Not Long

[Hook: Usher] If you look to the stars You'll find that you're not far from them And if you follow your heart You'll find that you'll be one of them [Post-Hook: Usher] And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long [Verse 1: Ludacris] Long days, half sober nights Unsigned performing at every open mic God is all I needed to believe in me Haters, I tuned them out, they were on another frequency My momma never winded my decision And all the bright lights never blinded out my vision Music was my passion and my first crush I'm just tryna ride the waves, baby, surf's up When I'm down, music gets me worked up Plus in all my shows, it gets women to pull they skirts up What can I say, I'm turnt up I'm on fire, these other rappers is burnt up [Hook: Usher] If you look to the stars You'll find that you're not far from them And if you follow your heart You'll find that you'll be one of them [Post-Hook: Usher] And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long [Verse 2: Ludacris] Yeah, what an imagination I'm a dreamer losing my concentration Head in the clouds to trace my observations Just connect the dots to all of the constellations Looking for signs that's astrological And I don't dream big, my dreams are astronomical So when critics write articles of my chronicles I wonder if my hunger is felt in they abdominals Hiding from life's daily distractions Where thoughts become things from the power of attraction And I'm attracted to money and beautiful women Ha and toasting to new beginnings, yeah [Hook: Usher] If you look to the stars You'll find that you're not far from them And if you follow your heart You'll find that you'll be one of them [Post-Hook: Usher] And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long [Verse 3: Ludacris] Look, it's not long 'til the fight's over The turbulence is non stop 'til the flight's over So when passengers panic, just stay silent And realize it's never too late to become the pilot I fly higher, take control of my destiny The first step I needed me to invest in me Its still an every day struggle for wealth I'd rather struggle to working for me Than working for someone else And I'm steady tryna ease the stress So I open up all the doors with the key to success If it hasn't been done, then I'ma do it first 'Cause I'm the master of the Ludaverse [Hook: Usher] If you look to the stars You'll find that you're not far from them And if you follow your heart You'll find that you'll be one of them [Post-Hook: Usher] And not long And not long And not long And not long And not long
