John Skeete - Long Way Lyrics

I done came a long way
To tell the truth
Had to love myself
And make these moves
Living my life
The way I choose
And now that I'm hot I'm a play it cool

I done came a long way
Ooooooo
See they never thought I'd make it
Ooooooo

Roll roll with the kid
I'm a show you what it is
Busy getting to the biz
Lost a lot of friends aye
Took my shots to the chin
Struggle to find that win
But now the racks coming in
Got the money flooding in!
Work hard work hard
Grind harder
That's the motto
Telling the truth
Let it go, let it go feel the flow
Every-time I'm in the booth
Grind glow, grind glow
Now I'm out here on the road doing shows
Love myself, love myself
Now I'm glowing wrist and neck
Draped in gold
Used to dub me
Now I'm poppin
Used to steal
Now I'm shopping
Ballin like I'm a Houston Rocket
Now I'm cocky no James Harden
Confidence but they swear it's pride
Haters always tryna minimize
Always got somn to criticize
I apply the pressure
Then I rise

I done came a long way
To tell the truth
Had to love myself
And make these moves
Living my life
The way I choose
And now that I'm hot I'm a play it cool

I done came a long way
Ooooooo
See they never thought I'd make it
Ooooooo

I was so insecure
There's no metaphor
For when you walked out the door
Leaving me on all fours
Now these shawties hit my line
Cuz they see I'm confident
Say they wanting me
Cuz they loving what they see
I got the fire beats and a little green
But they didn't even believe
When it was John Skeete number 3
Tank and the stomach that stayed on E
Tears that I cried into the bed sheets
Day and night, night and day getting no sleep
Tryna scrub away the hurt and pain no bleach
Lessons turned to blessings and the blessings
Turned to lessons even though
I was stressing
I just hope you the essence
Life is like salad might get a little messy
I just wanna be the one on top like dressing

I done came a long way
To tell the truth
Had to love myself
And make these moves
Living my life
The way I choose
And now that I'm hot I'm a play it cool

I done came a long way
Ooooooo
See they never thought I'd make it
Ooooooo
