[Chorus: Skrizzly Adams]

I came a long way from where I've been

Got a heavy load, they say I've been carryin'

And I know I'll have to answer for all my sins

So I better cash out right now, before the walls close in

[Verse 1: Chris Webby]

Yea I stole the game

Get away car on the open range

Grind it out sleet, snow or rain

Took ahold of pain, no novacaine

I'll show 'em plain, it's simpler

Broke it down with the written word

On how to strike when the iron's hot

And climb on top, then fire shots

When you get the urge

I flip a bird to the system

That fugitive

Fuck the world with no lubricant

Keep hatin' that's fuelin' this

Engine inside, with this pen of mine

To get these rhymes

Then in time, it got lucrative

Stuck 'em up and I doubled up

I'm one of one, with no duplicate

If that shoe will fit, then I'll throw 'em on

Run a motherfucking marathon

Get the torch then I carry on

'Til it burns out, and it turns out

That it's still lit

Never goin' off

Here to make a scene till I'm hauled off

Burn bright 'til ain't nothin' left

But don't fall off

So tell 'em

[Chorus: Skrizzly Adams]

I came a long way from where I've been

Got a heavy load, they say I've been carryin'

And I know I'll have to answer for all my sins

So I better cash out right now, before the walls close in

Before the walls close in

Before the walls close in

[Verse 2: Chris Webby]

I've had people that misleaded me

And treated me like I'm nothin'

Turn they back or they bet against me

It seem to me that they bluffin'

I kept winnin' and kept winnin'

And kept pushin' they buttons

I hit 'em over the head with it

Better check for concussions

I been crushin', I been rappin

Enjoy it now cause ain't shit lastin'

Chip cashin', before I'm out

Then get the whiskey and pour a round

Outlaw to my downfall

Left lane and I'm speed racin'

With a dream that I've been chasin', I keep chasin'

My seat facin' that limelight

Strike gold when that time right

Then bow out when that time's done

With my money and my mind right

Ain't it funny how the hindsight's always perfect

And the wounds heal on the surface

And the scar tissue inside you will define you

But it's worth it

Find your purpose, find what you love doing

Find obstacles and then run through them

Make somethin' stick, and then un-glue 'em

Then re-glue 'em, just keep moving

And see, through all of your enemies

And feed the fire with intensity

Just look at me, independently

I pulled off the heist off the century

[Chorus: Skrizzly Adams]

I came a long way from where I've been

Got a heavy load, they say I've been 'carryin

And I know I'll have to answer for all my sins

So I better cash out right now, before the walls close in

Before the walls close in

Before the walls close in
