Grammy Song
SonReal Lyrics

They can say what they like
Others can express their opinions freely

They can say what they like
Others can express their opinions freely

But you can live forever
Despite what others say, one can live on in memory and impact

Yes, you can live forever
Reiterating the previous line

I know not what I do, sorry, yeah
Acknowledging past mistakes and ignorance

It was as easy as a phone call, yeah
Regretting missed opportunities to connect with loved ones

I get so nervous when the light's on, yeah
Feeling anxious in the spotlight or when vulnerable

I'd rather turn 'em off and go hard, oh god
Preferring to persevere in the dark and overcome one's fears

I always thought that you would be around, yeah
Assuming one's loved ones will always be around

To let me show you what I dreamed about, yeah
Wanting to share one's ambitions and aspirations with loved ones

Now it seems that it's just too late
Regretting not taking the opportunity to share with loved ones before it was too late

And I's just to busy to say "Hey, how you doin?"
Being too preoccupied to prioritize important conversations with loved ones

Or "I love ya" or "I miss ya"
Not being able to express affection to loved ones

Give you a hug or get to kiss ya
Missing physical intimacy with loved ones

The sweetest things in life come from a picture
Memories of the past can bring joy and comfort

But we can never snap 'em from the bleachers
We can't relive or recreate past moments from a distance

So I face my fears, let me tell you this
Confronting fears and reflecting on important lessons learned

I know it's impossible to turn back time
Understanding that time cannot be reversed

But ones like you never leave my heart
Loved ones leave a lasting impact and continue to be cherished

So when this song play, that mean you can never die
This song serves as a tribute and reminder of loved ones who have passed

Never die, never die, no
Reiterating the idea that loved ones never truly leave us

I get so nervous when the light's on
Repeating an earlier line about vulnerability and anxiety

Don't always feel like I'm the man
Struggling with self-doubt and insecurity

I always act like I can do it myself
Putting on a facade of strength and independence

But right now, I think I could use a hand
Admitting a need for support and help from others

And yep, this be our happy song, yeah
This song is a celebration of life and loved ones

From up above, I know you'll rap along
Believing that loved ones who have passed are still with us in spirit

Mama gave me your bracelet, I wore it tight while I wrote it
Honoring a loved one who has passed and holding onto a meaningful item

So I don't need a plaque to go call this my Grammy song
This song is not about winning awards, but rather about honoring loved ones

Gold chains, man, I get it from my grandma
Celebrating family heritage and taking pride in one's roots

Outfits like an early MC Hammer
Taking fashion risks and expressing oneself creatively

Witty attitude but always taught me manners
Balancing humor and humility

Cooking pasta while she giving shit to grandpa, hold up
Remembering humorous and endearing moments with loved ones

Help me face my fears
Asking for support and encouragement

Tryna write a song about the shit on my mind
Using music as a form of expression and therapy

Ones like you never leave my heart
Affirming the lasting impact of loved ones who have passed

So when this song plays, you can never ever die
Reiterating the idea that this song serves as a tribute and reminder of loved ones who have passed

Never ever ever die, no
Reiterating the idea that loved ones never truly leave us

They can say what they like
Repeating an earlier line about the freedom of expression

They can say what they like
Repeating an earlier line about the freedom of expression

You can live forever
Reiterating the idea that loved ones can live on in memory and impact

Yes, you can live forever
Reiterating the idea that loved ones can live on in memory and impact
