Lyrics of Pass You By by Rod Wave

intro

Me, personally
I've always been the one to
Encourage motherfuckers to chase they dreams, like
You know what I'm saying?

verse

Been thinkin' 'bout Eeshan, your time finally here
Miss Bridges told me she miss Daijha, I could've shed a tear
My cousin wrote me and told me he love to see me live
Been gone for 12 summers, locked up 11 years

verse

And brighter days are ahead, see it clear
Sometimes it be like that, keep goin'
You only get one life to live, it's alright to heal
Stop lookin' backwards and move forwards (yeah, yeah)

chorus

Nothing's promised in this life
You could leave any day, any day
And who the fuck made up hard times anyways?
Anyways, anyways (anyways)

chorus

Gotta reach for the stars, reach for the sky
You can't be stuck on the past when your future is bright
You gotta patch up your pain and live your life
Can't let it bring you down, don't let it pass you by

hook

It'll pass you by
Don't let it pass you by (youngin)
Can't let it pass you by
Don't let it pass you by
Don't let it pass you by (youngin)
Don't let it pass you by

verse

Skippin' school, causin' drama, I'm so sorry for it, Mama
I tried to do it right, but it was hard times in that bottom
I was broke, sleepin' on that couch, my brother hit that lick without me
It's okay, my time comin', one day, I'm gon' be shinin'

verse

Thankful we ain't buy the dreams they sold us
Now we ridin' through that bottom with the doors up
My lil' cousin grab the mic, I hope he blow up
Front my youngin 20 bags and tell him, "Grow up," (grow up) 'cause

chorus

Nothing's promised in this life
You could leave any day, any day (any day)
And who the fuck made up hard times anyways?
Anyways (anyways, anyways, yeah)

chorus

You gotta reach for the stars, reach for the sky
You can't be stuck on the past when your future is bright
You gotta patch up your pain and live your life
Can't let it bring you down, don't let it pass you by

hook

It'll pass you by
Don't let it pass you by
Can't let it pass you by
Pass you by (you only get one life to live, you know what I'm sayin'?)
Let it pass you by (don't waste your shot, you heard me?)
Don't let it pass you by

outro

Yeah, whatever, whatever you got left of it, you know?
You'll never know
Shit, it might be tomorrow, it might be next year
It might be tonight, you heard me?
Yeah, do that shit, man
Writer(s): Willie Byrd, Rod Green, Ben Bull
