Long Way

[Chorus: Elcamino]

We used to feel like we ain't have no hope (Ain't have no hope)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

We about to do it like never before (Never before)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

Back in the day (Hah) would have sold you a O (Sold you a O, you gotta remind niggas)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

(I do this shit without a pen too)

Where this rap shit will take you, you never know

(I came a long way, long, long way)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope

[Verse 1: Benny the Butcher]

I lost a couple niggas, I swear this one for the set

I made a couple dollars never switched up on my bet

Let's talk about a brick, I really flipped one on my steps

Crackers hung us with ropes, that's why this thick one on my neck

My hoes be in Gucci fashion, I like my hoes boujee ratchet

With me, while my UZI packing but she be in movies acting

Find out where shooters at, I pull up on you, Google map you

I'm the one truly snapping, it's my job to school these rappers

No 401K, I was sticking twenty bricks like fuck it, I will run for president by 2026

I got friends labelled millionaires who never sleep

And only eat at the spots that got the name of the restaurants on the silverware

These niggas can't spit like me, I been through it, they skim through it

Hear music and start to get influenced

These niggas just got on my wave but I been moving

The Butcher is as good as anybody you name that's been proven (Huh)

Them jail photos took me back

My homie used to cook me crack, now my wrist is as good as his

Please don't over look these facts

My bitch sent a text, she said, "I can't believe how good we match" (Haha)

Be rich if I had a dime for everytime she took me back

I understood her struggle so the struggle understood me back

Hoes have to hustle then gonna love us after we cook this batch

Shout out to my CT niggas, them boys ride with us (Yeah)

Down to the Detroit pioneers ? to Des Moines, Iowa (Hah)

Give me chills counting wrinkled bills, my girl iron them

I bring them gift wrapped to your door if your boys buying them

The Butcher, nigga

[Chorus: Elcamino]

We used to feel like we ain't have no hope (Ain't have no hope)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

We about to do it like never before

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

Back in the day would have sold you a O (Sold you a O)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

Where this rap shit will take you, you never know

(I don't know where I am going)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope

[Verse 2: Benny the Butcher]

Yeah, I'm real plus I'm rare, shit so sick in my city

Niggas still broke at forty, hoes independent at twenty

I caught it, I never fought the process, explored my options

Moving like I knew the law was watching

You mention God in one of your songs, they try to call you conscious

Until they end behind bars, they avoid the logic

I am whipping quarters out the water, had to call it Rodman

Like the Houston charter, we bought all the rockets

To make out like I did you gotta call the locksmith

I woke a fiend, told him beat it when I caught him knotting

I am back again causing problems

I guess the pressure was necessary, we flex at what's next

Told you next up the haters going to say "God bless you"

Friends turn into foes, these hoes starting acting extra

Money going to say collect us and family going to say you left 'em

Let's go

[Chorus: Elcamino]

We used to feel like we ain't have no hope (Ain't have no hope)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

We about to do it like never before (Never before)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

Back in the day would have sold you a O (Sold you a O)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope (Came a long way)

Where this rap shit will take you, you never know (Never know)

I swear I came a long way from selling dope
