g-eazy - when you're gone lyrics
[intro: g-eazy]
shoutout dakari
shoutout ash, shoutout jessie, shoutout the game
it’s like we always do it this time
take it to myself like, yeah, uh, uh
[verse 1: g-eazy & lil wayne]
starin’ at a blank canvas
thinkin’ about what should i write, should i plan this?
reminiscing 18, freshman on campus
with dreams so big, n0body understands us
’til they came true, started goin’ bananas
somewhere along the road, i got us as lost as atlantis
been there since vegas, drinking under cabanas
and medicine for breakups, take the pills [?]
no sleep, i been up for a couple o’ days
can’t n0body talk to him, i’m stuck in my ways
they say it’s “unsustainable,” but f-ck it, it pays
results and results, keep runnin’ them plays
i see the writings on the wall, that sh-t’s getting clear
my new girl says she love me, but i don’t even hear her
i can’t even drive a jag’, that sh-t is inferior
only time i see a threat, when (yeah) i look in the mirror
[chorus: lil wayne & g-eazy]
they’ll only love you (ay) when you gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, (uh) yuh (you know ’em)
but i did it on my own
so i’d rather be alone, yeah (i’d rather be alone)
yeah, they only love you when you’re gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, yeah
well i got it on my own, so i’d rather die alone (yeah)
[verse 2: g-eazy & lil wayne]
yeah, the greatest gift is knowledge itself
they fail to talk about my journey with mission and wealth
i made it here all by my lonely, no askin’ for help
what if my debut never dropped and got kept up on a shelf
uh, finna [?] slowly
a black leather, sl!cked back, they want the old g
“things are happening again,” that’s what they told me
i came home, full circle, not as an og
blink my eyes to my surprise, i’m in tokyo
20,000 in the crowd singing every quote
blink again and they kickin’ me outta canada
i swear you wouldn’t have the stomach or the stamina
yeah, my shoulders carry over 20 tons
biggie said there’s more problems when the money comes
my songs speak to the greats, hear the one-on-one
i’ma go out as a legend (yeah) when it’s said and done
[chorus: lil wayne & g-eazy]
(wuh) they’ll only love you when you gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, (where you goin’, uh) yuh
but i did it on my own (on my own)
so i’d rather be alone, yeah (i’d rather be alone)
yeah, they only love you when you’re gone (yeah)
it don’t matter where you goin’, yeah
well i got it on my own, so i’d rather die alone
[verse 3: g-eazy & lil wayne]
yeah, they say fortune only favors the bold
stacks so big, i can’t get this paper to fold
north oakland, north pole, we came from the cold
solidify my legacy when my story is told
yeah, spent a ticket on this new dior
f-ck a hit, this sh-t is what i do it for
so these bars will always be apart of me
right now, i feel like track 2 on tha carter iii
uh, like i’m 2008 nola
this sh-t is bubblin’ and i don’t even drink soda
the whole industry was givin’ me a cold shoulder
and now my record label needs me to make quota
uh, this is all facts and every bar is real
in twenty years, pray to god i’m makin’ art still
i’m letting everything go like a yard sale
’cause my songs will beat longer (yeah) than my heart will, uh
[chorus: lil wayne]
they’ll only love you when you gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, yuh
but i did it on my own
so i’d rather be alone, yeah
yeah, they only love you when you’re gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, yeah
well i got it on my own, so i’d rather die alone (i’d rather die alone)
[verse 4: lil wayne]
who put this sh-t together?
i put this sh-t together
i’ma wear all my chains like some olympic medals
they think it’s all a game, so i’m thinking winning record
they think it kurt cobain, but i’m thinking living legend
i’m straight to the hall of fame straight from the hallways of the ghetto
it’s f-ck the world, f-ck 12, since i was like 10-11
i built the whole f-cking mountain, i started out wit a pebble
that money talk, that’s a convo
if you broke then that’s a lecture
i does me, ’cause only god can judge me
n-gga, trust me, only i can trust me
yeah, it’s just me, and the skies above me
but i dug deep, i told you eyes will come see
will they love me when i’m gone?
will they know me?
do they love me when i’m home or when i’m o.t.?
i’m here i don’t know how long before i won’t be
so when i’m gone, how long will they want me? (yeah)
[chorus: lil wayne]
they’ll only love you when you gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, yuh (matter where you goin’)
but i did it on my own
so i’d rather be alone, yeah (alone, yeah)
yeah, they only love you when you’re gone
it don’t matter where you goin’, yeah (don’t matter where you goin’)
well i got it on my own, so i’d rather die alone (i’d rather die alone)
[outro: lil wayne]
yeah
eazy, eazy
mula
yeah
they only love you when you (only love you when you)
(only love you when you)
