Lyrics The Long Run - K Rino

The Long Run

Some of y’all boys got expiration dates
Starting to smell a little bit
G’s like us, we in it for the long run
Last forever, watch
Now what happens in the hood, stays in the hood
Unless a few snitches make they way through the hood
It’s G code homie all day in the hood
Never ever ever spoken but it’s always understood
We like it laid back, old school in the deck
Cats ride around still blastin' cassettes
Better watch your back partner when you cashing your checks
When you see them goons coming boy your ass better check
Packing automatic weapons that will make your head spin
They got love for me from the North to the dead end
All the women be complaining there’s too many scared men
My hand itching bad time to put some bread in
Better miss me with that game because I ain’t a
Hustle through the day just to make it go quicker
I’m the solo mic ripper, I ain’t sipping on liquor
I’m the one who flows sicker,
Cause we in it for the long run, for the long run
We chasing after paper 'till we can’t see the sun
Keep your eyes open in my neighborhood
I’m knocking the game down you can have it when I’m done
Cause we in it for the long run, for the long run
We chasing after paper 'till we can’t see the sun
Keep your eyes open in my neighborhood
I’m knocking the game down you can have it when I’m done
Worldwide respected for my ghetto work ethic
Barely get to sleep because my schedule’s too hectic
The laws do us bad when we out in those streets
I guess that’s why police rhymes with no peace
I move quickly can’t let these get me
But I still take my time like I brought my watch with me
I spit it for the hood I ain’t like them pop sissies
You’s a damn liar if you say I ain’t in the top fifty
People still talking and denouncing where I’m from
Tell me why my name keep bouncing off your tongue
Cause you know that you ain’t ever brought an ounce of what I’ve brung
Just three or four more months of counseling and I’m done
I know the game good, I don’t need to try to coach me
As long as you showing love it’s cool to approach me
Make your money work for you, study game closely
Seventy-five will get you one fifty worth of groceries
Cause we in it for the long run, for the long run
We chasing after paper 'till we can’t see the sun
Keep your eyes open in my neighborhood
I’m knocking the game down you can have it when I’m done
Cause we in it for the long run, for the long run
We chasing after paper 'till we can’t see the sun
Keep your eyes open in my neighborhood
I’m knocking the game down you can have it when I’m done
I’m tired of being broke, I need green like that gecko
Pockets so empty, if I scream it’ll echo
Talking about swag but you living with your mama
We don’t tolerate dudes walking around in pajamas
Gs bar none, I’m delivering your issue
I came by myself, you had your whole clique with you
Ran through them boys like some wet toilet tissue
Then ran them off the corner like a one man militia
We building up stacks and them cats can’t match it
We picking up speed and them rats can’t catch it
Babies in the store all dirty in the basket
It ought to be against the law to be so damn ratchet
Huh, and I ain’t tripping on swangers
I’m tripping on the judge downtown trying to hang us
I meant it when I first said, I ain’t ever stranded
Got a place to lay my head in every city on the planet
Cause we in it for the long run, for the long run
We chasing after paper 'till we can’t see the sun
Keep your eyes open in my neighborhood
I’m knocking the game down you can have it when I’m done
Cause we in it for the long run, for the long run
We chasing after paper 'till we can’t see the sun
Keep your eyes open in my neighborhood
I’m knocking the game down you can have it when I’m done
