๐ Lyrics
Ooh, ah-ah, yeah
It's a long way home at the end of the road
I'll be pavin' my own way to the top, I'll be here to stay
So take my name, remember this face
Keep the change and have a nice day
And live for the moment, not by the past
Homie live each day like it's your last
All my life, I couldn't fit in like a bad shoe
I was always too square, too cube
Too tall, too weird, too blue
Forget them high school hotties, now I'm too cool
I guess I came a long way from that young kid
The school's most popular lame, no friends
No style, no clothes, no ends
Just a bed, fell asleep and never woke up again
Yeah, and my last prayer was don't ever let me end up like the people that's down here
'Cause the one that fear change be the ones that don't care
Look at themselves and see somebody else in the mirror
But you could always pick me out of the crowd
Loud mouth with my very own style
And what I know now is don't ever pretend
And live every single day like you won't see it again
So take my name, remember this face
Keep the change and have a nice day
And live for the moment not by the past
Homie, live each day like it's your last
And if you only had 24 hours and 1400 minutes before your dream's gone
Then you better go live it
'Cause whatever you love could be taken away
So live like it's your dying day
I dedicate this to my teachers that never believed in me
And the mother that conceived, but ended up leaving me
I just wish y'all could see me smile
This big grin's on the TV now
Uh, and I took it from the bottom to the top
From the holes in my socks, Ramen noodles in the pot
Used to rob 'em on the block, now they spot me in the drop
Middle finger up and that ain't gon' stop
I used to take orders and now I make bets
I used to scrub floors and now I sign checks
I used to push carts, now I push songs
Yeah, I used to be there, now I am so gone
I fired myself, found a job myself
Established my name then I signed myself
And what I tell myself, is you did this by yourself
And when I'm on so long, I'll be by myself, I'm gone
So take my name, remember this face
Keep the change and have a nice day
And live for the moment not by the past
Homie, live each day like it's your last
And if you only had 24 hours and 1400 minutes before your dream's gone
Then you better go live it
'Cause whatever you love could be taken away
So live like it's your dying day
I wish I could see their faces when they heard your boy spit
Wish I could know what they're thinking when they heard my first hit
'Cause I remember them wishing that I wouldn't get big
Now I bet they're wishing they wouldn't of said that shit
I came out of a dying city brought back life
Everything they said I couldn't do I did about twice
Multiplied by the bottles that we popped each night
That equals out to a celebration, bitches more ice
Make a toast to the underdogs, toast to the team (hey)
Toast to the fact we this close to the dream
Pour one for my exes, used to talk reckless
But now I push Benzes and rock Rolexes
Came from the city and until they come and get me
Turn around and see the whole East side's still with me (what up?)
And that's how we live it, (yeah) your mans don't change
Look, it's still the kid, still can't tell me a goddamn thing, Kells!
So take my name, remember this face
Keep the change and have a nice day
And live for the moment not by the past
Homie, live each day like it's your last
And if you only had 24 hours and 1400 minutes before your dream's gone
Then you better go live it
'Cause whatever you love could be taken away
So live like it's your dying day (like it's your dying day)
It's a long way home at the end of the road
I'll be pavin' my own way to the top, I'll be here to stay

And live for the moment not by the past
Homie, live each day like it's your last
It's a long way home at the end of the road
I'll be pavin' my own way to the top, I'll be here to stay
