lyrics

So Gone

(Chorus)
Ok, you might not know it now or even realize,
But things would be different if I wasn’t alive,
You can take me for granted and push me to the side,
But hopefully you’ll recognize before I die,
And I’ll be be so gone (so gone 6x)
And I’ll be be so gone (so gone 6x)

(Verse 1)
Please, freeze, think-- everybody stop:
Where would niggas be really if it wasn’t for Top,
Lotta you niggas stuck in the same spot,
Tryna come up but don’t got enough guap,
I try to help way more than a lot and a lot of you won’t even give me my props,
Some of ya’ll niggas don’t even have a chance,
Some of ya’ll still tryna come up with a dance,
I showed you a better way not by chance,
And you still wanna stick to the same old plan,
Can’t care for yourself you ain’t no man,
Grown men don’t need to hold no hands,
Use your head you got two legs now put ‘em to purpose: stand,
I do what I want you do what you can,
You’re still out looking for a helping hand,
I’m using my hands to grip a grand and own some land; fuck with me, man,
Can’t none of you niggas here fuck with me, man,
And if I wasn’t here they’d be fucking you, man,
Holdin’ the light in front of, man; now, follow the path not follow my ass,
What… What… What about that don’t you seem to understand?
Unless you got your own people gon’ always serve you underhand,
What… What… What about this don’t you seem to understand?
If I wasn’t here look at your options on the other hand (yeeeah)

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
Ok, Ok, Uh
Please, freeze, everybody quit: hittin’ me up when you need a lift in my whip,
I ain’t nobody’s taxi it’s ok if you ask me but don’t get mad at me if I say no actually,
You my nigga practically but even that has boundaries you can’t always count on me,
To come through when you hound on me,
Everyone that’s down with me needs to be their own man,
Act like you’re grown, man, I can’t hold no hands,
I’m from a no-man’s land; no one can succeed ‘cause crabs pull you back in can,
I come through and try to make oasis out of the sand,
But, niggas still drink the water out the cactuses, man,
Damn, what’s a nigga supposed to what should a nigga think?
Should I still put on or is my time a waste?
What’s a nigga supposed to do what should a nigga think?
Are ya’ll catching on or is this a waste?

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Ok
Please, freeze, you people should recall: how much I did for ya’ll to get back nothing at all,
I opened up my doors so niggas could come and flow,
Even after they stole the studio never closed,
You know how much I fell back? Camera and my phone jacked!
And whoever took them things I ain’t been told that,
I went to pick up some people that had four flats,
Held straps, and rode for niggas that ain’t rode back,
Been a good guy to girls that have been wack,
That run to ex’s that treat her like Kat Stacks,
I ain’t bitter ‘bout my past ‘cause I’m passed that,
But, when I think about it, I deserve a hand clap,
Atleast a backslap for each of my good deeds,
That I did for certain folk that don’t deserve a damn thing,
Top Billion CMG: I’m a damn king,
And if I died this country would fall to anarchy

(Chorus)
