We've come a long way from nowhere The road was often paved with tears & pain, tears & pain Life, sometimes we're dumb as toys on a shelf Tryina fix someone else but we can't fix our own selves Got a plank in our eye tryina talk about a toothpick That is not productive, that is more like useless Our job is to love, let God be the judge Stop bein' so critical, we are all people We are all equal, we are all familiar We all got our wicked ways, we are all peculiar We're pocketless souls, fighting over green But temporary money buys temporary things That's why 'm not tryina temporary bling If you're rich without Christ you're just a temporary king So love, love & give all that you got And chase after love like it's gold in a pot And when you find it hold on cause you're holding alot Cause we were made to love, & love is all we got We've come a long way from nowhere The road was often paved with tears & pain As cupid arose Shootin' eros arrows That echoed through boroughs Like barrels with shells You can count on sea shores of hell cock back fade to black read the credits of the tale Epic how quail fell on the trail but pales when compared to that manna that grew stale I mean! I rather be free and eat bread with less spice Than reminisce when i was a slave eaten' chicken fried rice Blow the dice I'm feline' it seven off my finger tips My militance is diligence I feel as if you throw salt on my eternal life process You probably wont appreciate my progress I always see people through the light of their strength Speak through the vent of my weakness And vow to never know where my peek If you neglect these elementary teachings Go back and relay your cement I done came a long way
