Jermaine Dupri Been Away Lyrics

Been Away Lyrics

Q "The Kid" ft. Jermaine Dupri 
"Been
Away"

JD
its been a long time comin, im here now
nobody can
stop that

verse 1 (JD)
i done traveled long distances
im the
meaning of what persistence is
and music is the only thing ive really loved
since i was a kid
and its the only thing im gonna love forever
ive been
through the hard times and bad weathers
long days and long nights, tryin to
get my career together
but school was my first goal, bump these brauds
i
was blessed with a talent that could get me real far in time
and trust me im
nice with mine
and im sick with an instrument listen to the drumline
and
all i got is more fire to come 
a lotta cats is nice, but im liver than
them
and these ATL streets, is what im tryin to rise up from
by any means
just to get that cream
it was hard but i did it graduated to the big
screen
now im on tour and the kid got bigger dreams

chorus
you
cant help me ive been away to long
im just tryin to chase my dreams
did i
leave your mind when i was gone
i hope not, cuz im still here
you cant
help me ive been away to long
im just tryin to chase my dreams
did i
leave your mind when i was gone
i hope not

verse 2 (Q "the
Kid")
now im in a new state new division
new sound new shit im on a
new mission a good life livin
things done changed, new deal new aim
2 new
four fifths, benz and a range
ive came a long way from sittin on a
block
from bustin shots in broad days to number one slots
but look ima
grind through it
and i can make anything happen as long as i put my mind to
it
i love music kid im real nice with them sticks
no class no tutors i
was born with this gift
and its only a few, one or two i can name
and cuz
im hot, dudes wanna X me out the game
but ima keep strivin
and hustle all
the way from the bottom to the top and surprise em
and show niggaz it dont
hurt to try
stay focused and you bound to get by
SING WIT ME
YA'LL!

Chorus 

Verse 3 (Q "the Kid" and JD)
ive came
a long way and look i done made it
and nothin you do or say can stop me cuz
this is what im here for
and hot beats is all i got an ear for you could
never nop me 
what im sheddin tears for
look, it was rough but i made it
at last

along with
