Came a Long Way - C5

I was on the grind in them trenches all day

Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day

Like a marathon I den came a long way

I came a long way I den came a long way

I was on the grind in them trenches all day

Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day

Like a marathon I den came a long way

I came a long way I den came a long way

Gotta thank God for this

Almost lost my life for this

I was selling dimes and nicks

Trying to ball like the Knicks

Gotta keep a condom on cause you know that life a bitch

I’m in this cold world it’s fucking up my sinuses

They been taking lives everyday like it’s vitamins

I’m trying to get this green like a Heineken

You know what time it is

I ain’t got no time to Lay but you know I’m bout my chips

They gave my big cuz the book ain’t talking The Alchemist

We reminisce bout what we used to do through these letters

Right or wrong you know you my family through whatever

25 with a letter

I could be doing time with him but he proud I’m doing better, yea

I was on the grind in them trenches all day

Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day

Like a marathon I den came a long way

I came a long way I den came a long way

I was on the grind in them trenches all day

Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day

Like a marathon I den came a long way

I came a long way I den came a long way

What I been through you wouldn’t believe me if I told you

And what I overcame you wouldn’t believe me less I know you

I came a long way dog I wasn’t even mobile

Streets turn you to a man and I ain’t go to no adult school

Beauty in the struggle though

Like I’m far sighted always seen light at the end of the tunnel though

I got my hustle on ain’t going home til my bundle gone

Boy in the hood with a Nia Long

And you know I’m strapped like my cinturón, yea

Only stopping for the red lights

Only talking to the feds when I’m getting read rights

I ain’t got no friends left cause you know they dead right?

Think my girl gone leave me I got her stressing every night

Like damn

I been getting money all night lil baby

Your girl don’t love you if she ain’t a lil crazy

Blessed to be alive everyday a celebration

Shout out my nigga Sharp he keep my songs in rotation

Yea

Keep my songs in rotation

I went from the trap to a private location

Ain’t nobody know me now I’m getting hood famous

I came a long way

I was on the grind in them trenches all day

Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day

Like a marathon I den came a long way

I came a long way I den came a long way

I was on the grind in them trenches all day

Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day

Like a marathon I den came a long way

I came a long way I den came a long way
