[Intro]
Yeah yeah
I came a long way
[Verse 1]
And I been riding around, searching for a better meaning
I really think they don't notice me because they never seen it
One in a million, what a wonderful feeling
I made this promise now I just want to fulfill it
Like, girl I hope you know I love you though I'm changing
But all my n***as been treating me like I'm famous
And this is all that I wanted I ain't complaining
But if I keep it 100 this sh** is draining
Cause now they call me fake
They used to never call me back
And now she call me bae, she used to never call me that
And I ain't falling back in love because it's all a trap
I tell her “life ain't fair” and then I call a cab
I got no love for you I'm so broken and heartless
I couldn't do enough for you, I was working my hardest
Trying to manage being a better man and a better artist
Should've known it was a lie when you said you loved me regardless
See? I see the good in people
And I feel like it's so bad for me
I look for god cause I know the devil is after me
And I ain't never feel nothing except this agony
But if I died right now, it would be a tragedy
[Hook]
Cause I done came a long way
Yeah, I done came a long way
[Verse 2]
And I be lying if I told you I ain't think about the paper
The hoes and the shows and stunting on all my haters
But lately I've been feeling my purpose is something greater
Like maybe I could help you gon' face what you been afraid of
This food for thought and it's catered
I just really hope they hearing me
I love the struggle cause lately it's been maturing me
We used to sleep on that sofa it was just her and me
That's when I knew I loved you for an eternity
I had no one beside me and to hold me down for real
I never had no one to stop me and just tell me about myself
I always came off way too co*ky even when I needed help
I'll never let a label sign me then just put me on the shelf
I got too much to say, to just be brushed away
I need my momma not to have to work another day
I'm sick of being so dependent
Staying where my brothers stay
It's time to find a way out
Or time to find another way
