Blueprint - Long Term lyrics
[Blueprint - Long Term lyrics]
Aha right right
Yeah aha
In my teens I was thinking 'bout my twenties
In my twenties I was
Thinking 'bout my thirties
In my thirties I was
Thinking 'bout my forties
So hopefully in my forties I
Ain’t got to worry
You gotta get it right while
You a younger man
Be your own provider instead of
Holding out your hands
Be the guy people admire when
It hit's the fan not the guy they picking up
'cause he can barely stand
A grown man, not grown just because of years
Grown because you set examples
For all your peers
When the rest disappeared you
Was always there
Ready to sacrifice more blood
Sweat and tears i know hard work and
Discipline ain't glamorous
But, I'll be damned if you see me panhandling
Or acting in a manner that damages my family
The future's coming fast so I plan for it
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
Yeah, huh
On the road of life everybody gets a flat
Only difference is if you
Wanna get it patched
Or invest in a new tire that'll last
Are you thinking long term
When the question's asked
Something to think about that’s what
We should be about
Put it in action everything
That we speak about
There is a hidden price when
We take the easy route
We learn a lot more when
We take the scenic route
The only reason Blueprint gets to speak today
Is due to the foundation built yesterday
Invested in myself when nobody
Else would listen
Poured into myself like I used
To pour my liquor i know hard work and
Discipline ain't glamorous
But, I'll be damned if you see me panhandling
Or acting in a manner that damages my family
The future's coming fast so I plan for it
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
I’m thinking long term (Long term, what?)
(I’m thinking)
(What I'm thinking, what I'm thinking
What what I'm thinking)
(Long term, what I'm thinking
What I'm thinking, what what I'm thinking)
(But, I'll be damned if
You see me panhandling)
(But, I'll be damned if
You see me panhandling)
(Long term, what I'm thinking
What I'm thinking, what what I'm thinking)
(Long term, what I'm thinking
What I'm thinking, what what I'm thinking)
(But, I'll be damned if
You see me panhandling)
(But, I'll be damned if
You see me panhandling)
Yeah aha
