Lyrics
They say we came a long way (Long way)
But the problems they won't stay for long (No, no)
They say we came a long way (Long way)
But the problems they won't stay for long (No, no)
Cause every day I pray for peace for me
Every day I pray for peace for me, so hold on
It's me who brings problems in
I could care less what your problem is
Came a long way to be broke and bummy
Hustle for my nickel to really get money
With my life wasn't going cause
All I remember was sippin' I was locked up
Man, I need to cut it out
I'mma end up dead, leave my momma by herself
Now what kind of son am I?
Do something silly and leave my people stranded
This ain't how I fuckin' planned it
Might well get a gun and fuckin' end it
Leave a note, a real apologetic
Tell 'em why I'm leavin', I'm going to visit Brandon
But I remember ain't no coming back
And I can't go out like that
And I can't go out like that
And I can't go out like no sucka
No sucka, no, no
They say we came a long way (Long way)
But the problems they won't stay for long (No, no)
They say we came a long way (Long way)
But the problems they won't stay for long (No, no)
Cause every day I pray for peace for me
Every day I pray for peace for me, so hold on
So hold on, and keep a tight squeeze too
Stay on your grind, these people need you
It's hard to be good in a world that's evil
Tryna feed my people without doin' somethin' illegal (Biatch)
People so quick to judge though
When they don't even know me, what they judge fo'?
A hard workin' negro for my dough
These haters gon' hate, something that I know
But I pay it no never mind and keep grindin'
Keep bustin' they pipes with the pressure I'm applyin'
I pour out some liquor, this for my niggas dyin'
Send X's and O's to all the mothers cryin'
I came from the bottom, stuck in the middle climbin'
Hopin' to make it to the top off of this little rhymin'
Better do in my past time, been a long time comin'
Even if it's my last dime, my kids won't for nothin'
As I sip on this Jose and think about mo' pay
Back then we had no pay, man we came a long way
Man we came a long way
They say we came a long way (Long way)
But the problems they won't stay for long (No, no)
They say we came a long way (Long way)
But the problems they won't stay for long (No, no)
Cause every day I pray for peace for me
Every day I pray for peace for me, so hold on
