Chorus:
We got a long way to go
And there's no going back to the life we live
The life we use to know
We got a long way to go
I've given everything there's nothing left
There's nothing left to lose
Hand me the lighter, help ease the pain
Bring on the fire, watch me go insane
Light up my past, watch it burn in flames
There's nothing left
There's nothing left to lose
Verse 1:
Nothing left now hear my sound
You never heard this and you like my style
These dudes hate but I'll crack one smile
With a mosses flow that'll part the Nile
Like the Red Sea, I done k**ed this in a heartbeat
I am like McCartney, mixed with some Marley
Mixed with that Shady, Shakur and some Arcade
Fire, Kanye through the wire
Now I'm Dante, oh sh** I've been inspired
That attire don't pop like that shot don't fire
So don't jack this sh** like you popped a tire
Cuz I'm getting laid off like I just got fired
And she gave me that fire knowledge with brain
I fell asleep and I wasn't shamed
I'm on my way but I'll be there late
Light up the street watch it burn flame like that!
Chorus:
We got a long way to go
And there's no going back to the life we live
The life we use to know
We got a long way to go
I've given everything there's nothing left
There's nothing left to lose
Hand me the lighter, help ease the pain
Bring on the fire, watch me go insane
Light up my past, watch it burn in flames
There's Nothing left
There's nothing left to lose
Verse 2:
You ever been told one day were great?
When everybody say they get it? but they cannot relate
You sit and talk about your therapist but its all hate
You got a distorted mind cuz your thoughts ain't straight?
And I'm tired waiting your table I'm tired filling your drinks
If people said you were great than tell me what would you think?
Tell me what would you think? Put hashtags to work
They're k**ing people in schools, they're shooting people in church
And while they're shooting a movie their also shooting in movies
And I hit my girl cuz she didn't feel like doing me
It's misogynistic but we want suspense
Cuz why we calling women dimes when it don't make cents?
How we call a woman b**h but we love our mom?
And how we stopping ISIS when that I is gone
How you plan to recruit if we keep getting bombed?
How the future in my hand if my presence gone?
And while the teacher looking at me like I'm not that good
They just k**ed my little brother cuz he had on a hood
If you call it inferno, then you're not too off...
I just lost my job man f** my boss
We got a long way from equality
We got a long way to go
There's no going back
Said I'm not going back
Chorus
We got a long way to go
And there's no going back to the life we live
The life we use to know
We got a long way to go
I've given everything there's nothing left
There's nothing left to lose
Hand me the lighter, help ease the pain
Bring on the fire, watch me go insane
Light up my past, watch it burn in flames
There's Nothing left
There's nothing left to lose
