Lyrics

Long Run

[Intro]

I'm ready

Boldface James

ConCreatures

Inglés

Tell these niggas watch they mouth if they want they teeth, you hear me?

ConCreatures, drug zone, 227

Niggas know what it is with me (Yeah)

[Verse 1]

Boldy Blocks, Bend Street, king of the skelly

In the jelly, whipping s'ghetti, gettin' so much fetti

Call me Soda Popinski or 'Chine Gun Kelly

From Kelly to telly in my soda club pelle

On the block, ten deep, three-five-seven

One dessi, two 'chetes, and my throwaway peggy

If the police tryna flick me, I'm fleeing when they catch me

They gon' hit me with a netty so you know it ain't petty

You know it ain't reggie, you knew you wasn't ready

If you hit me, better catch me, you know I ain't friendly (At all)

Like Casper, you know I ain't friendly

And friendly got a stash, now I'm ghost with my friend Lee

In the Jag' blowin' smoke with a ten-piece

Graduated from semi-pro to the big leagues

Had to let 'em know what the 6 mean

That's where I'm at, here I go, come and get me

[Chorus]

In no time

It's been a long time coming for a long time

It's been a long time running from a long time

Kept the phone lines jumping like a telethon

In the blow spot putting out that topside

Spent my whole life thuggin' in the sunshine

With my four-five ducking from the one time

It's been a long time running from a long time

It's been a long time coming, had a long run

[Verse 2]

Fell asleep with my finger on the trigger

That's a real street dream, why you sleepin' on a nigga?

Never me slipping, reaching for the blick again

Peeled, sweet dreams, you sleeping with the fishes

In the creek, send a finger to your missus

In the mail, can't let them get the drop on me (Uh-uh)

Call me what you want, just don't call the cops on me (Uh-uh)

Or call me collect at the spot, homie

(Hello? Who is this? Where the fuck is Boldy?)

(Dawg working with the feds, tryna put 'em on me)

Got popped with a brick and some marked money

Got off with intent, did a one-to-twenty

For snitching on my cuddy, nigga had it coming to him

I fell off, but bounced back like Silly Putty (Big dummy)

I risked fed time for this money

It's ConCreatures, Hellblock, hully-gully

[Chorus]

In no time

It's been a long time coming for a long time

It's been a long time running from a long time

Kept the phone lines jumping like a telethon

In the blow spot putting out that topside

Spent my whole life thuggin' in the sunshine

With my four-five ducking from the one time

It's been a long time running from a long time

It's been a long time coming, had a long run

[Verse 3]

When my back is against the wall, what happens if it should fall?

I live for today, but pray for a better tomorrow

Crack is against the law, what happens if you get caught

For selling that yay? And they send you behind the wall?

Why would you risk it all? Moochie, I've been through it all

Might as well give it all to me, I can move it all

Magical with the wand, don't panic when it dissolve

That's just its purest form, no additives but the Arm and Hammer

When whippin' hard, the hammer is a revolver

Jammin' like that's my song they playin' in rental cars

Traffic and bricks of raw, bird play, chicken talk

I know Sergei and I ain't talking Fedorov

Niggas with jealous hearts turn state, tip you off

Don't even know what a chirp weigh, or what it costs

After I get it off, first base, second, walk

Stole third base, heading home, finna score a homerun

[Chorus]

In no time

It's been a long time coming for a long time

It's been a long time running from a long time

Kept the phone lines jumping like a telethon

In the blow spot putting out that topside

Spent my whole life thuggin' in the sunshine

With my four-five ducking from the one time

It's been a long time running from a long time

It's been a long time coming, had a long run
