Long Time

From the album Remind You by Scottychams

Verse

It's been a long time since I felt the passion and glory

But it's been glorious

Telling all these kids

How my story is

They won't ignore it bet

They minds ain't clouded yet

They might just get the gist

And cut the wishes

Ain't no bullshitting visions

Yo

They might just get to business

I might just smoke some swishes

Ain't been long time since I toked

I've been lifted

Lot of people make up excuses

Even saying I'm gifted

Is a slippery slope

It takes devotion

No hocus pocus

Pushing for your purpose

Practice til it's worth it

And then practice some more

I guess I suppose

I'm done trying to hope

I'm done trying to cope

All that half truth joke poke shit

I know how it is

And I know how it gets

The problem is

Most lack respect

But drill on for homage

You should put on for yourself

Not just for your hommies

Shit can be lonely

But at least

I know me

Kid pushing for low means

With no tease and

No sleep

The first 4 years of this shit were a breeze

Compared to the next

I ain't neglecting the worst

but don't respond to text

Unless it's bout the work

I was doing all this to empower the world

I know for sure it would hurt

If I brought children to this earth

In the current state of relations

And stakes in for saving humanity

Another day of sin

It's been a long time since

I could talk people and not see within

It makes me cringe

They try to make you lose

Just in hopes to win

You could take the L yourself

But that's what you don't give

I won't forget

This is hell

Not a gift

And this is whack

Just a trip

And you just stuck to the script

You stuck to the script
