temarké - long way home lyrics

you know there something crazy i started to notice
maybe it’s because i’m getting older
so there’s a shift in my focus
i remember when rappers moved
like music was their only option
now i am seeing rappers that hardly move
they all stopping
once in a while rappers, they got nothing to lose
only think about the studio when they got nothing to do
their passion comes and goes
like it was just a season
ask em’ why they do music
they barely spring up a reason
they fall like the autumn leaves
and tossed aside by the wind
that light they was chasing yeah it really started to dim
dreams looked hard to obtain
yeah chances looked thin
when real life shows up fear starts to creep in
so they draw back and put the mic down
passion is what they lack
man i see why you stopped now
the whole thing was all just an act
but nonetheless it really breaks my heart
i thought they were fully committed
right from the start
[chorus]
i realized
this ain’t a road that was made for everyone
so say goodbye
cause’ you look around
and you can’t see anyone
that’s how it goes
not everybody can operate in this zone
that’s how it goes
not everybody can take the long way home

please don’t get it twisted
and think that i’m just hating
take a moment to grasp and capture the words that i’m saying
i done seen this very thing happen right to my face
it’s so familiar with me cause i genuinely have had a taste
one time, this guy told me he loved rhyme
in my mind, i’m thinking i could help him cross the line
said he never had the funds to pay for the booth
god knows back in high school it happened to me too
so i tried to lend a hand and maybe he could come through
but he never did
mans always had an excuse
now i tell you the truth, he doesn’t rap any more
said he doesn’t see the use man look what it’s come to
full of excuses
“the industry too hard, parents told me to quit, had to go get a job got baby mama and a kid”
but nonetheless it really breaks my heart
i thought they were fully committed
right from the start
[chorus]
i realized
this ain’t a road that was made for everyone
so say goodbye
cause’ you look around
and you can’t see anyone
that’s how it goes
not everybody can operate in this zone
that’s how it goes
not everybody can take the long way home
