Charlie Hilton - Long Way Home lyrics

[Hook: J.W. Miller] I took the long way home To the middle of nowhere I couldn't find Rome Even though all roads are going there I couldn't find the edge Even if I wanted to jump off it (Yeaaaaaaaaaah!) [Verse 1: Jay Daniels] I see my destination, I know I got d**h awaitin' But when i'm a step away from it, tell it to just be patient All of a sudden me and Royce in similar places, crazy The future ain't bright for me, for him it's now Shady And I'm backwards, everyone sees I'm acting Like I don't feel the pain, but they see me with a reaction Man, I don't know who i'm talking to like a private call Cause fake fans are all around me when my homies fall Ask me how it feels to be unemployed and broke at 20 Tryna pursue a music career and spending every single penny On clothes and accessories, when I got beats and session fee's And my feet are just testing me as i'm walking a long way, please Spare me some knowledge, spare me something man Cause I'm tryna understand as a younger man I'm scared of life, how do I deal with it? I guess I take a mic, and just reveal with it [Hook: J.W. Miller] I took the long way home To the middle of nowhere I couldn't find Rome Even though all roads are going there I couldn't find the edge Even if I wanted to jump off it (Yeaaaaaaaaaah!) [Guitar Break: J.W. Miller] [Verse 2: Jay Daniels] You would think that I'm living life backwards Cause I'm dying to be alive Half of ya'll been trying to escape the fame When i'm waiting to arrive in it And the fans will ride with it, the hatred I survive with it I need the crowd to stand up before I dive in it! Affected by the brain, directed by the heart I work for mine cause I never been connected from the start I seem to always over think the wrong situation And people always think I'm making the wrong stipulation Wake me up from paranoia, I been waiting like a foyer Tryna fill a void in the game, and avoid every lawyer Cause I ain't clearing samples, all I'm clearing is the facts There's nothing else that matters on a Charlie Hilton track [Hook: J.W. Miller] I took the long way home To the middle of nowhere I couldn't find Rome Even though all roads are going there I couldn't find the edge Even if I wanted to jump off it (Yeaaaaaaaaaah!) [Verse 3: Royce Da 5'9"] Yeah No matter how many of my homies say that I'm hot The moment that I stop, they gone which means my ambiance is not And this sh**'s obvious i'm, kind of like a lobbyist I Find it ironic that I, come from poverty and Eating emcee's is my hobby so why would you try me? My, conduct is violent, now, line up in silence (Shhhhhh) I'm taking the long way to d**h, I'm waitin' As a matter of fact, wait, sh**, d**h ain't my destination Be patient, the only home I know is on the go A rolling stone, wipe your feet where I lay my hat Which means, survival is my only means of livin' Money is simply what's taken away and what is given If you take me away, then you're forgiven You just a k**er, I'll go and meet up with Proof and Dilla Me and my little homie JD Until you k** us it's "f** you, pay me" [Hook: J.W. Miller] I took the long way home To the middle of nowhere I couldn't find Rome Even though all roads are going there I couldn't find the edge Even if I wanted to jump off it (Yeaaaaaaaaaah!)
