Loading...

[refrain]

when i was 17 my mother said to me
“don’t stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die”

when i was 17 my mother said to me
“don’t stop.. don’t stop..”

[verse]

don’t stop, huh?
they always say you ain’t mean enough
sit down you’re just a boy, you ain’t seen enough

ya’know what?
i think the world ain’t 17 enough
everybody in a rush trying to grow up+

i’m forever 17 wanna stay on the cusps
but i also wanna roll ya’ beacon out my cuff
so i just roll a rolly, sit back and puff
tryin’ plan it all out
oo+oo, man that’s tough

young and hot sippin’ vodka like sinatra
you could write the next phantom of the opera
you could push ya phantom to the oscars
don’t let the the hate destroy ya’ like it’s oscar de la hoya
cus’ you could pay ya’ rent like oscar de la renta

uh’
just tell ’em god sent ya’
but i ain’t talkin metaphors and christianity
i’m talkin real sh+t, talking universal energy

just please don’t let imagination die
you could live to rule the nations 17 years by (imagining.. imagining.. imagining)
[refrain]

when i was 17 my mother said to me
“don’t stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die”

when i was 17 my mother said to me
“don’t stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die”

[verse]

doin’ good in school man i do that sh+t for jobs
late nights on my mac though i do that sh+t for jobs
i do that sh+t for walt man, i do that sh+t for ‘ye man, i do that sh+t to ball man, i do it for the day+

uh+ my imagination dies
cuz’ that’ll be the day my daughter cries
when she sees 100,000 million people at my eulogy
won 100 million billion fans stayin’ true to we
“we” as in “c” “a” and that “d” “o”

uh’
that’s that everything i believe in
that’s that green turned to gold
it’s turn the thing’s i’m achieving
that’s the matter of perspective
deeper meaning we’re perceiving, uh’
[refrain]

(deeper meaning we’re perceiving, uh’)
(deeper meaning we’re perceiving, uh’)
(“we” as in “c” “a” and that “d” “o”)
(deeper meaning we’re perceiving, uh’)
(“we” as in “c” “a” and that “d” “o”)

when i was 17 my mother said to me
“don’t stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die”

[verse]

‘kay lets go makin’ right moves
thinkin’ that we life+proof
blowin lots off life+proofs
if that’s the case, mask my face
smoke that heavy life

like+
we be ashin’ weights
we be smashin’ plates
tossin’ glass to hear it break
the f+ck is real with them passions fake
they say “congradulate”, but+
do they mean it?
is it on they ipods? do they fiend it?
does it keep ’em up at night, right until their wrongs are right?

i shove and i feel ya in the same sight, some same nights
they be gone before we know it
kinda’ like the friends we all thought we would grow old with+

[outro]

but+ i’m just spittin’ for the younger heart
this my hunger art
we be months apart
tryna’ make it years
some trophies with three careers

plus a couple thousand cheers
from the fans in the mezzanine
you can grow old, we gone stay forever 17

(you can grow old, we gone stay forever 17.)
(imagining.. imagining.. imagining)
(you can grow old, we gone stay forever 17.)
