Antwon King - Come Too Far lyrics

rate me

Doing with the mic any given night

Performing in the alleys while the homies shooting dice

There’s dues to be paid, best believe I know the price

Have the shows with a few friends there and my wife

And I know it wouldn’t be easy

Scandalous promoters always try to do you greezy

Seem like everybody and their momma rap

No love for it, they do it just to make a stack

Beneath the wind there was no dollars involved

When I was in high school I would perform in the halls

If I needed the pizza, one more paint on the walls

They be working on my crevasse, how I came to appall

With no gimmicks, I talked it, I sure lift it

We used to see north, now truly it’s no limits

Of what we can achieve, you ain’t gotta believe

So even when I’m feeling weak, man, I gotta proceed

I’ve come too far just to turn around

Yeah, shall I proceed? I know what you want

And I’mma put you what you need

I’ve come too far and you can’t stop me now

And shall I proceed? I know what you want

And I’mma put you what you need

I gotta stay deadly focused like an athlete

In my own lane like I’m running in the track

Not a perpetrator, fronting, try to act street

When they stay far from the hood like a backseat

Truly I’m just a child of God

That really ain’t tripping about the amounts and odds

Placed up against me, man, I’m on my job

With catchy lines and hooks without throwing a rhyme

Lost some friends but that ain’t slowing my step

Like Laker fans felt when the right left

Yeah, one of the best kept secrets

And it’s all coming out my soul, can’t teach this

I pray to God he help me with every weakness

Last name King, got to rap instead of speeches

I have a dream, that this little young queens

Will grow up to be more than just part of the twerk team

I’ve come too far just to turn around

Yeah, shall I proceed? I know what you want

And I’mma put you what you need

I’ve come too far and you can’t stop me now

And shall I proceed? I know what you want

And I’mma put you what you need

Rolling down the streets of my old neighborhood

Speaking to my peeps, making sure the neighbors good

Some misunderstood, think I’m only trying to show off

As if I ain’t make it just they thinking that I’m so soft

They got me twisted, I’m not living up in a new loft

Come to bring you the news like another time pro

Far from perfect, so far from purples

Issues, I don’t address them, my lessons saying in person

‘Cause I don’t hear what he say, she say

Each day is vital, you don’t get to do a replay

So approach it like Rocky in the sand, got the eye of the tiger, I’mma fight it till the end

I am the one to fight in my own conscience

These negative thoughts that be all up in my mind

Say it again

I said I am the one to fight in my own conscience

These negative thoughts that be all up in my mind

I’ve come too far just to turn around

Yeah, shall I proceed? I know what you want

And I’mma put you what you need

I’ve come too far and you can’t stop me now

And shall I proceed? I know what you want

And I’mma put you what you need
