Never
The Roots Feat. Patty Crash Lyrics

Street dreams, close your eyes
Let your imagination run wild and visualize a world where anything is possible

Take a bite to the memory
Savor the moments that make life worth living and memorize them so they can be cherished forever

Street dreams, this is the moment
This is the time to chase your dreams and make them a reality, to not let time slip away before it's too late

The moment that feels like forever
This moment is so special that it feels like it will last forever, and that feeling should be treasured

This is the end to where I began
This is the end of the journey, reaching a place that was once the starting point

And it feels like forever
The moment is so powerful that it feels like it will never end

They say time flies down from sky and says never
Time is constantly moving forward and can never be reversed, so make the most of each moment

I look down, all I see is never
Looking ahead, the future seems uncertain and daunting, as if time is standing still

And all I know is all I know
Despite the uncertainty of the future, all that is known is what can be controlled in the present moment

I was born faceless in an oasis
Born into a world of unknowns, where one has to learn to survive and adapt to their surroundings

Folks disappear here and leave no traces
The world can be a cruel and unforgiving place, where people can disappear without a trace and be forgotten

Waitin' on Superman losing all patience
Hoping for a savior or someone to come to the rescue, when all that can be relied on is oneself

Gettin' wasted on an everyday basis
Escaping reality and drowning out the pain through self-destructive behavior

I'm stuck here can't take a vacation
Feeling trapped and unable to break free from the struggles of life, unable to take a break or catch a break

This is reality mane
This is the harsh and unforgiving reality of life, a struggle that one has to face head on

Ain't no surprise I've been bangin' without any mane
Fighting and struggling to survive, without any support or help from others

What is this gotta be brave
Questioning what it means to be brave in a world where survival is the ultimate challenge

When into the night I'm going to go quietly mane
When death ultimately comes, it will come quietly, and one has to be prepared to face it

Life is a bitch and then you live
Life can be hard and difficult to navigate, but it's important to keep living and fighting despite the challenges

Until one day by death you're found
One's journey in life will ultimately come to an end with death

I tried to keep both of my feet on the ground
Trying to remain grounded and humble in the midst of life's struggles

But I know my head is surrounded by clouds
Despite trying to stay grounded, the mind can still be clouded with confusion and uncertainty

Spirallin' down, destined to drown
Falling deeper into despair and feeling powerless to prevent it

Forever is just a collection of nows
The concept of forever is just an accumulation of present moments, so make the most of each one

Off on my own, nowhere is my home
Feeling like an outsider and not belonging anywhere, as if home is a place that doesn't exist

Approaching infinities fork in the road
Life is full of choices, and there are many different paths that one can take, some leading to infinite possibilities

When I was young something I often was told
As a child, hearing advice and wisdom from others about how to navigate life

It's not a bargain if it costs you your soul
Making choices that compromise one's values and true self are not worth it in the end

Costs you your pride, caution aside
Making choices that go against one's pride and self-respect, without any thought to the consequences

I'm gone with the wind and I'm long for the ride
Going with the flow and not trying to control every aspect of life, leaving oneself open to new experiences

Wish I could rest and open my eyes
Feeling tired and wishing for a moment of peace and rest, to be able to see things more clearly

But time ain't finna fly down from the sky
Time is constantly moving forward and can't be stopped or reversed

A place where the lonely love
Finding beauty in solitude and learning to love oneself even in moments of loneliness

Not another soul's there, only us
In moments of solitude, the only company one has is themselves

I woke with a tear drop
Waking up feeling emotional and overcome with feelings of sadness or grief

All I know is what I know
Despite everything, all that is certain is what has been experienced and learned in the past

It's all I know
Despite the uncertainty of the future and the unknowns ahead, holding onto what is known is what provides comfort and stability
