Ashlei Mayadia - Long Way to Go lyrics

[Intro: K-Rino] While y'all looking at the hourgla** Thinking that the sand is about to run out I'm getting prepared to flip it over and keep gon' Come on [Verse 1: K-Rino] I wish that life came with personal instruction pamphlets References and answers for when it gets too rough to handle it Despite slow advancement, I managed, y'all know who I stand with He pulled me in when I was on the cusp of major damage My life's a puzzle, I haven't matched up all the pieces yet It seems like something's always missing, I can never complete the set I'm like a car with no wheels, my circumstances parked it Plus I got a million dollar plan with no finance to spark it We want our blessings overnight, incredible success But God don't work for UPS or Federal Express Better use discretion, life is an everyday test just to prove who the best Fools hit you with set of rules that'll use to do d**h then move you to the left I trip on what the world is showing me Wow, how many k**ers have we pa**ed by in our lifetimes unknowingly Refuse to catch signs that he throwing me Maybe I should go and see, plant a God seed and let it grow in me [Chorus x2: Ashlei Mayadia & K-Rino] I know that you think that I'm at the end of my road But I got a long way to go [K-Rino] "Me can't follow your evil tricks man" That's like telling someone to sit calm with a man cuffed to his arm wearing a lip balm Full of disgust plus a slave to my lust I can't start trusting people till I meet people I can trust Now I'm acting out of the ordinary How can we be on the same page if we not even in the same library Your perception of the planet is so slanted To me your like sand, I'm concrete but you keep taking me for granted Now the thing I want the most of all Is who'll remain here when the posters far And who'll stick by the closest when the flow is stalled In frivolous things you was so involved, drugged and so enthralled But no man can boast it all once his ghost is called This composition was conceived in grief Hand weaved to ease deceit from people who secretly disbelieved in me I needed you and you needed me which meant that us needed we But now the bridge is burned, so I'ma leave it be [Chorus x2: Ashlei Mayadia & K-Rino] I know that you think that I'm at the end of my road But I got a long way to go [K-Rino] What happens to a dream deferred? And what purpose does it seem to serve when it's unheard and splattered against the curve? Can you really be redeemed with words? And murder temptations steaming urge and exercise the demon that's submerged? It's the 4th quarter, they put me in for all to see My life is on the line, down by nine and they keep on giving the ball to me They got a full-court press on me I gotta break it fast I'm tryna locate a teammate so I can make a pa** They wanna subject me to doom and harm I scan the room in calm to the conclusion that I'm the only one in this uniform And the entire crowd is booing me, the defense still pursuing me Out to ruin me, they once loved me, now they through with me I started dribbling then I shook this dummy The ball slipped out of my hand one of them rushed over and almost took if from me It's loud and it's a packed house I took the shot and before I could see if I made or missed it I blacked-out [Chorus x2: Ashlei Mayadia & K-Rino] I know that you think that I'm at the end of my road But I got a long way to go
