"Came A Long Way" lyrics

"Came A Long Way"
(feat. PnB Rock)

Came a long way (mm-mm, mm, mm)

I'm in the
I'm in the home room
Real talk
Nine
Yeah, straight up

Miss the way it was (yeah)
Germantown and shoutin', I was waitin' for the bus
I know patience is a must (uh)
Granny told me daily I should stay away from drugs (fuck)
Told her that I would, now I take it just because (why?)
Tryna find happiness before I self-destruct (damn)
When I fell, I looked around for you to help me up
2012, Kufi on, I'm prayin' on my rug (fuck)
Either way it go, I still wish you the best of luck (yeah)
Never disappointed 'cause I ain't expectin' much (true)
My sis ain't have her dad, so it's on me to step it up (damn)
Did what I could to try to get her to open up
It ain't matter how busy I was, I'm showin' up (uh)
Cryin' 'cause she said her and her boyfriend broken up (fuck)
What you mean your boyfriend? You ain't even old enough
Shake my head, I'm like my baby sister growin' up (damn)
Teary-eyed, bubble guts, I was chokin' up (fuck)
On the stage, high as shit, tryna sober up (what?)
Nonchalant, standoffish, givin' shoulder shrugs (yeah)
Back against the ropes, I'm usin' that to hold me up (come on)
As bad as I wanted to, I couldn't hold a grudge (what else?)
I'ma tell you firsthand, be careful showin' love (yeah)
It could backfire, backstabs, backbiters (uh)
'010, I'm meetin' bitches right at Max Myers (true)
Now I'm back inspired in my hoodie, it was Poly (ew)
Came from mount pleasant on my way to mount holly (come on)
Met the bitch at Ballers, it was social, it was vibey (you got it)
What's the move? Let's go to Savu, I said, "Copy" (you got it)
Why you turn your back? I thought you told me that you got me (uh)
Me gettin' the bad end of the stick never shocked me (wow)
Popcorn ceilin', granny house, this wasn't handed out
Still tryna get used to people walkin' up with cameras out (fuck)
Came from canned goods, now the waiters bringin' salmon out (ah)
She said it's between me and you and then she ran her mouth (what?)
I was younger, I ain't understand, I understand it now (yeah)
Sneakers, they Chanel, my first show ever, I wore hand-me-downs (fuck)
Reem, I'm doin' well, you would be proud, I got a family now (damn)
Got a son and everything I learned, I'm 'bout to hand it down (ew)
On the run, I'm 'bout to get a mill'
And I ain't playin' 'round (what?)
You the one that taught me get your
Own and never wait around (you did)
Out the way, we livin' in the cut and yeah, it's safe and sound (fuck)
All them niggas sour, it was love, but now they hate me now
Middle room with Don, a couple ounces, we was breakin' down (fuck)
Even if I'm down for a moment, I ain't stayin' down (come on)
I'd give my life and lay it down to make sure crew was straight (uh)
Makin' sure that mood are good (yeah), puttin' food on the plate
They don't like your pictures, but they
Watchin' all the moves you make (what?)
Four Seasons, movie date, Eddie V's, I'll do the steak (ew)
I had made a few mistakes (come on), I been tryna prove my case (nigga)
Ugly on the inside, but the bitch got the cutest face (wow)
Runnin' game, movin' fate, movin' in my newest state (ah)
Up writin' raps, it's super late, man, I just blew some gate (come on)
Backwood to the face (yeah), workin' on my newest tape (ah)
Rest in peace to Roc, I'm hopin' that you in a better place (true)
Hopin' that you in a better place (uh)
This shit gon' be crazy, Jack

Came a long way, young nigga made it out from nothin'
Yeah, we used to be broke, ain't have no hope, yeah, we was strugglin'
Ain't no food in the fridge, ain't had no heat, had to use the oven
Used to share the same clothes, me and my bros, yeah, we was thuggin'
Nowadays, I look in the mirror and I see change, my shit bussin'
I be thinkin' like, "Damn, is this shit real?" Pause for a second
I been talkin' to God lately and thankin' Him for all my blessings
Even though I got money now, that shit don't stop all this stressin'

'Cause a young nigga still got enemies
Time don't heal nothin', that shit just replace memories
Growin' up in and out of jail, I can't shake these tendencies
I don't trust nobody, these niggas be too finicky
Fuckin' 'round with these hoes, I got my heart broke
Time and time again, I think my new bitch payin' the cost though
Every argument, I get to takin' that shit too far though
Always in defense, I be like, "Bitch, but I'm a boss though"
I done glo'd up, got my dough up
Now I need a hundred thousand just to show up
I came a long way from the trenches and the road tough
Gotta stay po'd up 'fore I can get my soul up (yeah)

Came a long way, young nigga made it out from nothin'
Yeah, we used to be broke, ain't have no hope, yeah, we was strugglin'
Ain't no food in the fridge, ain't had no heat, had to use the oven
Used to share the same clothes, me and my bros, yeah, we was thuggin'
Nowadays, I look in the mirror and I see change, my shit bussin'
I be thinkin' like, "Damn, is this shit real?" Pause for a second
I been talkin' to God lately and thankin' Him for all my blessings
Even though I got money now, that shit don't stop all this stressin'

Bossed up, young nigga bossed up
1.5 On my crib, that's what the cost was
You was fuckin' with the other side, should've never crossed us
Bitch, that's when you lost us, explosions what the cost was
Fuck that nigga, he dead (dead)
I put that tech on his head (head)
I got this bitch in my bed (my bed)
I don't wanna fuck, I want head (head)
Louis V, off-white, vlone, vlone
I put that shit on my leg (on my leg)
I ain't even post on the 'Gram in a minute
But niggas still tellin' my plays (true)
Sauce, blast (ayy)
Hold up, back up
You ain't even got no mask (no mask)
They like, "How is quarantine? These
Niggas still poppin' tags" (Poppin' tags)
This bitch on first place and it's crazy, I used to come in last

Came a long way, young nigga made it out from nothin' (nothin')
Yeah, we used to be broke, ain't have no hope, yeah, we was strugglin' (strugglin')
Ain't no food in the fridge, ain't had no heat, had to use the oven (oven)
Used to share the same clothes, me and my bros, yeah, we was thuggin'
Nowadays, I look in the mirror and I see change, my shit bussin'
I be thinkin' like, "Damn, is this shit real?" Pause for a second
I been talkin' to God lately and thankin' Him for all my blessings
Even though I got money now, that shit don't stop all this stressin' (all yeah)
