Long Way Home Lyrics - Daley

Rolling through London, I've been cruising a while 

I see a man in a feud with his girl 

Yeah about losing his child 

She was crying him a river I guess she's in denial 

And the car ain't tinted, and this aint none of our business 

So we aint trying to stare too long 

Me and the driver look like there aint one of us listening 

And not one of us listening, 

Probably both had a row with our sisterin, 

While the whole street witnessed 

Just gotta turn a blind eye, no winking 

We still rolling, we shoulda took the other way 

I'm still moaning 

I shoulda kept that to myself, still told him 

So now he's going all the way, real sulkish 

Clubs are closed, I'm gettin mad 

Like would you take a look at these lads 

Trying to stop a cab like they can't see man 

Alcohol got em feeling like they can't be slapped 

And one of them's vomitting kebab 

And the other one's hoppin on his back 

And his girl tryin to pick him up 

That's the one time that she's gotta be the man 

[Chorus - Daley] 

Taking the long way home again 

Watching the world drag, in the rain 

There's motion but there's no change 

It's the same old, same old 

Race till it's over yeah 

[Wretch 32] 

Rolling through London, where we slipped on a junction 

I don't wanna see any more drunkards 

And I'm talking to myself cause 

I wanna conversation with a little more substance 

And it's alright, it's in the brain 

And what a surprise it's gonna rain 

And we still speed past the homeless 

And still act like we ain't got enough change 

I guess summat's gotta change, 

traffic light he stuntin in a range 

Imagine I'm sat lusting at the paint 

While the prostitute screamed that she never got paid 

Cuz she thinks that she never got raped 

She's still got the mind of a child 

That only happens when you never get raised 

Trapped in a cycle that you can never escape 

(woahh) 

And this shit used to burn me 

(burn me yeah) 

And that's why it's part of my verse B 

Sitting in a back of a cab, guess this is part of my journey 

(part of life) 

Cuz this shit used to burn me 

(oh yeah) 

And that's why it's part of my verse B 

(Ba ba ba la la) 

Sitting in the back if a cab, guess this is part of my journey yeah 

(Oh oh oh woah) 

[Chorus - Daley] 

Taking the long way home again 

Watching the world drag, in the rain 

There's motion but there's no change 

It's the same old, same old race till it's over yeah 

[Wretch 32] 

And these things used to burn me, but now they just part of my journey 

And these things used to burn me, but now they just part of my journey 

And these things used to burn me, but now they just part of my journey 

And these things used to burn me, but now they just part of my journey 

(Oh oh oh woah) 

[Chorus - Daley] 

Taking the long way home again 

Watching the world drag, in the rain 

There's motion but there's no change 

It's the same old, same old race till it's over yeah 

Taking the long way home again 

Because there's no way home from here 

Show me a side, 

I'll start making my own way back when it's over, over, over 

I'm making my own way
