Mobb Deep - So Long lyrics
[Mobb Deep - So Long lyrics]
Close your ears if you ain't
Ready for the real shit straight like that
Uh, check it out
Word is bond, man, some real shit
No matter how long it would take, baby
Y'know what I'm sayin'?
No matter how long
(y'know what I'm sayin'?)
It might seem long
Y'know what I'm sayin'?
Word, straight up and down
I'm coming at you
Y'know what I'm sayin'? I'ma be there
Right or wrong, wrong or right
Right or left, left or right
Why the fuck did your your ass
Have to go and get knocked?
Now you got me on the phone
Straight talkin' to the cops
Tryna verify your government, they
Got you now, they lovin' it
They wanna hang that ass
Couldn't get you in the past
Though I can't say your prime
You was still young at the time
Did a lot of older things
You was ahead of your time
Never told you to slow down
Residual Crown Heights was wild
All I could say was be careful
Give you a dap then bounce
Shit that you went through
Watched the drama amount
Gave a fuck long as you wasn't
Part of the body count now I feel guilty
Half the blame for your incarceration
Should've intervened when you first
Started catching cases
Fuck it, it's done, now you in there
Gotta hold it down
You your mother's only son
And I'ma ride for you, baby
Cause you locked and it's still love
I'm still there, when you get home
I'mma be there
You gotta (hold on) no matter (how long)
And it seems (so long) you gotta (hold on)
No matter (how long) and it seems (so long)
You gotta (hold on) no matter (how long)
And it seems (so long) you gotta (hold on)
No matter (how long) and it seems (so long)
I can't believe they got my dunn
It feel like my fault
Cause I fronted you that money
To get that dough
Any man's held accountable for they action
Still and all I feel responsible
For you being gone i hit yo moms with a half
A K every now & then
Just so you can live and
Keep your little cosmetics
And that five years was worth
The little dough we made
Out of sight, out of mind, naw dawg
It's not me
I miss you, you on my mind daily
Even though I scribe to a nigga, really
You feel me trying to get my shit together
So you could be proud when you touch down
We got businesses to run now
Peep it back how we used to
Run up in a nigga's house
On some petty crime shit
Boy we was not playin' on occassion
I still check ya brotha 'tll the end
Black, and Bone crazy ass
Reading ya letters
I see you ain't lose ya sense of humour
Talkin' to you on the phone
Made my day cooler
Tellin' me, how you duff the COs out
You need to bring your black ass
Home and cut that bullshit out
I could remember me and Killa would test
Our new guns in the projects
Cause that's where police won't come
Illa Ghee, my nigga 'till death do us
You almost home, until then, hold ya head
Dunn
You gotta (hold on) no matter (how long)
And it seems (so long) you gotta (hold on)
No matter (how long) and it seems (so long)
You gotta (hold on) no matter (how long)
And it seems (so long) you gotta (hold on)
No matter (how long) and it seems (so long)
Ready for the real shit straight like that
Uh, check it out
