Dead And Gone - 群星
Oh
I've been travelin' on this road too long
Just tryin' to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone dead and gone
Oh
Ever had one of them days you
Wish you would've stayed home
Run into a group of niggas
Who gettin' they hate on
You walk by
They get wrong
You reply
Then sh*t get blown
Way outta proportion
Way past discussion
Just you against them
Pick one then rush 'em
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're hit four times
Bullet hit your spine
Paralyzed waist down
Now you wheelchair bound
Never mind that now
You lucky to be alive
Just think it all started you fussin' with three guys
Now your pride in the way
But your pride is the way
You could f**k around
Get shot die any day
Niggas die everyday
All over b******t d**e money
Dice game ordinary hood sh*t
Could this be cos of hip hop music
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it
Usually niggas don't know what to do
When their back against the wall
So they just start shootin'
For red or for blue or for blow I guess
From Bankhead or from your 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's sake
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
I've been travelin' on this road too long
Just tryin' to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone dead and gone
Oh
I never been scared
I lived through tragic situations
Could've been dead lookin' back at it
Most of that sh*t didn't even have to happen
But you don't think about it
When you out there trappin'
In apartments hangin' smokin' and rappin'
Niggas start sh*t
Next thing you know we cappin'
Get locked up then didn't even get mad
Now I think about Damn
What a life I had
Most of that sh*t
Look back just laugh
Some sh*t still look back get sad
Maybe my homeboy still be around
Had I not hit the ni**a in the mouth that time
I won't that fight
I lost that war
I can still see my ni**a walkin' out that door
Who would've thought
I'd never see Philant no more
Got enough dead homies
I don't want no more
Cost a ni**a his job
Cost me more
I had took
That a** whippin' now for sure
Now I think before I risk my life
Take them chances to get my stripe
A ni**a put his hands on me alright
Otherwise stand there talk sh*t all night
'Cos I hit you you sue me
I shoot you locked up who me
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's sake
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
I've been travelin' on this road too long
Just tryin' to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone dead and gone
Oh
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 is dead and gone
But that 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 is dead and gone
But that new me will be alright
Oh
I've been travelin' on this road too long
Just tryin' to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone dead and gone
Oh
Oh
I've been travelin' on this road too long
Just tryin' to find my way back home
The old me is dead and gone dead and gone
Oh
