Long Run

(album: 1999 - 2020)

Stuck in the past for my own selfish needs
I don't need you around me for my self-esteem
I got word from my angel, this shit's meant to be
It's the long run

I danced in the fire created for me
I don't look down on shit that my brain's meant to see
Man, I think we're too close to be arch enemies
It's the long run

I don't give a fuck, I gotta go
Man, I've done the things I need to show
Don't need you to make me feel controlled
As long as I play it right
As long as I pray it right

I don't wanna know you if you think about fucking on my bitch
When you horny
You just gotta look me in the face
All you ever see is grace
If you need some space, all you gotta do is

Back up, back up
Get all your facts up
Rolling through the city with my windows and they blacked out
We had altercations 'cause we knew we know the same stuff
So please get offended, I just wanna let you finish
Yeah, my knowledge is extended
Man, this life is so expensive
That's a funny way to put it
Shout to Scrim and Ruby
I'm just rolling with my woadies
I'm just waking up and I'm still here with all the homies

Yeah, my soul is growing, but my face still the same, uh
Name still the same, uh
Brain still the same, uh
Changes never change me
I've been getting brain a lot, that shit will never change, uh
Eighty-eight is on my neck, I wear it like my faith, uh
Living life with all the shit the universe has taught me
If you're seeing what I'm seeing, man, this shit is out of body
I don't care if she your girl, 'cause either way, she call me papi
Man, your life is not a paradise, you never went to Bali, uh

Being at peace is the mission
Don't get near me when I'm pissed off
Man, you got too much ambition
Plotting on me, I don't think so
Man, I got too much to waste
I've been investing and I'm doing great
I got no worries of being replaced
I just been cruising the roads that I paved

If we talking 'bout passions, I got four to five
Heard you feel like you the shit, well, so do I
I got no ego, man, it's empty
Don't expect your ass to feel me
I got angels riding with me now

'Cause, yeah, my soul is growing but my face still the same, uh
Name still the same, uh
Brain still the same, uh
Changes never change me
I've been getting brain a lot, that shit will never change, uh
Eighty-eight is on my neck, I wear it like my faith, uh
Living life with all the shit the universe has taught me
If you're seeing what I'm seeing, man, this shit is out of body
I don't care if she your girl, 'cause either way, she call me papi
Man, your life is not a paradise, you never went to Bali, bitch
