Hakim - LONG DAY Lyrics

Yeah
Long Day
Long Long Day
But what's new
What's new with you
Huh

Yeah
Life is what you make it
Gotta take it in
Born inside this vessel
Gotta break it in
Ain't no need to settle
At this level
Seen it break some men
Absent for so long
I question motives when you make amends

Yeah
Milk the game like it got sets of twins
Losses on occasions
But trajection always set to win
We Know I'm always up
But play the game like I been down by 10
Try to keep the purest soul
Forgive me when I'm down to sin

Yeah
Maturation on this end
Took some takes
I rattled snakes
Now in my frames is like 2 friends
Never waited cause i'm working
My perspective through the lens
Had to zoom out on the picture
Resolution on a 10
Click

Snap your photo's now
Enjoy me in the present
Tread with caution
Diss at you discretion
Since a adolescence
Caught myearly lesson
Knew my role and played my roll
So many laps around these niggas
Catch a damn cankle foreal

Yeah
I be quick to check they temperature
Lexus I got his & hers
Secure the bag from written words
Ain't never sad
It could be worse
Another day above the earth
I made the wave they about surf

Lessons back to back and they won't stop until a nigga learn
Trying to get reactions you reflecting how you hide that hurt
Man that shit so pitiful
Fake love to the ridicule
Man what's gotten in you
Money isn't everything
It's deeper than physical

This for them days where it just feel like I was left for dead
Had to pick me up and tell myself it's all inside my head
Hands out
Fresh out of bed
Praise Allah cause I could be dead
Break the law
Had to risk it all
If I missed you call
You know what that meant

Chances are
If I cut you off
Then your chances gone
Ain't no caving in
They came and went
You know you are insecure so why ain't you just say that then
Try to put me in a spot to lose will never make you win
Trying to light my fuse
I know you curious to see the end

Poker face
They lighting duds
I gotta play it slick
Getting thicker skin
Ain't ever bothered by a leach or tick
Always stay prepared but I'm aware the game is hit or miss
You kill one of my dogs I flip the script
I go Johnny Wick

Yeah
And I go Johnny Wick
Learned the Algorhythm cause nobody never gave me shit
Know it's just the intro
Last time I was obsessed with it
Finally caught my tempo
Niggas know the flow magnificent

I tried to tell them so many times
Stress f*cking with the family
Ain't sleep on them nights
I lost that money on investments
Shit done ate my mind
I kept it bottled up
Now look a nigga aging like wine

Yeah
Aging like wine
Yeah
You know Fine Wine
The Magnificent Obsession
It's clearly ya'll can see that I'm obsessed with it

Yeah
Don't get me wrong
I had my doubts along this bumpy road
Darkest days
Convincing my ownself
And said I'm going to blow
Funny life will mold you to ensure that you don't fit the mold
Funny life will mold you to ensure that you don't fit the mold

Say it twice
Roll the dice
Pay the price
This right here going show you the real difference between men and mice
Out in Thomasville so many nights I did the minute rice
I talk the biggest shit we came from living life on minimize my nigga

I been around a killer so I seen how quick this life can change
15 min calls I'm just making sure a nigga sane
Daughter getting older
I ain't trying to feel his type of pain
Know if I don't do this for myself
This for my nigga Bang

Know if I don't ever get my shine
I'll do it in the rain
Know I'm always first
Because my finish line inside my lane
I done been in debt for all those times
I charged it to the game
Comfy with myself
Ain't clout chase so I could have some fame

Sat back and watched them goofy's do it
Y'all should be ashamed
Always said the music got to do it
And I made a name
Made it out Nebraska I'm a legend
F*ck what critics say
F*ck I'm doing rapping for 3 mins on a single take

On a single take
Yeah
Single take
Made it out Nebraska I'm a legend
F*ck what critics say
Yeah
Told you it's been a Long Day
Got a little bit more left to get off

Yeah
Forget it was the intro
Instrumental need a f*cking break
Check out my credentials
You can't forge that shit onto a page
Walking down on niggas
That man fresh up out of crystal lake
This ain't accidental
This ain't luck
This right here is fate

And that's on my soul
Don't hit my phone if you can't pay the rate
Man I'm in my zone
A 1 V 5 is what it's going to take
Yeah
I think it's finally time to smell roses
Fruit that grew from labor
Cause I reaped the words that I was sewing

Irony I started with the press and did the HTV
Double down
Invested spent a car and got this new machine
Crazy how I stitched my life together off a little dream
Ain't no fabrication everything is how it really seems
Yeah
How it really seems
Irony I started with the press and did the HTV
Crazy how I stitched my life together off a little dream
