It's Been A Long Time Lyrics - Singles - Dead Or Alive

Yeah you know, we always tryin to get this money, that's what we do 

It ain't easy but I'm tellin you, it ain't hard either 

All you gotta do is keep hustlin man, don't ever give up 

I don't care what it is, handle yo' biz 

Forget about the woulda, coulda, and if I did's 

Cause that's just the past, you know it never lasts 

And you know how time flies by so fast 

Look at rap music, they said it was a fad 

But now it's takin over, and I'm so glad 

Cause I never stopped rappin, but that's what I do 

If you quit yo' thang, you might never find the truth 

I had choices in life, I coulda did somethin else 

I did what I wanted to, I did it for myself 

Now whatcha gon' do with yo' life 

People try to tell you what to do, it's yo' life 

You better make the most of it, live to the fullest 

Think positive and don't dwell on the BULLSHIT 

I can't tell you no better 

If you thinkin 'bout quittin, don't ever

Every Lyric From Shawn Mendes' Self-Titled New Album 

Don't ever give up, I know it ain't workin 

It's been a long time, you never stop tryin 

But you can't quit, you gotta keep goin 

You already knowin, you can't give up 

Don't ever give up, give it all you got 

It only gets better, never say never 

You know you can't quit, you gotta keep goin 

You already knowin, you can't give up, you just cain't 

Comin up is hard, givin up is easy 

You always get the game from your homey Too Sheezy 

I keep it so real, never spit it false 

I hope you make it big and if you ever fall off 

Remember these words, it's only what you make it 

Anything is possible you want it better take it 

I ain't talkin 'bout stealin, felonies'll ruin it 

Stupid all I'm talkin 'bout is takin opportunities 

Doors open up and when you get another chance 

Either hold up the wall, or get out there and dance 

It's on you, do what you wanna do 

You know why everybody always punkin you 

Talkin shit they know you're bluffin, won't do nothin 

Sittin on the shelf like Stove Top Stuffin 

I know you had enough and want to call it quits 

Believe me, this ain't it 

Photos 

Don't ever give up, I know it ain't workin 

It's been a long time, you never stop tryin 

But you can't quit, you gotta keep goin 

You already knowin, you can't give up 

Don't ever give up, give it all you got 

It only gets better, never say never 

You know you can't quit, you gotta keep goin 

You already knowin, you can't give up, you just cain't 

Isn't hard to see, use your eyes 

It's time to tell the truth, cause we through witcha lies 

Utilize all your steppin stones, gotta be prepared 

Sittin 'round dreamin how you bout to be a player 

The years and the time fly, you ain't even workin 

Went by overnight you went from 18 to 30 

Nothin goin on, never set a goal 

Dreams can't come true, and now you gettin old 

You start to represent, everything you hate 

But don't give up, cause it's never too late 

All you need is a plan, a purpose and a motto 

And quit livin life like you 'bout to hit the lotto 

Get rich on your own, buy a new home 

Keep your real friends, leave them haters alone 

I see you when you get there, rollin to the bank 

I know you cain't let go, I know you cain't 

Don't ever give up, I know it ain't workin 

It's been a long time, you never stop tryin 

But you can't quit, you gotta keep goin 

You already knowin, you can't give up 

Don't ever give up, give it all you got 

It only gets better, never say never 

You know you can't quit, you gotta keep goin 

You already knowin, you can't give up, you just cain't 

Nah we can't give up, gotta keep hustlin for life baby 

It's hard on the black man, tryin to get my stack together y'know? 

Big thangs
