It's Been a Long Time

It's been a long Time
I'm the diamond found in the gold mine
Pen to paper it's go time
The the old times we climbed trees
Now we smoke vines like
Oh, My
Don't know if it's bird or plane
But it's so high
Holding my piano while watching my brudda soul fly
Shoulder told me let it out
Other shoulder said don't cry
Imagine starring up at ceiling for weeks with no sky
Smoking your brains out
knowing that your pockets is bone dry
It's been a long time

I'm at this party in the back smoking Hennessy
Good girls void the kid
Bad girls feeling me
Wearing crystals no wonder they keep the same energy
Cut ties like hogties getting saved by your enemy
Yeah I got little more buzz but it ain't no friend in me
Imma science project gon wrong
I spit it chemically
recently started writing outside
To catch a vibe
Staring at the water with my book open to let my sentence breath
It's been a long time
It's been a long time
But I still spit it
Yeah the artist still villain
Eight is why the wheels spinning
20 years later graduated
And I'm still sinning
Seen my grandfather in the casket
And he still grinning
Knowing imma make it big
Hotter than them Haitian kids
Momma told me Go and get a job Instead off taking shit
And get your ass up
You gotta move when the nature shifts
And stop running away from problems
You just gotta go face the Bitch
It's been a long time
