Gone

Hey, wooo, ooh
Hey, yeah, ooh now

If I had one wish, that wish would be clear
That I would not have to go, that I could stay here
And although it hurts me to leave you all alone
Just know I'll come back to you, for now I am gone

For now I am gone, for now I am gone
(Gone)
For now I am gone, for now I am, gone
(For now I am gone)

For now I am gone, for now I am gone
(Gone)
For now I am gone, for now I am gone
(For now I am gone)

When I'm dead and gone don't even worry
Don't mourn me too long, death'll get you discouraged
Keepin' your vision blurry, prison and mentally hurtin'
I know it for certain if I'm really restin' in heaven

No need for you to fear, don't cry
'Cause death won't forever have a grip on our lives
So I'ma be comin', be ready for the next shine
'Cause I'm a believer that I'll see a resurrection

Don't believe that I'll burn in hell
I study the scriptures and they learn me well
No trippin', no drippin', no purgatory I dwell
I sleep, I rest in piece 'til I prevail

It's just a temporary lay down, I won't forever stay down
So keep me in your memory, don't let me fade out
I'll probably never see you at the crossroads
Guess I was wrong, I'm gone, gone, long gone

If I had one wish, that wish would be clear
That I would not have to go, that I could stay here
And although it hurts me to leave you all alone
Just know I'll come back to you, for now I am gone

We hit the road back in 1993
Had a vision like a prophet, the project was go see
The logic was so deep, I come back and do a lotta good
I heard the callin' so I headed out to Hollywood

One way tickets, my niggaz and no fear
Some said that we was trippin, the mission was so clear
Don't wanna go there, the money was over there
I still love ya 9-9, I miss ya St. Clair

Yeah, now I'm movin on a roller coaster
Just ridin', tryin' to be Jehovah's soldier
And I'm grindin', tryin' to make it better for ya
So for now I best be gone, be gone

I made a vow to change the world somehow
I'ma impact it and see it in this lifetime
On the dark road to bring back the sunshine
But for now I'm gone, I gotta go get it

If I had one wish, that wish would be clear
That I would not have to go, that I could stay here
And although it hurts me to leave you all alone
Just know I'll come back to you, for now I am gone

If it's out there to get, then I'ma go and get it
Get it 'til I got nothin' left, chasin' better livin'
It's a 'tinuous mission so I'm steady movin'
And I gotta get it in, never settle for losin'

I'm a thug true, add to or get out the way
You could settle for less but I need more on my plate
Eatin' good, family good
Okay 'til that day I'ma get up and move, move

Show my babies how the thug do, ooh
I'ma play it like it's my last game
If it's due better give it up right away
'Cause a thug nigga's gonna bring pressure

See me fucked up, starvin' nigga, never
And as long as niggaz out here gettin' paid
Back to my old ways, who they gonna run and tell, huh?
It's a street thang, c'mon

If I had one wish, that wish would be clear
That I would not have to go, that I could stay here
And although it hurts me to leave you all alone
Just know I'll come back to you, for now I am gone

Yeah, we ready, back up in 'em with nothin' but the harmony rhythm
Hard hittin' flows all we give 'em
Flows that spit venom, no cop, there goes the end of 'em
Ever since the beginnin' we winnin' it

Get a glimpse of legends standin' on deck
'Til we come we'll be here holdin' down the set
Keep on wonderin' what the Bone 'bout to do next
Still they humble and the hungriest, God bless

The fan fam flex all across the U.S.
Overseas and Tel Aviv and back west
You know we go the hardest, no need to say
We better than the rest, it's obvious more or less

Came down off my high from the wet
When I had to do a stretch, I signed so I cashed the check
Had me caught up in a game, insane, my head blown
What's goin' on 'cause ain't nobody home

If I had one wish, that wish would be clear
That I would not have to go, that I could stay here
And although it hurts me to leave you all alone
Just know I'll come back for you, for now I am gone

For now I am gone, for now I am gone
(Gone)
For now I am gone, for now I am, gone
(For now I am gone)

For now I am gone, for now I am gone
(Gone)
For now I am gone, for now I am gone
(For now I am gone)

Gone, I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm so gone, ooh yeah, I'm so gone
