MIC the Rapper - Long Time Coming

It’s been a long time coming still be chasin a dream
Fate has been a thief its gettin hard to believe
Seen a lot of bark just like a part of a tree
Prayin for the peace so watch em drop to their knees like
What does the future hold we movin slow only hear the truth be told
We shoot for gold be careful not to lose your soul
So many snakes in the grass so when you shoot reload
But I’ve been having trouble to face it a phase of impatience
That had me fuckin lost in the paintin
The pain that’s its taken to fuckin take me out of the basement
May be portrayed in a way i never wanted created
I guess that’s what happens
Had a blast and wouldn’t change the captions
Never sit on the passion just a man of action
Future looks bright but still livin up in the past tense
It’s been a long, it’s been a really long time
It’s been a long, how long has it been
It’s been a long, a long time comin
It’s been a long, it’s been a really long time
It’s been a long, how long has it been
It’s been a long, a long time comin
It’s been a long time coming shouldn’t play with the beast
Make em believe that we been here n playin for keeps
N waitin to see if we can make it to be
The fuckin shepperd to the sheep that all just follow the speech
And the honour is mine sorry
But I been lost in my mind
Hard to define the words are gettin harder to find
So you either listen to this
Or you just stick to the script
Been lookin for the door but this a prison of bricks
The image is crisp you’ll never catch me givin a shit
Just finna piff while we makin a hit
I’ll take a minute now
Shit time still tickin n I seen the plot thicken
Can a mutha fucka get a lil time out
This my house dawg how ya’ll get the keys
I’m been off in a dream so ya’ll just best believe
That I been pushin for something since I been caught in the dungeon
But now we risin above it
It’seen a long time comin common
It’s been a long, it’s been a really long time
It’s been a long, how long has it been
It’s been a long, a long time comin
It’s been a long, it’s been a really long time
It’s been a long, how long has it been
It’s been a long, a long time comin
Lotta talk of the future but we live in the now
Everything I thought of i been writin it down
They wanna bring the sound so back to the basics
That we smashin our heads the second the base hits
So face it the game is now shameless not playin
So slave in some change with your pages
Unleashed from the cages
Yea we breakin out the bars
I’m headed for stars knowin this a hell of a start
They say I’ve lost my marbles or I dropped some cargo
Pulled the plug because I like the dark more
This artform took me out side the box
Got the ball they screamin take the shot
I might just change it all can’t wait to drop
Every single day i had to think alot whether I make it or not
Still remains to be seen I just put in too much so I ain’t bout to retreat
It’s been a long, it’s been a really long time
It’s been a long, how long has it been
It’s been a long, a long time comin
It’s been a long, it’s been a really long time
It’s been a long, how long has it been
It’s been a long, a long time comin
