Long Way To Go (Intro) Josh A

[Intro]
Gonna bring me down
Gonna bring me down
Gonna bring me down, oh
Yeah

[Verse]
When I was a kid, I used to dream for it
I'd stay up late every night, I lost sleep for it
I overcame so many traumas, left 'em all in the past
I done cut my scars open, now I bleed for it
Look, it used to hurt when they laughed
Some nights I'd stare up at the ceiling, second guessin' my path
But when times got tough and when it all went bad
Man, I'm grateful for the music, that was all that I had
My escape from my problems at home, from feelin' alone
I'd just make some brand new beats and spit off of thе dome
I'd keep notebooks all around me еverywhere I'd go
Nah, this not a song, this a piece of my soul
People used to ask me when I'd give it up
But if you thought you had a chance, would you give it up?
Like, would you chase it while the people 'round you live it up?
'Cause when I'm old, I'm never askin' if I did enough
Like, even with all the drama and pain, bipolar rottin' my brain
Everything, I overcame, I won't complain
Because it's more than the music, yeah, it's deeper than killin' tracks
A broke kid out of Florida, got my state up on my back
Yeah, it's not about the fame or the money or gettin' plaques
It's the fact that I can make a difference
Yeah, so if you got a dream, you better chase it
Time is of the essence and the reaper is impatient
If you got a dream, go and take it
It's only one life, so you probably shouldn't waste it
And I've been feelin' blessed, looked within, I'm redefinin' myself
Like, will I be one of the best? Only time will tell
