Going The Distance

Verse 1:

No sleep and no slick eyes

Signed and sealed by demeanors still content with demise

Opinions presented with so much to hide

And the consensus is preventing the tide, voila

Too many niggas doing the most but ain’t doin nada

Different shades at the tip of a hat like tie dye

Spur of the moment, don’t bury the moment

She know me well and that’s more than I’m ever really used to condoning

I take it easy in spite of the ropes

Kuz some shawtys thought they had it down pat but they never was close

And they still ain’t have better results

2am messages asking why I went ghost

Or why the issues never deaded in fear of where it’s just headed

And why ya nigga protected by his bitch it’s not respected

I get it, I hold grudges, I’m honest, I know the rules

Supposed to give a fuck but these days I rarely do

 

Bridge:

Head fuming and twisted

I’m seeing it different

What’s this life we living

I needed some distance

I needed to pivot or backstroke

Whatever’s needed

Always pleaded my case rather than concede it

 

Verse 2:

Brothers in arms those my brothers in war

Brothers together bleed it whenever they going at yours

So busy pointing at them rather than working on us

Too busy preaching about it without establishing trust

Instigating other beef without preventing ours

6 years close as fuck how we fall apart

I guess, when ya brothers turn rivals

And the system despise you

That’s just you looking at rifles

Gotta throw out the cycle

Fire squad on entire squads

We used to dream on them higher parts by a far

Stepping in Louboutins gliding between the pawns

Cartier on our arms the diamonds resemble stars

The gold is rose and the turtleneck never folds

Cause it’s placed so precise and the woman are on our right

Murdered out suits while awards are being presented

Ain’t concerned with winning cause honestly that’s a giving
