jack rootes - nothing lasts forever كلمات أغنية

[intro]

“time doesn’t wait for anybody, you know. it’s like… everything we hold dear to us… will slip through the cracks eventually.”

[verse 1]

i remember days where it felt like summer’s never ending
only worries of mine was homework and school attendence
the world had no conflict, things were running smoothly
free time consisting of video games and pixar movies
when staying well behaved was my only criteria
when our phones had no apps for social media
i used to think that life was good, i had no bills to spend
but then it folded like a letter that was never sent

now look at me, i’m nearly 30 with a beard now
the friends i used to grow up with are not here now
they say time flies, i didn’t understand the phrase
’till i opened my eyes and the past became a haze
i think about the people and the places that i’m missing
and every now and then, i find myself just reminiscing
i realise it now when i think of moments lost:
that every crown comes with a cost
nothing lasts forever…

[hook]
nothing lasts forever…
we should try and make it better…
nothing lasts forever…
so let’s cherish it together…

[verse 2]

i’ve seen some famous folk come and go throughout the years
each with their own goals, vices, styles and fears
some walk away with their fame at the end of it
others break their nails, clinging on to be relevant
used to be makin’ hit songs, used to be fillin’ arenas
now they’re wrapping drama ’round their names like fajitas
kanye wildin’ out for some media mentions
sam smith showin’ skin just to get attention

clout’s a h_ll of a drug and everybody wants a hit
they’ll do anything to stay on top, even start sh_t
fans move on quickly, that’s what some do not see
they’re today’s trends, but can be tomorrow’s memes
desire for validation can cause a spiral to h_ll
not excluding myself, i’ve got addicted as well
i admit, fame would be nice for me to take hold
but that sh_t’s not my main goal
nothing lasts forever…
[hook]

[verse 3]

my grandfather died back in 2016
i wonder if his spirit’s still around with me
dan died months later, but i hear when his voice hums
in the dead of night whenever the pain comes
sometimes i ask who’s next, is it someone i love?
will it be a stranger i saw today on the bus?
we take life for granted, as if it cannot waste us
but if we died today, will heaven or h_ll await us?

’cause even the stars burn out and galaxies fade
and someday the universe will go and do the same
human lives can easily, fade away to r.i.p.’s
even the biggest leaves can fall from the highest trees
people play with danger day by day for their maddest schemes
’cause even tomorrow these days isn’t guranteed
that’s why i cherish every moment like a last letter
nothing lasts forever, so let’s make forever better

[hook]
