Forever
Moby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gang, gang, gang

They talkin' down on my name, don't let 'em run off with the name
Man I just run with the gang, A$AP boys came with the flame
Gang, gang, they talkin' down on the gang
They wanna rep with the name, but this ain't no regular name
Gang, gang, they tryna run with the name
I might pull up with three K's, but I do not fuck with no Klan
Gang, gang, them boys not flexin' the same
I'm done with adjustin' to fame, pull up on your set, leave a stain
Gang, gang, I tell her come fuck with the gang
I tell 'em don't fuck with the gang
It's time to fuck up the whole game!

Come fuck with the Mob, shout out to the Lords and the Gods
In love with my bitch 'cause she bi
My ice like the stars, I tell that bitch, "Cover your eyes
'Cause smokin' with me, you go blind"
She losin' her mind, we kiss to Frank Ocean and Blonde
Convincin' my bitch to go blonde
Was born in the dark, I can't even open my blinds
On Yams and that's word to my mom
Margiela Mad Man with cases I'm still tryna beat
A bunch of shit from a long time ago
The bigger they are, the harder they fall
Like dominos, nigga, Geronimos
When it's my time to go, adios, vamonos
Flacko no Dominicano but eat the tostones with platanos
Dealing with life and its highs and lows
I'm just pimpin' like I'm supposed
I guess it's called livin', shit I suppose
I'm on my live alone, die VLONE
You talk about spending or buyin' clothes
I'm 'bout my business but I'm alone
I still had the vision when I was broke, fuckin' on bitches and foreign hoes
Flyin' out womens to borin' shows, I pray to God I don't overdose
I put A$AP on my tat, I put New York on the map
I put the gang on the flame, they gon' remember the name
They robbin' boys for the chain, I got Goyard by the sack
I got the boof by the pack, I fucked your boo in her back

Gang, gang, them boys not flexing the same
I'm done with adjusting to fame, pull up on your set, leave a stain
Gang, gang, I tell her come fuck with the gang
I tell 'em don't fuck with the gang
It's time to fuck up the whole game!
(Game, game, game, game)

Gang, gang
They tryna front on the gang, they gon' remember my name
True to truth somehow (gang, gang)
But never truly lied at all, then and now
They tryna front on the gang
Truth somehow
Gang, A$AP boys come with the flame
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now

True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
In my dreams, I'm dying all the time
True to truth somehow
But never truly lied at all, then and now
Then I wake, it's kaleidoscopic mind
But never truly lied at all
But never truly lied at all, then and now




I never meant to hurt you (then and now)
I never meant to lie

Oceanographer Radio

Two simple places
We wanted to go
Two simple things
You wanted to know

Everything around
I could not see
I wish I'd known
How much you loved me
Oh,
we could feel this way forever
[2x]

I watched the sun,
cause it touches you while you sleep
You gave me something,
that I wanted to keep

I see you smile you smile like a little child
And hold you crying when it all goes wild

Oh
We could feel this way forever
[6x]___♫

Tu eres mi Padre Eterno 🙌

Hermosa melodía u sobre todo cuando se escucha su linda voz Moby👍

Jorge Anguas

Once Moby found his Mojo, he could do no wrong. This is the third or fourth CD with not a bad/uninteresting tune on it. Keep listening.

Walter de Sousa Freire

As música do Moby transpassa fronteiras, como ventos suaves que vem do oceano e chegam refrescando a alma aqui no trópicos quentes e tristes da América do Sul.

BEE KOOL

I found this album at the library when I was in college in the early 2000s. I used to play this on my way to night classes while driving across town at sunset. Perfect soundtrack.

Humble Fighter
