[Intro]
Let me play, uh
I want to play some
Let's go
Haha, you know
Him
Ladies and gentlemen
The Road Back
Yeah, uh

[Verse 1]
They tried writing me off, but I never wrote back
The brakes over hiatus is finished, they want the GOAT back
All black with the slicked back, I got my glow back
But when you cut the buzz, it takes time for it to grow back (Yeah)
OGK, shout out my barber
Sometimes you need a restarter, sometimes you need a new partner
Sometimes you gotta step back and fix all the chinks in your armor
Somеtimes you feel like your on 2%, who got a charger? (Yеah)
Sometimes you gotta work smarter not harder
Playing Biggie, bigger money, the problems get larger
Walking through Manhattan like I'm Batman in Gotham at night
Fighting my own battles, but I guess that's what made me a martyr

[Chorus]
They saying, please come back to the game, the game needs you
Sorry for the time I been gone, ain't mean to leave you
Had to take time away to replenish and heal
But I'm back and better, nice to re-meet you
Yeah, nice to re-meet you
Haha, nice to re-meet you
Had to take time away to replenish and heal
But I'm back and better, nice to re-meet you
[Verse 2]
And this is not a run that back, it's not a redo
This is not a run out of gas, it's just a refuel
This is just a sample taste for what it leads to
It's not even an album track, it's just a preview (You hearing)
That it's just not the same, they really need you
They saying please come back home, they wanna see you
Cause no one gives y'all what y'all want, the way he do
No one wears Saint Laurent, the way he do
Woah, they trembling at the sight of
Gerald coming back when it's real, you can't buy love
The realest in the room and that goes for any room I'm inside of
Y'all cornball rappers I'm fucking tired of
Hate to leave you guessing, but you just can't rush perfection
And I had to do this my way, playing Frank before this session
Had to get this off my chest, and no I don't need no suggestion
I'd never give my spot up, feel like Logan from Succession, straight up

[Bridge]
Come on baby, come on baby, come on baby
Y'all go to Columbia tomorrow, n***a
Let's go-go-go-go-go
Yeah, uh

[Chorus]
They saying, please come back to the game, the game needs you
Sorry for the time I been gone, ain't mean to leave you
Had to take time away to replenish and heal
But I'm back and better, nice to re-meet you
Yeah, nice to re-meet you
Haha, nice to re-meet you
Had to take time away to replenish and heal
But I'm back and better, nice to re-meet you
