Текст G-Eazy, Lil Wayne — When You’re Gone

[Intro: G-Eazy]
Shoutout Dakari
Shoutout Ed, shoutout Jessie, shoutout The Game
It’s like we always do it this time
Thinkin’ to myself like, yeah, uh

[Verse 1: G-Eazy & Lil Wayne]
Starin’ at a blank canvas
Thinkin’ ’bout what should I write, should I plan this?
Reminiscin’ 18, a freshman on campus
With dreams so big, nobody understands us
‘Til they came true, started goin’ bananas
Somewhere along the road, I got as lost as Atlantis
Been there since Vegas, drinkin’ under cabanas
And medicine for breakups, take the pills life hand us
No sleep, I been up for a couple of days
Can’t nobody talk to him, been stuck in my ways
They say, «It’s unsustainable,» but fuck it, it pays
Results and results, keep runnin’ them plays
I see the writing’s on the wall, that shit’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 shit is inferior
Only time I see a threat, when (Yeah) I look in the mirror

[Chorus: Lil Wayne & G-Eazy]
They only love you (Ay) when you gone
It don’t matter where you goin’, (Uh) yuh (You know)
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, Uh)
Well, I got it on my own, so I’d rather die alone (Yeah)

[Verse 2: G-Eazy]
Yeah, the greatest gift is knowledge itself
They fail to talk about my journey when mentionin’ 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, from the soil, grew it slowly
All black, leather, slicked back, they want the old G
«Things are happenin’ 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
Twenty thousand in the crowd singin’ 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 twenty tons
Biggie said it’s more problems when the money comes
My songs speak to the greats, yeah the one-of-ones
I’ma go out as a legend when it’s said and done

[Chorus: Lil Wayne & G-Eazy]
They only love you when you gone
It don’t matter where you goin’, (Where you go, 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: Lil Wayne]
Who put this shit together? I put this shit together
I’ma wear all my chains like some Olympic medals
They think it’s all a game, so I’m thinkin’ winnin’ record
They thinkin’ Kurt Cobain, but I’m thinkin’ living legend
I’m straight to the Hall of Fame from the hallways of the ghetto
It’s fuck the world, fuck 12, since I was like 10-11
I built the whole fuckin’ mountain, I started out with 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
Nigga, trust me, only I can trust me
Yeah, it’s just me, and the skies above me
But I dug deep, now close your eyes and 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 & G-Eazy]
They only love you when you gone
It don’t matter where you goin’, yeah (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 (Wayne, I appreciate you more than you’ll ever understand)
It don’t matter where you goin’, yeah (You know, a hero of mine)
Well, I got it on my own, so I’d rather die alone (Uh)
