lyrics

[Verse 1: Ubiq]

Long way from home, long way to go,
But I had to follow my dream so I had to take that road.
If I had to go back and do it again… Damn right I’d do it.
Giving up instead of fighting ‘til the end… Man, that’d be foolish.
No excuses, hard work is what I came for,
You get out what you put in and you always get what you paid for.
So it’s head down, eyes up,
We just want to be the best, don’t mind us,
When the chips are down we rise up,
‘Cause the way that we’re living is what defines us, so…

I can’t turn back I’ve waited all my life.
Packed my bags and left it all behind.
Take my chances on this one-way road.
Just do one thing and then I’ll run straight home.

[Chorus 1: Chedda Cheese]

Life ain’t really looking like it used to.
But I know that I’m a long, long way from home.
I don’t even know how far I’ve gone.
I’ll be moving on.
Can’t get it off of my mind,
Walk that line just to see what I find,
Dreaming with nowhere to go but I feel fine.
Long, long way from home.

[Verse 2: Merkules]

It’s been a long time coming, I spent all night running,
But I never really get to where I wanted to be so I just breathe slow,
Going beast-mode ‘cause they keep on pushing all my buttons like a cheat-code.
And they won’t see the day where they can get the best of me,
Eventually the rest will see my recipe is chemistry.
I don’t care about a critic or a deal,
I’m a killer in the field and I’m giving them the chills.
Only spit it if I live it and it’s real,
I appeal to the masses, you bastards are getting in my grill.
So I’ma do it ‘til you see me down on Melrose,
Bad bitch with me with some gold in my ear-lobes.
Mad ‘cause I keep it one-hundred and they’re zeroes,
I don’t give a fuck, I keep it moving, I’m a hero.
Still slow when I’m on my grind, and you might find I’m on my climb.
I kill it every single time I write these lines, what’s on your mind?
Keep it calm for a minute, yeah I’m raw with the lyrics, I’m the next generation.
Do it for my dogs, yeah we did it, now we’re all going to get it,
Not a fraud or a gimmick that I’m chasing.


[Chorus 2: Chedda Cheese]

Life ain’t really looking like it used to.
But I know that I’m a long, long way from home.
I don’t even know how far I’ve gone.
Keep it moving forward ‘til I know I’ve made it.
Can’t get it off of my mind,
Walk that line just to see what I find,
Dreaming with nowhere to go but I feel fine.

[Verse 3: Ubiq]

Put a mountain in my way, I’m gon’ climb it.
Lost it all and I need to find it.
If you want something don’t try to fight it,
You never know if you never try it.
What’s the choice to run if you don’t exercise it?
I ain’t coming back ‘til I’m on the map,
‘Til I’ve got it made, and I promise that.
And once I make a promise I’ma honor that.
No matter the weight that I’ve got on my back.
One life, one death.
One right leg, one left.
Two eyes, face forward from sunrise to sunset.

[Chorus 3: Chedda Cheese]

Life ain’t really looking like it used to.
But I know that I’m a long, long way from home.
I don’t even know how far I’ve gone.
I’ll be moving on.
Can’t get it off of my mind,
Walk that line just to see what I find,
Dreaming with nowhere to go but I feel fine.
Long, long way from home.
