Been a long time pt. 2


It's been a long time
Have you been running, running from me?
You spend the whole night
Avoiding the same conversation we had last time
Look where you've ended up
Right on the edge, and you're waiting to jump

Yeah, I started off as a rappin' nigga
It's been a while since I slapped a nigga
Fuck X, he's irrelevant
I walk up in the room, they still can't ignore the elephant
I conversate with a candidate
Energy feels great, body shaped like a figure eight
I'm real rough around the edges
She tried to seal the deal, but I was holdin' all the leverage
Who the hell you textin' now? Who the fuck you talkin' to?
Baby, when you comin' home? Shit I'll never say to you
Yeah, it's not like I don't care about you
But my life will be the same without you (Bang)

I live with no apologies (No, no)
Sorry, I ran out of fucks to give (No)
You might come up, but not on me (Not sorry)
Not sorry, this ain't where your love came in (Get the fuck down)
If it's all fake anyways
What's the point of keeping up the fakes?
Wouldn't it be easier to end it all? (No, no way)
Look where you've ended up
Right on the edge, and you're waiting to jump

Yeah, I'm not the one to buy expensive clothing
It's not an indication what a nigga actually holdin' (No)
Don't be fooled by them jokers in they rented automotives
Funny lookin' in them chokers (Haha)
I don't be fallin' for agendas
I create a bag of money and divide it with my niggas
Yeah, I show you how to run a business
'Cause I suck at playin' sports, and my rap career is finished
Yeah, they say I look like Compton Menace
But I take that as a compliment, I hot-boxed the oxygen
Aw shit, Xzibit thinkin' out the box again
Bigger dreams, bigger goals, and thicker skin
I learned how to turn the negative to positive
And turn the positive into accomplishment
Xzibit, yeah
It's not like I don't care about you
But my life will be the same without you (Same)

It's been a long time
Have you been running, running from me?
You spend the whole night
Avoiding the same conversation we had last time
Look where you've ended up
Right on the edge, and you're waiting to jump

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
