Various Artists - Long Run lyrics

[Verse 1] Time changes, new faces Old best friends, new strangers New watch just to keep up with the paces New game plan, off to new places I got a feeling I can win this race I've found my pace The only thing that you can do for me is please stay out my way No come around my way, unless you got something to pay I'm trying to find a place where I can free my mind Where I don't need my 9, ain't to need for crime I ain't worried about losing, focused on winning God forgive me for my sinning, but this is the beginning Ugh, I pray to God that I don't catch another sentence Got a paragraph in case someone wants to listen Yeah, sometimes I wish I had some wings so I can fly away And all you haters talking sh**, ya'll can die today Uh, but I then think if I die today Well if I got to go, make it right away Yeah, cause I want to live dying But if I got to go if I would rather die through trying[?] [Hook] We only just began Yeah I'm here for the Long Run, la la long run We only just began Still nothing new but the money, still nothing new but the money We only just began [Verse 2: Jerreau] And I keep my head up like a point guard They say I got a shot, shoot for the stars Please don't fight my battles I need these scars, cause they make me who I are Lord knows I came far, but not far enough My dreams ain't close enough I lust for the touch I'm infatuated wit private jets and such To ask for, is that too much? I remember mattresses on the table - no box spring, no bed frame I refrain from sleep, these dreams keep me awake I walk around in a cold sweat day dream On my blackberry, emailing, plotting wit my team Is it as hard as it seems? Or hard as we make it? I gotta make it like it don't exist And if you feel me n***a pump ya fist And if you love me girl, blow a kiss [Hook] We've only just begun Yea I'm here for the long run, la la long run We've only just begun Still nothin' move but the money Still nothin' new but the money We've only just begun [Verse 3] Uh; Late nights early mornings And my days are gettin' longer When does night become the morning? I live my life on the edge And I woke up hung over, wishin' I could start over In my lifetime, regrets look over my shoulder I hope I'm gettin' wiser, cause I'm only gettin' older I pray tomorrow I make better mistakes I feel enslaved, I'm over worked and under paid Damn But I got on my favorite J's I'm jumpin' out the window, I'm taking a leap of faith And if you feel me n***a pump ya fist And if you love me girl, blow a kiss
