Twan Lama - By Gone's Lyrics

Yea

In this world dog, all you got is God and Family
Everything else gone do what it do. By Gone's be By Gone's dog

Hard to comprehend how I do this on a daily
These trials and tribulations bout to drive a nigga crazy
Be worried bout my mama, know she lonely that's my baby
Got me plotting, I'm persistent and can't f*ck around with lazy's
Be discouraged by the system and the drama is deflating
Ups and downs for a real one on this marathon creating
In disarray with my approach, I'm tryna change yo way of thinking
Get you rich up in yo mind, not just the dollars that you seeking
Prep yo spirit, dip yo toes up in that water before you leap in
Risk it all with no regrets and carve yo name up in the cement
It's hard to see the picture when you phasing through them details
Scheming on my mission on them nights that I can't sleep well
Told my lady one day ima put her by them sea shells
Only 1 Lama, aint no bidding or no resale
Had this on my mind at 9 packing up them lunch pales
Lately I been on my grind, ain't got no time for cocktail
Roll a back, take a puff, deep breath let me exhale
Plottin on a mil getting braided like I'm Sprewell
Lately I been reading moe' ain't tryna have my brain frail
Illegal Lama season doe, store it in yo brain cells
Finding balance through risk and loss I then found my rhythm
Take a loss, I'm trading up getting better and bigger
Nigga quiet but aggressive, I respect myself
From the pain it be lessons like a hit from a belt
Got God at my head so I can't lose myself
On a fruit and veggie diet, I can't cheat myself
Meditate with Mary Jane is how I treat myself
Sending love to the haters cause you hate yo self
I then grew and lost some homies that's just how this shit go
Teach my son to keep it solid cause that's all that I know
Expect the bullshit but you stick to the script, ya know?
Got me riding down central bout to roll out the zip
I can't worry I then mastered my imagination
Speak my truth because I know it's God's declaration
I try to move with strategy and not by emotion
Ducking through tragedies got my eyes open
Remember I was 17 damn near losing focus
Dropped outta college and had my momma hopeless
Just another extroverted antisocial
I cope with verses, close my curtain when it's that time... nigga I'm gone

Aye what's up Lil Nephew, this yo Uncle Jay...
Alright, love you. Talk to you later..."
