Long Time Coming
(专辑: Church Clothes - 2012)
I've been treating this part of life like a
dance floor Side stepping all the
things I've made plans for And I
ain't acting when I'm taking on the
man's roles Chance to enhance the
fam can be a
handfull I
rather have my hands full than be empty-handed Travel all around the
planets till I
have it planted Grow roots like great grand pap, married 65 years, 20 kids, same family Strong as an ox and I'm from the
same stock So I'll won't be hanging out 'till I
see the
sun o'clocks It's been a
long time coming but I'm coming at a
decent hour Everything I've have is ours start the
wedding shower Teeball games in the
summer ballet in the
winter And I
ain't scrolling through my twitter while we having dinner Time to grow up, done drank until I
throw up Neglected little man for my plans, try'n to blow up Some people are so focused on the
road to success They don't see their whole family laying dead on the
tracks. I
rather seize to have my lyrics spread over tracks And put some family photos on the
walls instead of plaques. It's been a
long time coming, but we're here now Look I
remember watching videos by Hype Will Thinking I
could do that if I
had a
nice deal But the
precedent is MC's dead believe They take the
same exit that Mason Betha did Cause when you're talking steal then ya sound hard But they let you out ya deal when you found God Back to watching Hype Will, think about how I
feel Wishes spitting Christian wasn't God's will It's been a
long time running, long time wondering Long time humming stupid songs that I
hated From a
rapper that I
felt was overrated 'Cause I
knew that he was faking but he everybody's favorite Coming with that same "ha" had an 808 hit Bricks that weight lift, chicks that is naked I'm in my house studying the
scripts that is sacred If this a
success recipe I
ain't gonna make it So many reasons not to. I
only graduated high school I'm from a
small little city that they fly through, but never fly to Just a
plain town trying to be fly too A
town rapper, we backed down never So I'm bout to take my hood up like Trayvon Fi'n to hold my hood down like your favorite mob Ventilate some hood, now I'm with the
favorite march. Walk up with the
king boy I'm about to Pharoah march. Red Sea is my favorite part. The
Lord opened up a
new avenue In the
street, got the
dove award and we passin through. Church clothes on the
mic spitting what your pastor do Looking at the
world through our Master's view. Offer you the
optic codes, keep this glasses, too. On vying for the
king, but we're cold rappers, dude. It's been a
long time coming
