So Far Ahead ᐳ Empire Lyrics – Gunna

[Part I: So Far Ahead]

[Intro]
Yeah (Taurus)
Yeah (Run it back, Turbo)

[Chorus]
We made it, when it's all said
Through scars and tears
I know I had a hard head
Couldn't tell you when it started, yeah
It's dark here, I know we was so far ahead
I know we was so far ahead

[Verse 1]
I'm glad I make my own noise, putting in that work
I done became a rich man, I was a poor boy
Super lit with rich friends, that coupe a grown toy
Come get it if you want it, boy
Did it with a voice
No remorse, glad I made a choice
Now we whipping Rolls-Royce
They can find another source, yeah, no endorsements
I think it's best they join forces
It's funny, ain't that something
That they said I won't be nothing?
Thought you'd reap the benefits
Instead it's repercussions
You ain't cared or tried to hear me speak
Instead you judging
I cried myself to sleep
When I'm just thinking 'bout my cousin
They gave him life
They lost a life and both the families suffering
He down but he ain't take his life
It's always a discussion
This money ain't gone end or feel the way
I show my loving
This money disappear
I got real friends that still gone love me

[Chorus]
We made it, when it's all said
Through scars and tears
I know I had a hard head
Couldn't tell you when it started, yeah
It's dark here, I know we was so far ahead (Yeah)
I know we was so far ahead (Yeah)
I know we was so far ahead

[Verse 2]
Money in the bank, we been getting plenty
Lemme pop my sh!t, ah, I could pop a wheelie
SVJ 'Ventador, top off on the 'Ghini
Pretty face on that beach, a topless bikini
We both like to get high and if I'm Bobby, she my Whitney
That G5 in the sky and I can land in any city
They told me, "Don't let up, "
But now I'm up and you don't hear me
The world depend on us, you got my trust until infinity
So secured, I keep my F&N tucked 'cause I got enemies
I'm just tryna remain rich as f**k, and you know how that be
Getting it in, back like
When they used to get it like ten a key
Business man, got my business plan inside a Louis brief'

[Chorus]
We made it, when it's all said
Through scars and tears
I know I had a hard head
Couldn't tell you when it started, yeah
It's dark here, I know we was so far ahead (Yeah)
I know we was so far ahead (Yeah)
I know we was so far ahead

[Part II: Empire]

[Intro]
Found, yeah, it's been found
Yeah, yeah-yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah-yeah

[Chorus]
Praying that we get the cream, uh
That we living out our dreams
And the whole world ours
Plenty bosses in the team
We bust it down, don't need degree
Tryna build an empire
I separate my wants and needs
I'm booked out way in Germany
And the prices getting higher
I'm peeping out my frenemies
That lil' hoe sh!t, it don't mean nothing to me
All the hate, why you ain't tired?

[Verse 1]
Young Gunna got a preference
She eat that d!ck for breakfast
You see I'm interested
I wanna f**k your best friend
I'm counting up with profession
And got good sense of direction
Keep my n!ggas on the kiosk
Can't slide while I pull that Bentley B out
Windows fishbowl, seeing the sea, ah
GT, not a Fiat, I'm serious just like T.I
Rose gold stones, yeah, in the night look like a neon
If players talking hoes you know
I'm catching sh!t like Deion
And I was broke but I ain't going back
I thank the G-O-D I got all these racks
You call my phone too much at once?
You ain't gone never hear back
Hopefully you get that business done
And then you go lay on your back
I was born to win, Lord forgive me
Might have to sin again
It's crazy, but you set a trend
Lotta n!ggas need a name
It's crazy, but you set a trend
I'm knocking, baby, let me in
I need a angel, not a friend
Protection that’ll never end

[Chorus]
Praying that we get the cream, uh
That we living out our dreams
And the whole world ours
Plenty bosses in the team
We bust it down, don't need degree
Tryna build an empire
I separate my wants and needs
I'm booked out way in Germany
And the prices getting higher
I'm peeping out my frenemies
That lil' hoe sh!t, it don't mean nothing to me
All the hate, why you ain't tired?

[Verse 2]
I've always been official
I never did no knock off
I pulled up with the roof on and she told me
"Take the top off"
I'm tryna get my rocks off
She sucking with her socks off
Lil' mami got that lockjaw
She can’t figure me out, I ain't no jigsaw
In the streets, I played for keeps
I learned to lay low
Shoot sh!t up like Halo
She stay in Beverly Hills
But the rest of her family in San Diego
One of the ones to keep it real 'til this day, though
