Dead and Gone - T.I (Feat. Justin Timberlake)
|
|
Ay, lemme kick it to you right quick man
|
Not on some gangsta shit man on some real shit
|
Anybody who been through the same thing
|
I'm sure you feel the same way
|
|
Oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone
|
And oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone, dead and
|
|
Ever had one of them days wish you would have stayed home
|
Run into a group of niggas who gettin' their hate on
|
You walk by, they get wrong, you reply then shit get blown
|
Way out of proportion way past discussion
|
Just you against them, pick one then rush them
|
Figure you get jumped here that's next
|
They don't wanna stop there now they bustin'
|
|
Now you gushin', ambulance rushin'
|
You to the hospital with a bad concussion
|
Plus you hit four times but it hit yo spine
|
Paralyzed waist down and ya wheelchair bound
|
Never mind that now you lucky to be alive
|
Just thinkin' it all started fussin' wit three guys
|
Nigga pride in the way but your pride is the way you can fuck
|
Around get shot down any day
|
|
Niggas die everyday, all little bullshit
|
Dope money, dice games, ordinary hood shit
|
Could this be cuz of hip-hop music
|
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it?
|
Usually niggas don't know what to do when they back against the wall
|
So they just start shootin'
|
For red or for blue or for blow I guess
|
From Bankhead at the old projects
|
|
No more stress, now I'm straight
|
Now I get it, now I take time to think
|
Before I make mistakes just for my family stake
|
That part of me left yesterday
|
The heart of me is strong today
|
No regrets I'm blessed to say the old me dead and gone away
|
|
Oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone
|
And oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone, dead and
|
|
I ain't neva been scared, I live through tragic
|
Situations could been dead lookin' back at it
|
Most of that shit didn't even have to happen
|
But you don't think about it when you out there trappin'
|
In the apartments hangin', smokin' and rappin'
|
Niggas start shit next thing we know we cappin'
|
Get locked up then didn't even get mad
|
Now I think about that what a life I had
|
|
Most of that shit look back just laugh
|
Some shit still look back get sad
|
Thinkin' my home boy still be around
|
Had I not hit the nigga in the mouth that time
|
I won that fight I lost that war
|
I could still see my nigga walkin' out that door
|
Who would of thought I'd never see Philant no more
|
Got enough dead homies I don't want no more
|
|
Cuz a nigga his jump cost me more
|
I'd a took that ass whoopin' out for sure
|
Now think before I risk my life
|
Take them chances to get my stripes
|
A nigga put his hands on me alright
|
Otherwise stand there talk shit all night
|
Cuz I hit you and you sue me
|
I shoot you get locked up poor me
|
|
No more stress now I'm straight
|
Now I get it now I take time to think
|
Before I make mistake just for my family stake
|
That part of me left yesterday
|
The heart of me is strong today
|
No regrets I'm blessed to say the old me dead and gone away
|
|
Oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone
|
And oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone
|
|
I turn my head to the east, I don't see nobody by my side
|
I turn my head to the west, still nobody in sight
|
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
|
That old me's dead and gone but the new me will be alright
|
I turn my head to the east, I don't see nobody by my side
|
I turn my head to the west, still nobody in sight
|
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride
|
That old me's dead and gone but the new me will be alright, 'cause
|
|
Oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone
|
And oh hey, I've been travelin' on this road too long
|
Just tryin' to find my way back home
|
But the old me's dead and gone
|
Dead and gone, dead and
|
