[00:00.00] 作词 : Stanley Bryan Robinson/Tamara Wellons[00:01.00] 作曲 : Stanley Bryan Robinson/Tamara Wellons[00:05.64]We want change and we need it on the double. You know?[00:10.41]But Tamara Dobson said, “Progress has to be a slow thing for it to be definite.”[00:14.61]That’s real[00:17.31]So I hit up Tamara Wellons and we decided to take the long route home[00:21.90]Let’s go[00:22.62]We rarely choose the path where success is all but secure[00:25.59]We test our limits daily, ensuring we’re built for more[00:28.62]Stepping over bodies that’s washing up on the shore,[00:31.38]Ironically they wasn’t, self-doubters seldom endure[00:34.26]I’m no stranger to struggle I’ve become a connoisseur[00:37.02]No stand-in for experience, wisdom ain’t in brochures[00:39.93]But I find greatness synonymous with a journey that’s arduous[00:42.81]Surviving don’t always make you popular with the populace[00:46.14]Some would rather give posthumous recognition[00:48.51]Easier to miss than love you, cause love requires commitment[00:51.51]Back when I was a pauper but chose to offer enrichment[00:54.27]I named my nephew W3alth… long before we knew what rich meant[00:57.06]Not defined by my pigment but guided by my descendants[00:59.13]And in this hour of chaos, this moment’s barely a minute[01:00.36]Or millisecond but when you heard it the realness beckoned[01:01.71]They’re still born out of lies, we call that a misconception[01:03.42]We took the long route home[01:03.96]Going thru the unknown[01:04.38]Our yellow lights turned green[01:04.95]We hold on to our song[01:05.43]We took the long route home[01:06.03]Going thru the unknown[01:06.45]Our yellow lights turned green[01:07.02]We hold on to our song[01:07.56]We rarely choose a path where success is all but secure[01:08.76]We test our limits daily, ensuring we’re built for more[01:09.99]They stepped over my body while washing up on the shore,[01:11.04]Ironically I wasn’t, self-doubters seldom endure[01:12.24]I’m no stranger to struggle I’ve become a connoisseur[01:13.62]No stand-in for experience, wisdom ain’t in brochures[01:14.94]But I find greatness synonymous with a journey that’s arduous[01:16.59]Surviving don’t always make you popular with the populace[01:17.97]Some would rather give posthumous recognition[01:19.05]Easier to miss than love you, cause love requires commitment[01:20.25]Back when I was a pauper but chose to offer enrichment[01:21.45]I named my nephew W3alth… long before we knew what rich meant[01:22.56]Not defined by my pigment but a proud descendant of men and women[01:24.09]Who knows what winning in our country in this skin meant[01:25.17]An independent family man with a penchant[01:26.13]For finding love without limits beyond the hate and resentment[01:27.78]We took the long route home[01:28.26]Going thru the unknown[01:28.68]Our yellow lights turned green[01:29.25]We hold on to our song[01:29.73]We took the long route home[01:30.21]Going thru the unknown[01:30.63]Our yellow lights turned green[01:31.20]We hold on to our song[01:31.68]You know the pressure we under is unrelenting[01:34.44]And it seems the distance we traveled is never-ending[01:37.20]Questioned our decisions when life is testing our gumption[01:39.90]And learned that goals ain’t really last stops, they’re more like junctions[01:42.81]Paths that lead to businesses, others that lead to babies[01:45.60]Some that lead to a classroom and others lead to stages[01:48.33]Some that lead you to prison and others, an early grave[01:51.30]But I found heaven on earth while searching the path I paved[01:54.21]But Sun ain’t take to time to chill, this took time to build[01:57.24]Finding each other’s easy, the hard part’s to find the will[02:00.15]To keep the ship afloat when others give up hope[02:02.94]Wind in each other's sails or an anchor when we need it most[02:06.12]So before the curtain call or they pound the gavel[02:08.91]I answered when my purpose called, we got ground to travel[02:11.70]Locale don’t matter when the tank’s full as your heart is[02:14.31]Seen the world but home is still where my heart and the art is[02:17.31]We took the long route home[02:21.24]Going thru the unknown[02:22.80]Our yellow lights turned green[02:28.65]We hold on to our song[02:40.44]We took the long route home[02:43.44]Going thru the unknown[02:45.66]Our yellow lights turned green[02:48.48]We hold on to our song[02:51.48]We took the long route home[02:55.50]Going thru the unknown[02:57.09]Our yellow lights turned green[02:59.91]We hold on to our song[03:00.69]I took the long route, no doubt, and went all out[03:04.68]And went… and went and went all out[03:08.97]I took the long route, no doubt, and went all out[03:13.35]And went… and went and went all out[03:14.55]I took the long route, no doubt, and went all out[03:16.08]And went… and went and went all out[03:20.25]I took the long route, no doubt, and went all out[03:23.46]I took the long route, no doubt, and went all out
