Jelly Roll - So Long lyrics

[Intro] So long it feels like forever sometimes, you know As long as you keep progressing don't worry about sh** Hey shout out to the homie Yelawolf Slumerican wattup? The Biggest Loser [Hook: Jelly Roll] I've been rolling down these dirty back old roads For so long, so long, so long, so long, so long I left the house when I was young And told my mamma "I'm grown", "I'm grown", "I'm grown" I'm gone, I'm gone.. [Verse 1: Jelly Roll] It's f**ed up on this side of the fence Seen 'em die just to tryna get rich Seen 'em die just to tryna pay rent Man I don't make no sense Ever since I was a younger boy Everybody told me I was a goner lord But I wanted more Than selling these packs at the corner store Switch the game up and the sh**s get real Addicted to prescription pills I'm just out here tryna get these deals Every week another kid gets k**ed Lord please don't let me start this These kids now is so heartless These trailers parks and appartments But the told me home is where my heart is [Hook] [Verse 2: Jelly Roll] The say white trash is a state of mind That's all I see in the state of mine Did what I did and I stayed alive And It's been like this since '85 So many nights on these hopeless streets Mamma's at the kitchen table smoking weed Ridin' round cathin' plays on Capri's Only things that matters here Who's got the dope for cheap's Late nights, prayed to god Mamma worked hard, had two jobs Either you trap or you rob Only two options against all odds That's right, fast life Dreams turn to smoke at the end of a gla** pipe Cop's in the neighborhood with their flashlight Mamma keep prayin' that she gets her path right [Hook: X2] [Verse 3: Yelawolf] Like a young little misfit f** the world homie I was smoking dope by the age of ten Life wouldn't nothin' But an everyday hunt to catch a buzz Because of my friends Well 16 to 19 So I'd be up to the 19th high with no ID Despite me that ya'll right and smiling The boy that I played in school was so frightening I look at kids like 13 and think "f** man" Who the hell were the people around me then? I suppose that I could've made a better choice But better choice's requires a better option You wanna lift? I'm shopping Wanna ride around the block? Buddy hop in It's a winter wonderland Yeah round white dust from the gra** She's credit card chopping Hey Mamma, I love you but it's only right That I'm gonna try that sh** someday Didn't think that day would be the 3rd day After my 15th f**in' birthday Could've been a hearse Pull up at the church, pickin' me up But the lord had mercy But I dropped that sh** then I picked up the fifth And till this day I'm still thirsty [Hook: X2]
