Verse 1   It's been a long time comin since 1995 and a year after that, that's when 2pac died. I don't think you know what I've been through. Growin up i always had a lame ass crew. And sometimes it feels like I jumped off a buliding and flew.    Just about 2 weeks ago I almost got sued for stealing my niggas bike uhh no I'm not gonna say sike. And i know change gon come,someday. After I die all ya'll nigga gon be cryin and I'mma be flying watching all my niggas sighin. I'm just gonna be timin how long its gonna be till im done climbin up. And askin god why was I always lyin. And he said cause you did it my way and went the highway. And i said ohh i thought it was the skyway cause i always wanted to fly away. And i still can't wait till that day, to say i made it here can't ya hear. I hear fear in your voice don't worry The second verse is gonna be far better. Better get the fuckin bretta. Can ya? Send ya angels. You know what I'll just change my angle. Ohh and do you really want to see this body dangle?      (chorus)   It's Been a long time comin but I know change gon come.   It's been a long time comin but I know change gon come.      Verse 2   I came for the sake of hip-hop. Cause now a days it's just fake stuff. So ever seen your dad get cuffed I have. And now that think about it I wish he got hit wit that cop's pistol. One time i witnessed my uncle hit my aunt with a cyrstal and they're brotha and sista how fucked is that?! I wished i could've kissed her forhead and say everything gonna be okay.And what my cousin said was right most of my dad's family are some punk ass bitches. And where I grew up snitches get stitches   I hope change gon come quick cause if not I think kanyes gonna quit. And I'm not part of this shit yet but I'm sick and all ya'll other cows can suck a dick . I'm gettin a kick out of this. Don't close the curtain on me cause I'm not famous cause hip-hop needs me.   (chorus)
