A Long Way versuri

A Long Way lyrics by ClassSick

Hook x2
I done came a long way
Since that first night caught a case
This is not a game we play
We go hard straight out the gate
Move them angels out the way
And look the devil in his face
You tried to take my life away
Let’s see who else gonna die today

Verse 1
Always taught to mind my business
I seen bro turn co defendant
Stress induce that dope dependant
Dream lucid the streets a menace
Lionheart that true ambition
Play your part and pay attention
Been thru hell survive the trenches
Keep my family don’t do friendships
Numbed myself to cope with pain
Learned Things ain’t always what they seem
I turned my ex back to fiend
We soul searched and found our peace
You dream of riding limousine
I dream of living sober clean
I really dodged some bullets
You just dance and hit the shoulder lean

Hook x2
I done came a long way
Since that first night caught a case
This is not a game we play
We go hard straight out the gate
Move them angels out the way
And look the devil in his face
You tried to take my life away
Let’s see who else gonna die today

Verse 2
Giving all things we consider
Kept the gun locked shoutout wizard
Just a lion moving his herd
Used to watch as my soul withered
Shadow figures dancing to dismay
My darker shades of grey
Self destruct but I’m ok
Been locked away to contemplate
Now will I die or fix my ways
Guess I’m trapped in those dire straits
Building a new castle
Just to set fire to my estate
Got me questioning my faith
Know I never could love a snake
I seen em slang and end up slained
Now they wonder why I changed
Cause

Hook x2
I done came a long way
Since that first night caught a case
This is not a game we play
We go hard straight out the gate
Move them angels out the way
And look the devil in his face
You tried to take my life away
Let’s see who else gonna die today

Verse 3
Mister catching stones they throw at me
Keep poisoned love 100 feet
I’m standing tall a soldier, please
The gulag ain’t controlling me
I realize who I’m posed to be
No wonder angels close to me
The reaper taking notes on me
To death I’m just a trophy piece
Who wondered what’s my fate
At night wishing I died
From standing on the corners
To breaking in every ride
Suffering the losses
With a strong hold on my pride
Yes I miss the old me
But this new me feels just right

Hook x2
I done came a long way
Since that first night caught a case
This is not a game we play
We go hard straight out the gate
Move them angels out the way
And look the devil in his face
You tried to take my life away
Let’s see who else gonna die today
