(Chorus)
Hey love . You came a long way from
Sittin in train stations
Staring at strange faces
Eat good food
Drink good drink
I Walk around actin like my sh** dont stink
Seen bad days
Seen bad weeks
I Done mad wrong
Tryna make my peace
Been real low
Been real high
Used to hit the lab
Making beats till 5
In the morning
And recording by the time it turned 6
Feeling sick but i know im finna get my shine
This sh** here. This all me
If im gon fail its gon be on me
And n***as always gonna try to throw you mad shade
So f** it then i might as well be under palm trees
In the carribean cruising on the calm seas
With a couple bad b**hes lookin at me raunchy
Got my lady on my side, and that a** all me
We be riding through the city till the gas on E
(Chorus)
Hey love . You came a long way from
Sittin in train stations
Staring at strange faces
Im a simple man
Gone fishing on a lake, in a distant land
I dont really care for the lavage life
I turn up in the crib
Thats the facts of life
Im just me
My name kota no acrynym
No synonym and no antonym
There were so many before him. And there will be even more after him
Im just a drop in a bucket i know
Im on a roof. Sippin on 100 proof
Used to eat oodles and noodles and leave out with holes in my shoes
Sad because i wasn't cool
But thank you to all of the kids that told me i couldn't play ball cus i ain't have jordans. I had to conform. So people would love me. But now im in some other country . Where everyone love me
(Chorus)
Hey love . You came a long way from
Sittin in train stations
Staring at strange faces
Oh you, always think somebody owe you
Looking for the handout
Mad when they zoe you
Claim that you real
When you fake like tofu
n***as like you alway seem to stay local
Young n***as
Mad emo and mad vocal
But i understand if u tell me its the old you
Ima drop gems like im avatar roku
So listen up close if nobody ever told you
You gotta earn ya stripes
You gotta build up the nerve to fight
You gotta work the nights and think smart. Homie learnins life
In cold weather when its hurts to bite. You gotta push through
And u can flex when ya funds is official
For now u get soned like you malcolm in the middle
And if u got a issue get yo head up in the game. Drop bombs on them dudes waving guns against you. Ugh
(Chorus)
Hey love . You came a long way from
Sittin in train stations
Staring at strange faces
Hey love . You came a long way from
Sittin in train stations
Staring at strange faces
