[Johnson&Jonson, Blu - Long Time Gone lyrics]
And it's Johnny, Johnny
I'm thinking 'bout you now
It seems as though I've known you
For a long long time
(Been such a long time gone) That I had
Come back just to flip through old memories
Asking folks that I know if they remember me
They like, "Nah, not really, B"
Got me rolling up sticky leaves in the park
Where I used to play Little League
I even fucked by the courts on Christmas Eve
Niggas used to just huddle up
And kick a free'
I miss the breeze more than anything
That old feeling of flying through the sky
On a natural high, zoning out rhyming
Sun started shining, eyes start drying
Mouth got crusty, thinking "what was we?"
We was Gods or damn near invincible
Free as stars, livin' life with no principles
Just students being taught through experience
Lost in experiments of life
And it's been such a long time
(Been such a long time gone
I often try to remember)
(Been such a long time gone) That I
Forget how real this shit gets, it's ill
Some kids got killed in the past
And it was hard to get passed
But eventually frowns became laughs
I down a mean glass of Hennessy
Channeling memories
Just to escape shit that's killin' me
I got a bad tendency to
Swallow yak and roll sacks
Just so I can scroll back time, simple me
Remember we was tripping off of
Mr t's gold chain
Wishing we was old enough to hold things?
Like drank and dank pornos and cigarettes
Now all a kid needs is the internet
I been feeling like I've been a vet rhyming
Still trying to get a check, grinding
Everything we dreamed about then is
Too hard to find
But, it's still there stuck in the mind
Just remember the times
