So long, so long
How do I say so long?
No matter what it takes, hold on
No matter what it takes, go on, on
So long, so long
Such a beautiful setting
Life's good, my music's finally spreading
Looking back on the time when I wasn't getting
The recognition deserved but I'm hanging on by threading
I'm letting go of the guilt and the pain that I once carried
Could've been evicted myself but escaped barely
I rarely make excuses, look what he endured
My girl left the same week I had to leave on tour, damn
And they say that it's perfect timing
Just think of all the women you'll meet in them cities rhyming
But I'm lying if I said I was over it right away
'Cause everything you do in dark comes out in the light of day
I had to readjust my thoughts, put me first
I lost myself in my relationship; it could be worse
But instead he works with more passion than I started with
Rather say it now than resent you because I harbored it
Guarded by my goals, blinded through what I'm searching for
Lost a couple friends but there's
Something more that I'm working towards
Certain reward that you get when you just forget to care
Chasing down someone that's chasing something that isn't there
And to myself it just isn't fair
We all deserve to be happy, I mean who isn't scared
This for my niggas still with me that's bearing this
What good is having success when there's no one to share it with, uh
So long, so long
How do I say so long?
No matter what it takes, hold on
No matter what it takes, go on
And we all know how it is
And we can't let go
Yeah, and it feels like it's more than I can handle
So what am I s'posed to do when life loops like a sample?
And I throw away my crutch and I try to clutch what is cancelled
Nothing left there but despair, no one substantial
And people only see what they wanna see when they want to
I try not to judge 'cause you never know what they goin' through
Goin' through when it's possibly just a phase
Are these rappers better than me? I would contemplate it for days
I stayed in my place unaware of the damage
When you loyal to a fault, some people will take advantage
I managed to get out of the deal I was once in
So what makes you think I would rush to do it again?
If I ever look back, that's the moment I stumbled
There's a very thin line between insecure and humble
Between cocky and confident
But I'm still here so I take both as a compliment, yeah
So long, so long
How do I say so long?
No matter what it takes, hold on
No matter what it takes, go on
And we all know how it is
And we can't let go
So long, so long
How do I say so long?
No matter what it takes, hold on
No matter what it takes, go on
And we all know how it is
And we can't let go
