Dead & Gone Lyrics by T.I. T.I. , Justin Timberlake
Below, you will find the lyrics for Dead & Gone by T.I..
Ay
Let me kick it to you right quick
Partner
Not as a gangsta as a grown man
What matters more
Than the mistakes you made
Is what you able to learn from it
Big Phil
This for you pimpin'
Ohhhh, hey
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
And
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
Hey, Ay
Ever had one of them days
Wish you woulda stayed home
Run into a group of suckers
Who gettin' they hate on
You walk by
They get wrong
You reply then things get blown
Way outta proportion
Way past discussion
Just you against them
Pick one then rush 'em
Figure you get jumped, hell
That's nothin', so
They don't wanna stop
There now they bussin'
Now you gushin'
Ambulance rushin'
You to the hospital
With a bad concussion
Plus you hit 4 times
Bullet hit your spine
Paralyzed waist down
Now your wheel chair bound
Nevermind 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 mess around
Get shot, die anyday
People die everyday
All over nonsense
Dirty money
Dice game, stash box contents
Could this be 'cause of hip hop music?
Or did the ones with the good
Sense not use it?
Usually
People 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 up to 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
Ohhhh, hey
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
And
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
Heey
I ain't never been scared
I lived through tragedy
Situation coulda been dead
Lookin' back at it
Most of that stuff
Didn't even have to happen
But you don't think about it
When you out there trappin'
In apartments, hangin'
Smokin', and rappin'
Suckers start some next thing
You know we at it
Get locked up
Then didn't even get mad
Now think about damn
What a life I had
Most of that stuff
Look back, just laugh
Some stuff still look back get sad
Maybe my homeboy
Still be around
Had I not hit the sucker
In the mouth that time
I won that fight
I lost that war
I can still see my homie
Walkin' out that door
Who'da thought
I'd never see Philant no more?
Got enough dead homies
I don't want no more
I have paid with his jaw
But he cost me more
I shoud have walk off
Took that laws for sure
Now think before I risk my life
Take them chances to get my stripe
Somebody put his hands on me alright
Otherwise stand there talk all night
'Cause I hit you
And you sue me
I shoot you
Get 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
Ohhhh, hey
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
And
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
Ay, ay
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, 'cause
Ohhhh, hey
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
And
I've been travellin' on this road
Too long
Too long
Just tryna find my way back home
Back home
The old me is dead and gone
Dead and gone
Hey-ey
