Flow T - Long Story Lyrics

Yeah
It's Flow T Yall
I got a story to tell
Look
Ey
Before my being and my ordinary soul is extinct
Allow me to speak
Get into my brain and take a peek, look
Whether I'm relaxing or doing dishes on the sink
Ey sometimes I like to sit with a sober mind and think
Verily, once upon a time I was a baby too
But lots of things can happen from the age of two to twenty-two
Went from playing with toy cars and homies play with you
To loving the good and hating the bad stuff that your lady do
When babies are born all of them innocent right
They know nothing but sucking milk from tits gripping it tight
But every single day they live they learn
They fall they burn
They listen to other's opinions and speak they turn and 'fore you know it, they don't behave like they did when they was young kids
Treating others according to what they mind brings
Some people like people and some people like the fine things
So before you know it you got a character that's unseen
Now every single thing that you do we observe
And we judge you for all your actions coz our mental is blurred
But what we're judging is the surface we don't know what's inside
That led the people to doing the things they do when they ride
And now you feel like we ain't fair coz we don't know what you been through
And what your mama said to you and the conditions you lived through and had no one to uplift you
Surviving on your own is hard
You'd explain all that to us but my God it's a long story
Yeah
It's a long story
We look at you and see a trouble man
But damn, we don't really understand
It's a long story
Yeah shorty was a shorty just like any other
Thought love is a beautiful thing a lady lover
Until he met a girl that was fly that he liked and hommie went and suggested they should date each other
And so they did, and time went by
They was kicking it hard like they would never say die
Sometimes they was happy, sometimes they'd cry
And everything was all good till another guy came by
A guy that's more fortunate, a guy that's more paid
So he was left hanging
Strolling with an insecure wade
Thinking girls love men with money
But tables turn
The rich could go broke but real love don't fade
And so lil hommie started to reflect
On his own upbringing and dots started to connect
Look, mama left daddy coz he ain't nothing he starving
And went for a brother with a good job and she wilding
So lil hommie had to make up his mind
I got to grind, collect every penny I find
That's all these girls want right?
They don't care about a good guy
As long as you're fly and you getting cash you're on their good side
Lil hommie getting guap now, he scoring big bucks
But looks at every single woman in the eye like she sucks
And all he ever do is hit that but he never let Em stay
Seen with a different girl this and every other day
In his eyes he's protecting himself from heartbreaks by not getting attached
But in other people's eyes, he's a rich womanizer that cheats, he's no good
And why he did it, they never understood its a long story
Uh, yeah
It's a long story
Now lil hommie is the same as that guy that took his girl from him back when he was broke
It's a long story

Yeah
It's Flow T Yall
I got a story to tell
