[verse 1]

i thought i could escape everything with wealth
drinking hard, smoking hard, out all night
smiling at you just because i want you gone
why are you asking me how i’m dealin with death for ?

stop asking me how i’m doing, i’m not doing
i stopped living the day they did the same thing
had a dream where we took a family picture woke up
and cried, they were gone, so i’m writing down this letter

they left and my world went thicker, i figured
they were everything that held me together
and i’d be dead already if it wasn’t for my brothers
i saw you trying to shoulder-slap me, dont bother

i heard you talking at the funerals but didn’t listen
tryin’ to figure out if it was worth it being a christian
i read the books and asked myself ‘am i believing ?”
if we all end up dying, is it worth it to be livin’ ?

i was a queen on a throne but i lost my crown
like the governor of a ghost town
tried swimming through death but i drowned
wreslting to survive but life choked me down

[chorus]

it’s been the longest ride
without you by my side
maybe tonight’s the night
i finally say goodbye

it’s been the longest ride
even with you by my side
and i’m crying tonight
cause you didn’t say goodbye

[verse 2]

i’m looking for a meaning, have you seen it ?
i hope they can see me, i ain’t no john cena
i hope they can see me, crying my heart out on a stupid beat
and if they can see me, death won i’ve been defeated

but i keep on hanging on, look mommy, i’m super strong !
and i’m the one with the sniper when the guns are drawn
i don’t need you making me believe you backed me up
i gave you a whole opportunity and you gave back a stub

no you’re not sorry, i can hear it in your voice
i’m still grieving, i don’t have much of a choice
if you’re looking for a meaning, i keep it in a vault
maybe they’re amongst the stars, and it was my own fault

forgivin’ all of you people because that’s how i was raised
but when i see all the bullsh-t you’ve pulled i’m amazed
your bullsh-t made me grow up but trust me lie never pays
i’m sorry, dissing you on track was one of the easy ways

i have new friends telling me they’ll catch me if i fall
i never told them it’s been years i lost my soul
ain’t no one that helped me get up i don’t recall
it don’t change sh-t when you tell me to stand tall

and now i’m here walking down the street
i’m the rich white kid that lost everything
and i hoped you’d hold me in your wings
f-ck i fell and realized life hangs on a string

funny how life changes with a phone call
no brick no concrete but death is a huge wall

[chorus]

it’s been the longest ride
without you by my side
maybe tonight’s the night
i finally say goodbye

it’s been the longest ride
even with you by my side
and i’m crying tonight
cause you didn’t say goodbye

[verse 3]

i miss you all so much you don’t know
i never drove cause i wanted you to teach me how to do so
you left too soon so i keep it on the low
rapping about an impala i’ll never get to show

the best don’t leave first but they leave unfairly
oh i see, life is beautiful but losing is pricey

i remember that one day you were by my side
and destiny calls, the next day you left real quick
if that’s how i’m supposed to live
then guess what, d-mn i f-cking quit
