letra de came a long way - sihow the doctor

{intro]
yeah life ain’t what it seems
2016 moved to the city of cream
with a dollar and a dream ultralight beam
i knew my life had to be on to bigger better things
wanted to be the professor that i never had
first and last black professor that they’ll ever have
that’s the type of sh-t that used to make a n-gga mad
hope there’s more to your life than chasing a f-cking bag (yeah)

never was i in the class trying to change minds
i be in the classroom trying to change lives (yеah)
huey newton revolutionary suicidе (black panther)
the spook that sat by the ivory tower, i’m in disguise
year 35 still eyes on the prize (still)
star trekking, next generation, no enterprise
a black mind they could never ever gentrify
haters try to bury me but like maya still i riiiiise (up)
to the occasion, always on my feet that’s a standing ovation
yeah i’m bout to pour all these lyrical libations
into your soul fam this a dedication (pour it up)
to the ongoing struggle for liberation
ain’t a hood n-gga but i’m hood n-gga adjacent
may need more than education for what we facing
tell my people never be complacent (never)
i keep my 10 toes down cemented
and reinvented (yeah)
what it meant to be a professor (yeah)
and stayed authentic
even though along the way many got offended (uh huh)
they thought i was too n-gga to be an academic
nwa (yeah) with a phd (yeah)
i tell you right now they never getting rid of me (never)
finally i think they beginning to really see
i’mma just gunna keep going on like infinity
[chorus]
i came a long way from little poor black boy
rocking bugle boy
on my back was a jansport
fast forward, now i’m getting stamps on the passport
looking 6’9 based on everything i stand for
i came a long way from little poor black boy
rocking bugle boy
on my back was a jansport
fast forward, now i’m getting stamps on the passport
looking 6’9 based on everything i stand for

yeah in the year 2022
relocated to miami now i’m throwing up the u (the u)
looking at my life still can’t believe it’s true
wishing my grandma was here so she could see it too (miss you}
social mobility might be bringing me different views (yeah)
but my memories of where i came from i’ll never lose (never)
sacrificed so much for these dreams that i have pursued
nothing came easy, ah naw i over paid my dues (yeah)
ain’t looking for sympathy for the life i choose
had no other options but to win i couldn’t lose (no)
i run marathons around the world in they kicks
and bet they couldn’t even two step in my f-cking shoes (facts!)
yeah, i’m came a long way from santa cruz (yeah)
never on the right angle, i was more hypotenuse (yeah)
poetically handle doubt on my langston hughes (uh huh)
this negro speaks of rivers and these po’ boy blues
yeah without any clues, i too, sing america what will we do
got that phd and the struggle stills ensues
sad to see some of us sell our soul for the revenue
couldn’t be me though naw real through and through
this above all, to thine own self be true
first i dream it then i live it deja vu
making something out of nothing just like we always do
[chorus]
i came a long way from little poor black boy
rocking bugle boy
on my back was a jansport
fast forward, now i’m getting stamps on the passport
looking 6’9 based on everything i stand for
i came a long way from little poor black boy
rocking bugle boy
on my back was a jansport
fast forward, now i’m getting stamps on the passport
looking 6’9 based on everything i stand for

[outro]
yeah, life ain’t what it seems
2016 moved to the city of cream
with a dollar and a dream ultralight beam
i knew my life had to be on to bigger better things
