leon legacy – the distance lyrics

[verse 1]
the place i’m at now, i ain’t ready to back down
sick of living life in a place that’s full of mad doubt
been my own man, since the day that my dad bounced
tried to quiet the pain, rolled up about a half ounce
it was supposed to be clarences parents marriage
losing touch with my family i’m too busy inhaling
my grandma getting sicker i’m popping pills and i’m railing
as the cancer eats my auntie alive, eyes to the ceiling each night
trying to come back to reality
cook up an instrumental and turn it into a casualty
the school of hard knocks, i graduated i’m faculty
take this f-ckin’ pain and turn it into a masterpiece
for all these kids, with tired eyes ad a dream
’cause the world says to be this and i just try to be me
i just try to be, we could tie these lies to a tree
and k!ll off my inhibition` and fly as high as a free f-ckin’ bird

[pre-chorus 1]
thats that lynyrd skynyrd sh-t
you know how at every open mic there’s that
one person that yells “play free bird”this songs for you

[chorus]
cuz you know that we ain’t going nowhere without you
and you know if you leave, we’ll never stop thinking about you
please don’t stop, no
meet me at the top, whoa
you gave me a lot, so
i hope you can listen, no matter the distance
i swear i got you

[verse 2]
my nephew misses his mom, swear it isn’t his dads fault
she foundsyringes same time that she found the asfault
not every dad is deadbeat but last call
means some kids won’t see daddy tonight, thats all
and thats a bad fall, i guess addiction will
seem to some families, some place, be fictional
i sit and spill out my guts for all the kids that still
wish they could hide from the pain inside invisible
maybe i’m cynical, maybe i’m broken
the distance it grows greater and all the while i’m hoping
the depth of all of the pain, won’t amount to the ocean
find a way we can cope and maybe we’l grow close
and pretend it never effected us, made us feel we were never love
they say that god had a plan i think he set us up
cuz we we’re h-lla f-cked, no one ever protected us
trying to climb up outt’a the bottom so we could get above

[pre-chorus 2]
above all of the pain, and above all of the tears
but most of all, above all of the fears…
this ones for you

[bridge]
you know we gon’ be alright
you know we gon’ be alright
you know it’s gon’ be alright
i promise it’ll be alright
shawty it’ll be alright
lil’ homie it’ll be alright
you know me it’ll be alright
you know that it’ll be all

[outro]
swear i got you
swear i got you
swear i got you

swear i got you
swear i got you
swear i got you

swear i got you
(and we’ll be all, we’ll be all, alright)
swear i got you
(and we’ll be all, we’ll be all, alright)
swear i got you

swear i got you
(and we’ll be all, we’ll be all, alright)
swear i got you
(and we’ll be alright, we’ll be alright)
swear i got you
