All Things Go lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yo, I had to reinvent, I put the V in vent

I put the heat in vents, man I've been competin' since

I look beyond what people sayin', and I see intent

Then I just sit back and decipher what they really meant

Cherish these nights, cherish these people

Life is a movie, but there will never be a sequel

And I'm good with that, as long as I'm peaceful

As long as 7 years from now, I'm taking my daughter to preschool

Cherish these days, man do they go quick

Just yesterday, I swear it was '06

Ten years ago, that's when you proposed

I looked down, yes, I suppose

[Hook]

All things go, all things go

All things go, all things go

I feel one minute, yeah, we got it then it's gone

While we keep waiting for a moment to live for

So can't nobody ever tell me that I'm wrong

Cause I'mma ride out with you, still the night is young

And we keep goin', we go

(We go, we go) We wake back up and do it all again

(We know, we know) Say fuck the world, we ridin' til the end

When all is said and done, look what we've become

I just want you to know that I did it for you

[Verse 2]

I lost my little cousin to a senseless act of violence

His sister said he wanted to stay with me, but I didn't invite him

Why didn't he ask, or am I just buggin'?

Cause since I got fame, they don't act the same

Even though they know that I love 'em

Family ties broken before me

Niggas tryna kill him, he ain't even call me

And that's the reflection of me, yes I get it, I get it was all me

I pop a pill and remember the look in his eyes, the last day he saw me

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

Lemme make this clear, I'm not difficult, I'm just 'bout my business

I'm not into fake industry parties, and fake agendas

Rock with people for how they make me feel, not what they give me

Even the ones that hurt me the most, I still show forgiveness

I love my mother more than life itself, and that's a fact

I'd give it all, if somehow I could just rekindle that

She never understands, why I'm so overprotective

The more I work, the more I feel like, somehow they're neglected

I want 'Caiah to go to college, just to say "We did it!"

My child with Aaron, would've have been sixteen, any minute

So in some ways I feel like 'Caiah, is the both of them

It's like he's 'Caiah's little angel, looking over him

And I know Jelani will always love me, and I'll always love him

And I'm just his little sister, not Nicki Minaj when I'm around him

Gee we did it, let's leave this imprint

Just finished writing, this is The Pinkprint

[Hook]
