Brother Ali - So Far (Budo Remix) lyrics

[Hook: Shaprece] We've come so far, and now they asking who we are Cause we reach for the stars And it's been so long I ain't planning on going on And now they see, exactly what it takes to be Something different And wouldn't you agree We here and we ain't going nowhere [Verse One: Grynch] Here's the junior album, the 3rd time's a charm And they ain't sleeping on me, no, they heard my alarm Word minus bond, this is what they waiting on Haters y'all keep hating on, most just love the way I slay a song And every stage I'm on I do it with no make up on Been married to this here since '04 You can't break our bond, I made it strong Built to last y'all until the day I'm gone And if its the dark ages of rap, well here's the break of dawn Its a new day, like record stores on Tuesday Mama told me wack sh** is the devil, Bobby Bushay Excuse me, cutting past these rapper talking nonsense About how they're God next You corny crowns and makin' bomb threats But you ain't blowing up sh**, except your own ego Until it pops and you drop and your throwin a fit With your career cold in a ditch No choice but calling it quits It's over that's it Don't worry its for your own benefit Trick [Verse Two: Grynch] I never sacrifice my own self to follow trends What you see is what you get that's how it always been But some of y'all attend, you're hot for a year 12 months you got it all, now watch it all disappear Surprise I'm still here It ain't my fault you're not authentic Fake it till you make it Get naked without your gimmick I f** with Chucks, 501's, and my Russel hoodies Ask me, its how it should be Extra shimmies, nothing to me So what y'all gigging bout Yeah, thats what I can live without It don't affect the verdict when I propose I'm one of the sickest out And when my pen is out it's never been a doubt I take it like 40's marks and turn that sh** dark; Guinness stout No I ain't in a drought Cats can say they better than Me all they want but y'all word ain't worth the reticent The flow is heaven sent Been places you'll have never went That's why you only catch me with the truth Here's the evidence [Hook] [Verse Three: Brother Ali] I be riding through my old hood And I'm in the same whip Number 5 city bus "Ain't you famous?" I used to feel great when they told me that I made it Then got deflated when they spit and said he ain't sh** Nobody ever taught us how to grow Must've missed that episode of that reality show Like, one day you're po', the next day you blow But what's between those two points, nobody know It ain't but one, way to get something done Put this here foot in front of that there other one But TV made us so f**ing dumb How we can't seem to manage how to walk and chew out bubble gum This is not a dance, it's a try, at the lawn Just the track we're on until we die Relay the message of the cats who gone To the one coming next as we pa** the baton [Hook]
