So Long

Lyrics

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
 It's fucked 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 shits get real
 Addicted to prescription pills
 I'm just out here tryna get these deals
 Every week, another kid gets killed
 Lord, please don't let me start this
 These kids now, is so heartless
 These trailers park and apartments
 But they told me home is where my heart is
 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
 They 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 matter 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 glass pipe
 Cop's in the neighborhood with their flashlight
 Mamma keep prayin' that she gets her path right
 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
 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
