Tory Lanez - Gold (Rmx) lyrics
rate meI remember I was 9
When my brother used to rhyme
Used to see him spit, switch flows, and hold nines
Seen the same bro catch case and hold time
All that made me wanna do is continue his prime
As a young and all I wanted was to be that nigga
All they did was look at you
And be like "he that nigga"
Older brother, older son of mother
One I would look up to
Hoping that one day
You'd be the one that I turn into
I figured it was just a figment of imagination
The magic made this moment happen
Look at me growin'
Just that after all these years they had you waitin'
In that cell while niggaz givin' you hell
I knew you was still basic
And when them cells close
And spite cover your eyes
I just pray God let light cover your skies
Hope your inner stressin'
Don't mess with you inside
Keep rollin' your head high
With some blessings in the sky my man
Things don't always go
Always go your way
I know everything that shine it ain't gold
And we might think we're close
But even we can be far away
I know, everything that shine it ain't gold
Everything that shine it ain't gold
It ain't gold, it ain't gold
Everything that shine it ain't gold
I remember I was 9 when my cousin used to grime
His Rover GS 100 and jhe enjoyed his number nines
Back in the era of hustlers it was a different time
Money, drugs and violence
Plus niggaz droppin’ dimes
That’’ all the time this was back
You try to shift me from the game
Instead of giving me the truth
You had this balance and the same responsibility and youth
You said that niggaz that you feed
Will be the niggaz that you root
I don’t feel like the wrong questioning
And what I don’t understand
The night the shots were on
You lost the ability to stand
I think it’s fucking dismissive
This is a part of God’s plan
And I don’t care about what they say to me
You’ll always be the man
When the clouds roll in
All your memories are again
People sayin’’they love you
But they don’t treat you the same
Man you always used to tell me
That everybody’s gonna change
Let’s pray for some sunshine
But keep a look out for rain
And we might think we're close
But even we can be far away
I know, everything that shine it ain't gold
Everything that shine it ain't gold
It ain't gold, it ain't gold
Everything that shine it ain't gold
