking or more attractive than my previous partners.

Pistol flapping gun totting and love making's heaven
The excitement of gang violence and having sex makes life feel heavenly.

Still be here tonight and hope to make it to heaven
I hope to continue living and eventually make it to the afterlife.

Seven mentions seven
The number seven is brought up repeatedly.

And my momma came a-raring
My mother came with force and energy, ready to fight or take action.

And my momma holds a sanctuary
My mother is a safe space or a place of refuge for me.

I got new goals, got new wishes
I have new aspirations and dreams for the future.

Be a better father stop calling my women bitches
I want to improve as a father and stop using derogatory terms towards women.

Red gold, green gold, gang do it right
The gang is successful and doing things the correct way with their involvement in making money.

And we never do it wrong, now we seeing better days
The gang is successful and experiencing positive progress and a brighter future.
