Long Road

Long road

I'm walkin' down it all alone

But my mama always told me to be strong

Can't speak my feelings, so I just put it in a song

Daddy incarcerated, won't know when he comin' home

Visitation, we can't even touch his hand

He said, ''Son, just keep your head up''

He said, "When I'm gone, you the oldest, so that make you the man

You ain't lil' no more, so son, you gotta man up"

Mama workin' overtime, I ain't understand

But I can see it in her eyes, she was fed up

Ever since that day, I started thinkin' 'bout the brand plan

Like, I can be the one to get that bread up

I love my brothers who ain't my brothers

Love your mama like she my mama

You love my brothers like he your brother

You love my mama like she your mama

'Member it was cold, we ain't had no sweaters

We thuggin', we don't need no shelter

Now all our flights be Delta

It's truly is amazing how we made it out the weather

But they don't really know what we came from

No, they don't really know what we came from

Yeah, yeah

Long road

I'm walkin' down it all alone

But my mama always told me to be strong

Can't speak my feelings, so I just put it in a song

Daddy incarcerated, won't know when he comin' home

Long road

Can't speak my feelings, so I just put it in a song

Daddy incarcerated, won't know when he comin' home

I'm older now, I'm tryin' everything

I even tried lovin', honestly, it's a beautiful thing

I live a hard knock life, I had to make some change

I couldn't work no nine to five, couldn't do minimum wage

So I became a rapper, let's just see how the things go

I'll show you I'm Taleban, just watch how everything blow

I swear, if you listen, I'll leave your mind exploded

I could be hurt, but I'll smile, you'll never noticce

But they don't really know what we came from

No, they don't really know what we came from

Yeah, yeah
