"Long Way From The Block" lyrics

Most the homies I grew up with stuck in prison or got shot
I knew I had to find my way out 'cause I cannot
Came a long way from them trenches, I can't never, ever stop
No, 'til I reach the top
Long way from that block
Long way from that, long way from that block
Long way from that, long way from that block
Long way from that, long way from that block
Oh, long way from that, long way from that block

I'm way out the trenches right now, I can't let go of the Glock
'Cause I done seen too many niggas fall victim to not having chop
Really got too many gone, really got too many dead
Nothing can hurt me, I'm strong, fight all my demons in bed
Heard what I said
They think I'm lit 'cause I'm rich, I'm a young nigga gettin' to bread
Swear I've been sober sometimes, but I swear I've been missin' the meds
I make a call and it's war, bet you them niggas regret
Christian Dior, Dior, drippin' to show my respect
New diamonds on me to flex, I ain't got a bodyguard, but I move correct
Try and we put you to rest, traumatized from the scars I've seen on the S
Passed when they gave me the test, I'm puttin' on for the X
Passed when they gave me the test, I'm puttin' on for the X, I'm puttin' on for the gang
I'm puttin' on for my niggas that's callin' collect, when they come home, they gettin' a chain
I know they feelings in pain, two years ago, I was sittin' here, doing the same
But it ain't nothin' to gain, we turnin' up, we finna give niggas hell
Free all my niggas for real, bitch, this a dream, finally, I can excel

Most the homies I grew up with stuck in prison or got shot
I knew I had to find my way out 'cause I cannot
Came a long way from them trenches, I can't never, ever stop
No, 'til I reach the top
Long way from that block
Long way from that, long way from that block
Long way from that, long way from that block
Long way from that, long way from that block
Oh, long way from that, long way from that block
