Gone with the Wind (Prod. Purplex)

from Young​-​Black​-​Ambitious by Top Billion

/

about

I wrote this song on my kitchen table at home alone in Monroe, LA. It's just a hardbody track. To me, this song is the purest rap track on the album. I also love how the 2nd verse kicks off.

Shoutout to Purplex for hooking me up with this banger.

lyrics

"Gone with the Wind"

(Chorus)
I'm goin' in my nigga I'm goin' in (In),
Just tell me when and I'm gone with the wind (Wind),
Tired catchin' Ls it's time that I win (Win),
So now I'm 'bout to grind harder than I ever did (Did),
Yeah I'm goin' in my nigga (Yeah I'm gone with the wind),
I'm goin' in my nigga (Yeah I'm gone with the wind),
I'm goin' in my nigga (Yeah I'm gone with the wind),
I'm goin' in my nigga (Yeah I'm gone with the wind)

(Verse 1)
You niggas don't know hard work outside of your yardwork,
I'm writin' these raw verses 'til my arms hurt,
Top Billion the best rapper that's on Earth,
But few people know it time to show it like concerts,
Sick of being second class nigga time to get this cash,
Livin' trash in the past when my mind on tasks,
250 on the dash that's my life fast,
Pray I don't crash when I mash on the gas,
Straight from Auburn Ave outta the bottom,
I shock 'em when I got 'em acknowledgin' I'm a problem,
Real southerner droppin' sick lyrics not floppin',
With all that dancin' poppin' I got nothin' in common,
I'm the dopest, son, the opus one,
I'm up early gettin' it like when white folks run,
The work's never done I'm out chasin' funds,
If the fat lady sung all that's left is crumbs

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
I'm gettin' the money nothin' funny to me,
'Cause to laugh cost a fee and nothin' comin' for free,
Big rings big chains 23s on the V,
All cost piece of mind and T-I-M-E,
Nothin' overnight sho' you right I recall the coldest nights,
When I didn't flow this tight and I wasn't known on mics,
Now I'm tryna own this ice and I put it on my life,
I'm payin' any price fuck the roll of dice,
No chance taken my pants vacant of Benjamins,
I'm gettin' it in until I'm rich as Eminem,
Top Bill and hard work those two are synonyms,
Beats I'm killin' 'em as Purplex send 'em in,
Fuck these critics talkin' 'bout I'm over my prime,
Like "Based on a True Story" when I only had shine,
They must be blind I've truly grown in my rhymes,
Whatever I'mma show 'em all in due time

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Third verse killa I'm relentless,
Can't wait to see a cracka face when we in them Benzes,
Used to get suspended by the school superintendent,
Now I'm eyeing houses she couldn't of rented,
Said it and I meant it I was gonna be a billionaire,
That's why it's in my name so we always see it there,
I never had a care about opinions on my status,
I knew my potential when they thought I didn't have it,
I'm pennin' all these classics you could make a mad list,
More dope on my tracklist than Jeezy got ad-libs,
God not savage knowledge of self,
But always felt I needed bezels in my belt,
What else you expect I'm from the slum sewer,
Where we live in poverty lower than dung manure,
I'm hustlin' on ten to not live like them,
So if you lookin' for me friend I'm gone with the wind

(Chorus)
