Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know my life not picture perfect
I just know that I'ma shine, 'cause my picture worth it
Look deep inside my soul, I wrote this in cursive
They like, "You can change the world if you change your purpose"
I felt the world drop over my fuckin' head
And push me into a corner, now I'm close to the edge
I do it for the family that a **** lost
I let the track sing and let the drums talk
I hit the kill switch, I'm supposed to be dead
Bein' Christian and losin' vision, I'm close to the edge
Screaming, "Look at me, mama, we made it to Forbes"
"I gave it my all, now the world is yours"
[PreChorus]
So I kick in the door, when it rains, it pours
Was in love with the game, now I need a divorce
'Cause the game not sure, she done did this before
My life like a movie, is this real? Are you sure?
[Chorus]
It's a long way, a long way home (Been so long)
On the path in front of me
I've been going endlessly for us
It's a long way, a long way home
We run wild like shooting stars
But no matter where you are (Yeah)
I'm always there with you (Yeah)
I'm always there with you (After all we been through)
I'm always there with you (Yeah)
I'm always there with you (Yeah, I know my life crazy)
I'ma let the beat save me
[Verse 2]
After all, I'm still traumatized, life hella dramatized
Tryna find love, we livin' inside a genocide
Hear the same story, the stray bullets is memorized
Through it all, I realize that's why we stay unified
I reckon we all can be who we supposed to be
And those who still in search, story ain't complete
Now you lookin' at me like who am I supposed to be?
Lost in the wind, I figure I could be anything
[PreChorus]
So I kick in the door, when it rains, it pours
Was in love with the game, now I need a divorce
'Cause the game not sure, she done did this before
My life like a movie, is this real? Are you sure?
[Chorus]
It's a long way, a long way home (Been so long)
On the path in front of me
I've been going endlessly for us
It's a long way, a long way home
We run wild like shooting stars
But no matter where you are (Yeah)
I'm always there with you (Yeah)
I'm always there with you (After all we been through)
I'ma let the beat save me
