Nothing Gold Can Stay - Oliver Francis

They say that all I rap about is Bathing Ape and smoking weed

But last year, man, that shit was just a dream for me

And all these rappers act like this just don’t mean shit to me

But understand that I appreciate what I achieve

Headed to the coast, I propose a toast

Got gorillas on my coat, just might pull up in the ghost

With them butterfly doors going way up

Asking 'bout a feature, little boy, you better pay up, straight up

No, I ain’t look up to nobody

I ain’t in the club 'cause I’m a home-body, ooh

I’m just smokin', watching Netflix

Go get you some money, boy, stop crying 'bout your ex-bitch, ooh, yah

And if it’s meant to be then let it happen, ayy

Diamonds on me dancing, yeah I feel like Michael Jackson

If you headed home from work, stuck in five o’clock traffic

Just remember, I’m the proof that if you want it, you can have it, ayy

And they say, «Oli, you deserve it.»

I crack that Cigarillo then I’m rollin' up that purple

They sleepin' on your boy

I think they sippin' too much syrup

While you was getting faded

Homie I was out here working, yah, yah, yah

'Cause thing’s 'gon change

And nothing gold can stay

I’m back to my old ways

That’s Henny with Bombay

You know it, I’m always

'Gon be here for my mates

Tomorrow’s another day

So tonight we 'gon celebrate

There are no guarantees in life

Not for the present, nor for the future

There are no guarantees in life

Not for the present, nor for the future
