Raury - Woodcrest Manor Lyrics
[Intro:]
It's like...
[Verse 1:]
See I've been living in this house forever
Woodcrest Manor Eastern of Atlanta
Well at least I had a sense of home
Like mama when we move in
Always tell me some' with some doubt
Watch every stranger move in
Helped all my homies move out
Watched every house get sold
Watched every neighbor get old
I saw that sunset back when I was six
Well I guess them trees growed
Then my life for a second was stopped
Saw an angel from heaven she talked
In the clearest description she taught
[Hook:]
If this view becomes nothing new to you
Just remember once it was beautiful (x4)
[Verse 2:]
See I've been with this girl for years
Through every single smile and tear
The time has passed and now I fear
I don't feel the same no more
But who's to blame not me or her
It could just be this universe
That caused this love to bloom at first
Then wilt and wither through it's thirst
So blame it on that lack of water
I know I'm gaining badder Karma
Through all those hearts I've broken
I'm hoping that down the road that when I have a child that it's not a daughter
But when I'm having childish thoughts
And when I feel completely lost
And when my heart begins to frost
I just think of what them angels taught
[Hook]
[Outro:]
Ever come across something for the first time
Be it a person place or thing
They gave you an instant feeling of happiness
Made you glad to be alive
And eventually as time goes on the feeling gets weaker, and weaker, and weaker
And you don't know why
It's slowly becoming less exciting
And the whole time you're in denial about this decreasing value
And you know it in the back of your mind
That the feeling's fading away
And it's almost over
But ignore reality and continue to keep trying
Eventually the feeling becomes harder to reach or just disappears completely
And it leaves us pondering a crucial question:
Does everything eventually lose it's meaning?
Will the things that make us happy today, make us happy tomorrow?
Will this joke always make me laugh?
Will the bright lights in times square always astound me?
Or will I just get so used to them that I forget they're even there?
Will I love this person forever?
Will this person love me forever?
Does anything last forever?

Hook]
We used to be friends
On the street, you and me, 'til the sidewalk would end
With the windows rolled down and the Cudi turned up
Yeah we did it all now, look at how it turned up
Everybody came down, everybody rolled up
Look at how we went in, look at how we turned up
You whippin' that Benz
Mercedes, super clean, that's what you champion
With the windows rolled down and the Kanye turned up
Yeah we did it all now, look at how it turned up
Everybody came down, everybody rolled up
Look at how we went in, look at how we turned up
[Verse]
See you can be salty like them fries you be supersizin'
The darker mental cloud than the kids that be suicidin'
But who am I to be like Houdini and proof n pot'em?
Alladupahollouwishes, and poof away all the problems
I know I used to deal with you
Your brother was the plug who had Tommys like Hilfiger
And you'd move up to white girls, poppin' them pills
Get you actin' wild, now you got face tats, plottin' to kill niggas
Nonetheless we was still niggas
The last one in your circle that's keepin' it real with you
Did you know that snakes in your circle would build with you?
And still slither, they plot for the day that the steels hits you
For good times, that's all I reminisce about my homie, the good times
Yeah take me anywhere long as you show me the good times
Remember back at Woodcrest I would spit neighborhood rhymes
Would find the youngest, just like me probably would shine
Probably would shine
Probably would shine
Probably would, probably would, probably would

I miss Raury, I will meet him one day..
You think his voice is similar to Scorpions or is it just me??
Raury mi vida te promeso
its almost as if can make you look back happily on a time that never even happened
The vibe of this song really helped me. I was so mad with what I was going through in life but somehow this beat with raurys voice combined made me take a deep breathe. That one deep breathe and saying i got this changed my life & it wouldn't be without raury. Thank you.
Support this young man.
people are sleeping on raury.
I'm diggin
if Raury comes to Toulouse, he could chill with other mate Raury -Wowee we got Raury's

When you fuck with Cudi and Kanye then hear the hook to this song👌. Raury dope asf.

https://soundcloud.com/dominique-davis-1/get-stacks
So glad I started listening to him after seeing Lucy

my bab barbara dumped me over this song::::( save me babs i need a new bab
Does anyone know what that jazz song at the end is called?
Love this 😍😍
this song makes me wanna make a music vid to it with friends and just chill and party to it
FlyJay Music for real man.
Cus I connect with it so deeply
I call this ME music
Damn this is good.
Chris rivers and Raury should really think about making music together, we would really enjoy that !
Possible (likely) James Blake influence I smell here. See "To The Last" by James Blake.
i feel like this song would have been a perfect fit for the fruitvale station soundtrack
preach it
reruns to nice earl sweatshirt and joey are dope
u see thats the type of rapper i am
Check me out on Soundcloud
https://soundcloud.com/waveking2
🔥🙏🏾
DJ smooth jazz is all I'm here for
raury u are my spirt animal
amazing love it feels like therapy.
this song is so mellow n chill I love it 🙏👌
omg, why have i been listening to pop
dude your music is so different and I'm such a fun, I mean you're so refreshing and I can't put u in any category man... From South Africa ✌.
I'm South African too. Heya 😁
That's wassup, shout out to South Africa
omw Nuhaa!!!! look where i found you :D fellow indigo
+Nuhaa Fuentes :)
We all here
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE HE GOT THE PIANO PART (3:30-3:50) I WANT TO KNOW
glad i found him, diamond in the rough.
Raury is genius!
much love.
Still can't believe my friend from high school would be one of my favorite rappers. Keep up the good work bro.
Intellectual Madman that's crazy, he's one of my idols
Everythings larger than it seems! This song made me cry!
I understand that you all want something fresh, but don't tell me you're Impressed by this trash😁
Cole is trash lmfao
+Cole World Explain how this is trash?
The Beatles throughout this album
this is sick
At first does he say got the Cudi turned up then later say got the Kanye turned up?
thats what I heard 😂
he says got the "Carter" turned up
Austin Bryant sounds like it
Austin Bryant sounds like it
Javier H From what I hear it's Cudi not Carter.
I think we all appreciate the rappers who have a message, i love all sorts of hip hop and rap, from babbling about nothing to babbling about something if that makes sense
Why am I just now finding out about this?
+SHES GOREGOUS better late than never!
shout out to my old neighborhood woodcrest manor where I watched raury walk up and down the street with that broke ass guitar. proud of you sir -China
raury is the shit
Dude is fucking with Jayden's Market share.
I like raury, especially when he raps idc about his singing and sometimes rock but I'm not trying to stop him because he's too unique. I think he has the potential to make even better music. . I believe his future albums will be better although i still like this
i find it so interesting reading these comments and how many people listen to similar artists as me every time i try and play music like this it gets turned off for fetty wap future drake or some other bs like that lol
Let's do big things together my brotha.
Migoooooo
so so good
i love this song he is amazing Raury is a legend!!!
Where can I download this album for an android mobile phone??
COME TO THE MIDLAND IN KC! PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE!
Oh no, not another niggahhh....
sound like a taylor swift song
Look up what a light worker is then you will understand brotha
this is great
lol he looks so much like Denzel Curry
Denzel is just Raury's evil twin brother
+JaDon Evan basically lmao 😂
This is gonna blow up when the music video comes out.
"Mercedes super clean" that's some honest brilliance. Only way that goes down is when you got a model too big to fit in an automatic wash.
I don't get it
@Spid VF I spent some time cleaning big Mercedes. On models, a cool quote from my text recently: "Models are just abstractions from data, and seldom transferable from one" historian to another. :D
+Paul Andreas Fischer Ohh , I would of never know XD
47,000 views
I'm feeling this heavy
beautiful
He is amazing.
Theneedledrop acting like his singing is like Miley Cyrus trash. I strongly believe this fell on his deaf ears.
the rhythm in which he sings "With the Windows rolled down and the cudi turned up ya we did it all now look at how we turned up"
"everybody came down everybody rolled up look at how we went in look at how we turned up" sounds similar to another song I can't put my thumb in! Help?
+Saasha Irani ugh i hope not
I know exactly what you're saying, it's an old song I remember listening to it, this is exactly why I came to the comments to find it! Did you ever find it?
Might have an answer for you guys lmao search "Shine on you crazy diamond" and choose the video by "Pink Floyd - Topic" and go to 4:05. Is that what you're thinking of?
@Vulcan no, that's definitely a good beat no denying that (I love Pink Floyd) but we're talking about the melody not the beat, and the song we're talking about is a black song lol.
Oh I see lmao no problem
How can someone dislike this song sighhh?
Great track.
On one hand, if I like I'll show my admiration for the song, but on the other, I'll taint the sanctity of a video having exactly 666 likes
The beginning makes me wanna cry .....
This kid is amazing. Hopefully kids follow his lead and come up with original music
Raury is the hope for the future. it doesn't take much to follow his footsteps for the quest of everlasting love.
really my life
my life....
Dope song!...it's crazy i stay right around the corner from woodcrest manor...Good stuff Raury!
Saw you on the nightly show yesterday for the first time, and I'm already a huge fan. I've been waiting for someone like you to pop up, the new generation, I support you fully. #new
