letra de the long route - substantial

we want change and we need it on the double. you know
but tamara dobson said, “progress has to be a slow thing for it to be definite.”
that’s real
so i hit up tamara wellons and we decided to take the long route home
let’s go

we rarely choose the path where success is all but secure
we test our limits daily, ensuring we’re built for more
stepping over bodies that’s washing up on the shore
ironically they wasn’t, self-doubtеrs seldom endure
i’m no strangеr to struggle i’ve become a connoisseur
no stand-in for experience, wisdom ain’t in brochures
but i find greatness synonymous with a journey that’s arduous
surviving don’t always make you popular with the populace
some would rather give posthumous recognition
easier to miss than love you, cause love requires commitment
back when i was a pauper but chose to offer enrichment
i named my nephew w3alth… long before we knew what rich meant
not defined by my pigment but guided by my descendants
and in this hour of chaos, this moment’s barely a minute
or millisecond but when you heard it the realness beckoned
they’re still born out of lies, we call that a misconception

we took the long route home
going thru the unknown
our yellow lights turned green
we hold on to our song
we took the long route home
going thru the unknown
our yellow lights turned green
we hold on to our song

we rarely choose a path where success is all but secure
we test our limits daily, ensuring we’re built for more
they stepped over my body while washing up on the shore
ironically i wasn’t, self-doubters seldom endure
i’m no stranger to struggle i’ve become a connoisseur
no stand-in for experience, wisdom ain’t in brochures
but i find greatness synonymous with a journey that’s arduous
surviving don’t always make you popular with the populace
some would rather give posthumous recognition
easier to miss than love you, cause love requires commitment
back when i was a pauper but chose to offer enrichment
i named my nephew w3alth… long before we knew what rich meant
not defined by my pigment but a proud descendant of men and women
who knows what winning in our country in this skin meant
an independent family man with a penchant
for finding love without limits beyond the hate and resentment

you know the pressure we under is unrelenting
and it seems the distance we traveled is never-ending
questioned our decisions when life is testing our gumption
and learned that goals ain’t really last stops, they’re more like junctions
paths that lead to businesses, others that lead to babies
some that lead to a classroom and others lead to stages
some that lead you to prison and others, an early grave
but i found heaven on earth while searching the path i paved
but sun ain’t take to time to chill, this took time to build
finding each other’s easy, the hard part’s to find the will
to keep the ship afloat when others give up hope
wind in each other’s sails or an anchor when we need it most
so before the curtain call or they pound the gavel
i answered when my purpose called, we got ground to travel
locale don’t matter when the tank’s full as your heart is
seen the world but home is still where my heart and the art is

we took the long route home
going thru the unknown
our yellow lights turned green
we hold on to our song

i took the long route, no doubt, and went all out
and went… and went and went all out
i took the long route, no doubt, and went all out
and went… and went and went all out
i took the long route, no doubt, and went all out
and went… and went and went all out
i took the long route, no doubt, and went all out
and went… and went and went all out
