Текст песни Long Way - Stucco The Great

Ayo Guru turn my mic up
It's a Friday afternoon, three niggas in the studio uh
Helter Skelter, you know
Longevity nigga, I had to do that
Aha

They vocally paralyzed
And searching for paradise
They need a mouthpiece who'll empathize
And then emphasize
Equality through lyricism
What I say visualize
We need to work together
Do better
And then synchronize (yeah)
Rap ain't really what it used to be
As a kid this is not the stuff that I would foresee
There's no more storytelling, y'all tainting your legacies
Always high on ecstasy
They acting like there's two of me
Your jewelry, is worth more your feature price
Make it make sense 'cause honestly I'm traumatized
I'm searching for answers
Why niggas go broke then blame it on dancers
Nah, nigga you thought it was gangster
Now you can't afford pampers, shit
Some of the realist shit I ever wrote
You can't deny it my nigga 'cause God already spoke
Try to work on yourself 'fore your dreams go up in smoke
I'm California dreaming, only focused on my growth
I ain't picking up no calls coming from a snitch
And I've never been the type to idolize the rich
Niggas switch up quicker than a bitch then expect you to understand
I'ma put you in a ditch (yeah)
The simplest way is to walk away
I need some peace of mind, it's only like a mile away
The simplest way is to walk away
I need some peace of mind, it's only like a mile away

My OG told me it would be like this
When we talk about the state of rap, he's getting pissed (yeah)
My OG told me it would be like this
We still got a long way to go, now talk your shit (uh)

My OG told me it would be like this
When we talk about the state of rap, he's getting pissed (yeah)
My OG told me it would be like this
We still got a long way to go, now talk your shit (woo)

Whether it be the rap game or the crack game
It's still competitive as fuck
The odds I overcame (yeah)
I ain't sniffing cocaine or popping pills nigga
I'm just sipping champagne, now try to chill nigga
I just took a hiatus to see the bigger picture
Lights flicker, the great one's back
I'm still the same nigga
Now tell me who these people really want to see
'Cause most of you rappers turning this shit into a mockery
I should be jogging your memory
But they reading your eulogy
Your career's in jeopardy, should I go on?
I never worry 'cause I'm on the upper echelon
Niggas should be treating me just like the rap phenomenon
Came to the game to add value
So futuristic that the world is my rare view
Don't give a fuck about the industry, I tells you
I do this for the love, you should tell me thank you

My OG told me it would be like this
When we talk about the state of rap, he's getting pissed (yeah)
My OG told me it would be like this
We still got a long way to go, now talk your shit (uh)

My OG told me it would be like this
When we talk about the state of rap, he's getting pissed (yeah)

We still got a long way to go now talk your shit

Helter Skelter
Longevity nigga
Aha
2022, nigga
