[Verse 1: Everett Champion]
Writing this, I’m scared that I won’t get to
Thanks to everyone, I’m glad that I met you
One time around, I know I don't get 2
To every single friend, I've been meaning to text you
But I’m blessed to, feel so heavenly (yup!)
I been thinking bout this shit since 17
Light a bonfire whenever you gon' remember me
I’ve been trying to make it over hills like Beverly
Every problem I have, I let it go
Cause tomorrow, I swear that you never know
Know this is a side that I never really show
But what will life be if I ever gotta go?
Like woah
And I'm feeling like halfway
Halfway to reaching my last day
I’m leading all the kids through the pathway
And make every verse, stand as tall as my last name
[Pre-Hook: Everett Champion]
I been working way too hard for you
I been working way too hard for you
I been swerving way too far for you
And I learned that I’m way too smart for you
And these moments, they passing by
Thinking out loud, I’m asking why?
I been working way too hard for you
I been working way too hard
[Verse 2: Everett Champion]
27 Club, I was scared about 21
Scared that I can’t pass my last name to my son
Scared that Savannah will find another one
Who isn’t in a rush, man who’s always gotta run
And I know that she’ll hate this song
I know that she’ll skip it when this shit comes on
I can’t blame her, but I’m scared
If I make it to the end and she ain’t there (she ain't there)
And this is for Mom
Always taking care of me, relieving me, being calm
And this is for my Dad, watching football on Sundays
I'm thinking to myself, I might not be here one day
And I'm scared that I’ll never get to say this
I’m scared that no one will ever play this
I don’t wanna be a name in a playlist
I wanna be remembered as one of the greatest
(Greatest, greatest, greatest, greatest)
I wanna be remembered as one of the greatest
(Greatest, greatest, greatest, greatest)
I wanna be remembered as one of the greatest
And it’s hard to make this
I’m running out of time, and I’m out of patience
I’ll be mad if I never get to say this
Thank you to the people who made this
[Pre-Hook: Everett Champion]
I been working way too hard for you
I been working way too hard for you
I been swerving way too far for you
And I learned that I’m way too smart for you
And these moments, they passing by
Thinking out loud, I’m asking why?
I been working way too hard for you
I been working way too hard
[Bridge: Everett Champion]
Where do we go when we die?
What colour is it there?
Is there even a there?
How long will my greatest hits album be?
Will I be remembered?
Will I be considered too soon?
Will it make the news? Will it trend on Twitter?
What if that last show, is my last show?
Are there credits at the end of the movie or is it just black?
(Just black)
[Hook: Everett Champion]
Will I make it? Man, I don’t know
Know there’s places that I won’t go
If I leave, please just let me go
If I’m here, you better let me know
Will I make it? Man, I don’t know
Know there’s places that I won’t go
If I leave, please just let me go
If I’m here, you better let me know
Will I make it? Man, I don’t know
Know there’s places that I won’t go
If I leave, please just let me go
If I’m here, you better let me know
Will I make it? Man, I don’t know
Nah, nah, nah
I really don't know, I really don't know
And if I leave, please let me go
[Outro: Everett Champion]
Man I really don't know
I have no fucking idea
I really don't know
You know?
Yeah
I made this for y'all
I love you
Yeah
