Justin Stone - Long Time Coming lyrics
[Justin Stone - Long Time Coming lyrics]
Yo, never conversin' with my critics
I won't give 'em time of day
I'm writing different from the rest
Leave my incision in the game
Heart into this music with my
Face up in the frame
'Cause you ain't never seen a white kid
Do this I like I can moved to Columbus
Now all of Ohio show me love
If we talkin' hometown artist that will
Make it I'm the one
Perception is what you see
Nobody had my vision back when I
Was writin' in that class
I never paid attention
Tearin' down the stage forget
About a desk job
Gettin' girls and chasin' dreams
Swear I got the best job
I ain't making money
But I swear I got some perks
Tryna land a deal before they
Throw me in a hearse
Tell that label I don't need 'em
Loving all this freedom
All my fans are gettin' hungry so
I got music to feed 'em
These girls be gettin' thirsty
Brought some Aquafina
On the stage, you make it rain
Like reenacting Katrina, hello
Señorita My name is Justin, where you from?
Maybe I could make you mine well
If you don't break my funds
Heard that I was fluent in French
She must be speaking tongues
Crazy how a year ago nobody showed me love
Now they do
Everybody in my city coming through
Put Ohio on my back
I've been grinding where were you?
When I didn't have the fanbase and
I didn't have the buzz
Now these women hit me up because
They know what I'll become and that's BS
So I don't respond to their text
Living in the moment
Down for whatever is next
I've been on a new high
And I'm loving the view to have a good time
I don't need that vodka with juice
Complacent is all you is
You just try to be like everyone
I'm just tryna be myself
You won't find another one
Writin' 'bout my life and my
Perception that I see
Used to wanna be like them and
Now I wanna be like me
Bringing content back to music
God given gift and I use it
Facing all these demons
Get that money or you lose it
Had to take a risk I threw it in
Walking in like, "Who is him?"
I'm the one you're 'bout know
So I don't need your compliments
Faking all this confidence until
I actually got it
Paying all my bills tend to
Empty out my wallets
That's cool, I'm getting by
Made a killing genocide
I'll be making six figures in
My prime but it's gonna
Take some time to get where I wanna be
Remember nobody but my brother
Had faith in me
Now they tell me all the time
That I'm blowing up the scene
Man, I feel like Michael Bay
Like I'm Scruby on this beat
Ohio, I made it back
In the city that I grew up in
You think you are family but you
Are just some common kin, no mannequin
I'm Anakin, using force, you can't handle him
Ballin' on these rookies
Play you suckers like a mandolin
I'll let the fame ride out
When it's suppose to i'm sorry ladies
You're the ones I can't get close to
I'll show you love
But I can never really stay
'Cause I have some dreams of
Flyin' different cities everyday
I can't stay around and settle down
I got things to pursue
If you're down and you support me, baby
You'll be coming too
Let's be real, I'm bouta make it
Long time coming
Weren't with me from the jump won't
Be there when I am somethin', what up
Yeah been a long time comin'
Been a long time comin'
I won't give 'em time of day
I'm writing different from the rest
Leave my incision in the game
Heart into this music with my
Face up in the frame
'Cause you ain't never seen a white kid
Do this I like I can moved to Columbus
Now all of Ohio show me love
If we talkin' hometown artist that will
