[Verse 1:]
|
I wonder if Gladys smiles when angels bring my name up
|
Or change language and subject change up
|
Her boy's a long way from red dolls and green rangers
|
Things ain't been the same since Ms. Patterson called me famous
|
I saw your reflection in a toilet full of vomit water
|
You don't think I felt your hand on my head yelling, "Call his father"
|
But people don't hear ghost, so how they gon' play me?
|
Money saved me, so I'm a do the same thing
|
You droppin' pounds, gettin' small on some sick shit
|
Like how you got the drive but don't know how to use a stick shift?
|
You better not miss this, overdose dope and mix this
|
Let your throat close with a boatload of dope quotes within it
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Long time now since I seen you smile
|
Long time long time now
|
Since I seen you smile
|
And it's been a long time, long time now
|
Since I seen you smile
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
Dropping tapes 'till I losted count
|
Coughing out blood, dropping weight like I lost an ounce
|
Throwing words and tossing nouns
|
NY traveling, I'm Boston bound, bossing 'round homies
|
And talking down to shorties while I'm jotting down
|
Notes to spit to Harlem crowds, surfing through the Harlem crowds
|
At the crib I'm falling down, I'm on the floor crawling 'round
|
I'm calling out to God, "You're little angel's falling down
|
Save me from my darkened cloud, reach your hands and arms around"
|
Long time long time now since I seen your smile
|
We miss you
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
#10Day
|
It's been a really, really long time, long time
|
Since a goof ass nigga done tried me
|
Label niggas wanna sign me and lame ol' nigga wanna buy me
|
Food and weed and drink and shit, just as long as you inkin shit
|
Sometimes I can't pay for food cause sometimes I can't think of shit
|
Where's your head at? Where's your head at?
|
Singing my shit like you just said that
|
Wanging my shit like where'd you hear that?
|
Young ass nigga where you headed?
|
Long time to get famous, life's whatever you make it
|
Just thank God that we made it
|
