Long Ways

It's funny how you wake up Say you wanna break up You say, "Time's out on my Jacob" You've been watchin' and observin' And don't know where we're goin' You ain't got time for blowin' It's apparent here lately That you've been actin' shady An' with everythin' you doin' You ain't tryin' to involve me You really need to stop it We done came a long damn way We done came a long way From being young and in love to this real serious We done came a long way Ain't no need to break up, come to think about it We done came a long way From walking to the bus to two cars for us We done came a long way We done come a long long way Maybe I should tighten up Or maybe should I lighten up? And show you that I got your back Even though sometimes I act Like I don't hear what you're sayin' now Maybe I should stop playin' round Show you I'm a real man And hopefully you'll understand That I ain't goin' nowhere Ain't no need to take it there Don't want you put them bags away We done came a long way We done came a long way From a one bedroom to a maid with a broom We done came a long way Ain't no need to break up, come to think about it We done came a long way From meeting both of your parents and to a stroller and a carriage We done came a long way We done came a long way Sometimes it gets rough And you go through some things Sometimes it seems like too much Girl, but we got to stop and think One day I hope you wear my weddin' ring 'Cuz only you know where we've been And you know we've come too far, yeah 'Cuz you were there When I was set down in the ghetto We've come too far to turn around We done came a long way From being young and in love to this real serious We done came a long way Ain't no need to break up, come to think about it We done came a long way From a one bedroom to a maid with a broom We done came a long way We done came a long long long long long long way We done came a long way Put your bags down, sit down, let me talk to you We done came a long way I'm not worried what nobody gotta say 'cause We done came a long way They don't know what we've been through We done came a long way You know and I know We done came a long way
