Long Time Lyrics

Cashmoneyap
B-b-b-boyfifty
Long, long, long time
Long, long, long time
Lil TJay

Diamonds, they dancin' all over my body
You try to take them it turn to a homi'
Thotties be on me, I just catch the Mosi'
Sippin' on lean, now I feel like a zombie
I'm wit' the gang, it be dumb if you try me
I tell my hoes, "Rake it up," like Yo Gotti
I do my thing and I fuck up a party
Niggas that hate, they gonna wanna say "Sorry"
Free my guys, I ain't seen 'em in a long, long, long time
We gon' shine, that's the reason why I stay on my grind
Niggas dyin', that's the reason why I stay near my nine
Can't be mine, made a promise that we all gon' be fine

Yeah, whoa
Nigga, I switch up my flow
Yeah, bro, all of my niggas on go
Pesos, niggas ain't gettin' to those
I put my necklace on froze
I put a band on my toes
This was a dream, now my goals gettin' bigger
Bringin' all my niggas
Ooh, we don't care 'bout the opps, they don't bust no triggers
Yeah, yeah
I had to get on my Birkin, just so they see that I'm workin'
Spinnin' the Wraith, we ain't duckin' from the jakes
Legal money in the safe
I remember them days locked down in the cage
Calender full of days
Camera see my whole face
Got sentenced on the case
Maxed out to the day (nah)
They ain't cut me no break
They ain't cut me no break

Diamonds, they dancin' all over my body (body)
You try to take them it turn to a homi' (homi')
Thotties be on me, I just catch the Mosi' (Mosi')
Sippin' on lean, now I feel like a zombie (zombie)
I'm wit' the gang, it be dumb if you try me
I tell my hoes, "Rake it up," like Yo Gotti
I do my thing and I fuck up a party
Niggas that hate, they gonna wanna say "Sorry"
Free my guys, I ain't seen 'em in a long, long, long time
We gon' shine, that's the reason why I stay on my grind
Niggas dyin', that's the reason why I stay near my nine
Can't be mine, made a promise that we all gon' be fine

Niggas hate, they so fake, tryna stand up in my face
Skipping states, on probabtion so I swear this shit ain't safe
They be lyin', lyin', lyin', lyin', lyin' on my name
I was cryin', cryin', cryin', broski died up in my face
So much pain, no gain, feel like music all I got
Feel like I let broski down if we don't make it to the top
Nigga run up, I don't know him, swear to God I'm sendin' shots
I was posted on the corner tryna sell shit like the Ocks
Bodies drop, bodies drop
Swear to God this shit won't stop
Bodies drop, bodies drop
Swear to God this shit won't stop
They be lyin', lyin', lyin', lyin', lyin' on my name
I was cryin', cryin', cryin', broski died up in my face

Diamonds, they dancin' all over my body (body)
You try to take them it turn to a homi' (homi')
Thotties be on me, I just catch the Mosi' (Mosi')
Sippin' on lean, now I feel like a zombie
I'm wit' the gang, it be dumb if you try me
I tell my hoes, "Rake it up," like Yo Gotti
I do my thing and I fuck up a party
Niggas that hate, they gonna wanna say, "Sorry"
Free my guys, I ain't seen 'em in a long, long, long time
We gon' shine, that's the reason why I stay on my grind
Niggas dyin', that's the reason why I stay near my nine
Can't be mine, made a promise that we all gon' be fine

Long, long, long time
Long, long, long time
Long, long, long time
Yeah, yeah, yeah

What is the Meaning of Long Time?

In this introspective narrative, a young artist reflects on his journey from street life to success while grappling with personal loss and ongoing challenges. The track explores themes of loyalty to imprisoned friends, the weight of responsibilities to fallen companions, and the constant vigilance required to maintain newly acquired status. Through vivid imagery of material wealth contrasted with memories of hardship, the artist portrays the duality of his existence - celebrating achievement while remaining connected to his roots. The recurring motif of "long time" emphasizes both separation from incarcerated associates and the extended path to success. The lyrics reveal vulnerability beneath a tough exterior, particularly when addressing the loss of close friends and the pressure to achieve success in their memory. #StreetToSuccess #LoyaltyAndLoss #SurvivalMentality
