Still My People

Yeah…

Time don’t stop, it just moves us slow (moves us slow)

Used to talk ‘bout forever, now we barely say hello (barely say hello)

But I still got love, even if we change lanes

No hard feelings, just grown pains (nah)

⸻

We was kids with the same dream, same block (same block)

Shootin’ hoops till the streetlights stopped (swish)

Late-night talks, plans we made

Now we all got lives that fade

You got your hustle, he found peace

She found love, I found release

And though we don’t hang like we did before

The memories still hit the core

(Ad-libs: “Yeah, it’s love still…” “Always will be…”)

⸻

It’s funny how the world keeps spinnin’

And we all find our own beginnings

But I still smile when I think of y’all

We had nothin’, but we had it all

⸻

Even if we drift, you still my people (you still my people)

Even from afar, the love stay equal (it stay equal)

Life got paths, and we all gon’ grow (we gon’ grow)

But the bond we built don’t let go (nah, it don’t let go)

Even when the calls fade, the texts slow down (slow down)

I still got your back if you in my town (always)

We might be walkin’ on separate roads

But real ones never get too old (never)

⸻

Remember that summer we thought we’d rule?

Now we all out here, learnin’ new schools

Some of us won, some of us fell

Some stories too deep to tell

But through the wins, through the pain and loss

We became who we are, no matter the cost

And if time ever bring us face to face

I hope we smile, not erase that space

(Ad-libs: “Yeah, I miss them days…” “But I’m proud of y’all…”)

⸻

I ain’t bitter, I ain’t mad

Just grateful for the times we had

We grew apart, but that’s okay

The love still here in a quiet way

Every laugh still play in my mind

Every late night still feel divine

⸻

Even if we drift, you still my people (you still my people)

Even from afar, the love stay equal (it stay equal)

Life got paths, and we all gon’ grow (we all gon’ grow)

But the bond we built don’t let go (nah)

So if you ever need me, you know the code (you know it)

Hit my line, I’ll pick up, no load (yeah)

We might be walkin’ on different roads

But real love never gets too old ❤️

⸻

Yeah… still my people

Distance can’t erase what’s equal

We all changin’, that’s how it go

But the love don’t fade — it just grows
