[Chorus]

Yeah you came a long way, Yeah you made it out the gulag

You spent so many days gone, it had me too sad

And I wondered if you was ever coming home

Yeah you scared me, had me chilling to the bone

But you came a long way, Yeah you made it out gulag

So many days we 'finna dance, we 'finna do laps

And I'm here if you can't get it on your own

[Bridge]

Yeah, Gulag

I felt doomed too, man

I got wounds too, yeah

I got bruised too, bad

Yeah, Gulag

I got news too, yeah

See you soon, soon, yeah

Free from stress, too glad

[Verse]

Cause back then don't wanna talk about the way we livеd

Felt like evеryday a nightmare with the way its been

Really don't think you gon' make it when the paychecks thin

Got a lot of obligations, Got to pay your rent

So ignore the hate

These kids ain't been where we been

No financial net, your parents ain't gon' save your sins

And there ain't that much to blame, even though it's partly them

Cause back then when we was slaves, ancestors received nothin'

So it's the same situation with discrimination

Money makes more money, that's the reason you ain't wealthy

Broke gon' pass down broke but that don't mean you can't bail free

Keep searching for answers because quitting ain't gon' help you

You did what you did

They make money off your pain, don't be mistaken

I want you to know that I'm here for motivation

I been fighting for you, was in the same situation

[Chorus]

Yeah you came a long way, Yeah you made it out the gulag

You spent so many days gone, it had me too sad

And I wondered if you was ever coming home

Yeah you scared me, had me chilling to the bone

But you came a long way, Yeah you made it out gulag

So many days we 'finna dance, we 'finna do laps

And I'm here if you can't get it on your own
